On May 15, the GBP/USD pair managed to break down the lower limit of the bullish BLUE channel depicted on the chart. Since then, the pair has been moving within the triangle pattern after having a quick bearish swing between 1.6300 and 1.5260.
Price level of 1.5767 which corresponds to the upper limit of the symmetrical triangle, constituted an intraday resistance for the pair as expected.
Recently, the GBP/USD pair has found a significant support at the lower limit of the triangle pattern around 1.5490 showing obvious bullish price action which is manifested in the bullish engulfing daily candlestick followed by days of indecision as depicted on the chart.
Yesterday, GBP/USD tested the upper limit of the depicted triangle around the price level of 1.5730 showing a significant bearish price action manifested in the inverted hammer daily candlestick which enhances the bearish view of the pair in the mid-term.
