The Pound Sterling lost ground versus the Greenback on Wednesday following the release of US housing data, which highlights the sector's weakness, yet the buck trades at around 8-week highs, as shown by the US Dollar Index (DXY). The GBP/USD trades at 1.2642, down 0.34%.
In Tuesday’s article, I wrote, “The pair formed a ‘bullish piercing’ pattern, hinting that traders could challenge the next resistance seen at 1.2700, yet buyers remain reluctant to lift the GBP/USD towards that level.”
The GBP/USD was unable to reach 1.2700 and has broken below Tuesday’s low of 1.2670, printing a new weekly low of 1.2627, after a three-candlestick chart pattern ‘evening star’ emerged.
Momentum supports sellers, as shown by the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which remains bearish and aims lower.
Therefore, the GBP/USD path of least resistance is downwards. It will face the next support level at the 50-DMA at 1.2636. Once that area is surpassed, the psychological 1.2600 mark will follow, ahead of the 200-DMA at 1.2555.
For a bullish continuation, traders must claim 1.2700 and clear a previous support trendline turned resistance at around 1.2730/40.

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
