GBP/USD Technical Analysis: 1.2800 unlikely to see much bullish momentum

  • Intraday GBP/USD action sees the Cable sharply off of near-term highs with market flows getting driven purely by Brexit headlines.
  • GBP/USD Forecast: UK political turmoil adds to Brexit uncertainties and should now cap any meaningful up-move

GBP/USD Chart, 5-Minute

  • The past couple of weeks have seen the impact of Brexit wrangling on the GBP/USD, with the pair knocking to the downside of 1.2800, and bullish recovery attempts are quickly running into overbought near-term technical indicators.

GBP/USD Chart, 30-Minute

  • The past two months shows the GBP/USD dipping into critical lows near late October's bottoms, and despite the technical leaning for a bullish recovery, a steady stream of Brexit headlines will make it difficult for intraday buyers to bid the Cable safely, and charts are showing safety in a medium-term bearish stance.
