GBP/USD has struggled to gather recovery momentum after UK inflation data. As FXStreet’s Eren Sengezer notes, the next bearish target aligns at 1.3530.
“The UK's Office for National Statistics announced that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) climbed to 5.4% on a yearly basis in December from 5.1% in November. This print surpassed the market forecast of 5.2% but the Producer Price Index - Input (PPI) declined to 13.5% from 15.2% in the same period, not allowing GBP/USD to gain traction.”
“GBP/USD needs to hold above 1.3600 (Fibonacci 23.6% retracement level of the one-month uptrend) and confirm it as support in order to shake off the bearish pressure. 1.3640 (20-period SMA, 50-period SMA) align as the next hurdles.”
“Additional losses toward 1.3530 (Fibonacci 38.2% retracement) could be witnessed if a four-hour candle closes below 1.3570, where the 100-period SMA is located.”
