Every read JAFX AI made on the GBP/USD daily chart that day, newest first: trend, structure, the levels it marked and what it said to watch.

21:02 UTC

Range, recovering off June lows · RSI 60 · price 1.34912

Range 1.3400-1.3500, capped below 1.3555.

Cable has clawed back from the mid-June low near 1.3140 and now trades at the top of a multi-week 1.3400-1.3500 range, holding above a flattening-to-rising EMA(50). Friday's shock -23K US NFP was the driver of the pop to the 3-week high at 1.3506 rather than any sterling strength, and price closed just under the 1.3500 pivot. Two months of failure below the 1.3555 upside cap keeps this a range read, with support layered at 1.3410 and the 1.3280 swing low beneath.

Support: 1.3410, 1.3280

Resistance: 1.3506, 1.3555

What it said to watch

  • US CPI (Aug 12) is the next major catalyst for this USD-driven move
  • UK GDP (Aug 13) is the first domestic sterling test
  • Daily close above 1.3555 upside cap would end the range read
  • Failure to hold 1.3410 support reopens the 1.3280 swing low

21:02 UTC

Range-bound, testing range top · RSI 56 · price 1.34912

4-month range 1.315-1.365, price at upper edge.

GBPUSD remains locked in a broad 1.315-1.365 range that has held since April. Cable popped above 1.3500 to 3-week highs after Friday's -23K US NFP miss but closed back below at 1.34912 — a rejection at the pivot that leaves it at the range top. RSI near 56 with price above rising EMA20 and EMA50; this is a USD-driven bounce rather than sterling strength.

Support: 1.3410, 1.3140

Resistance: 1.3506, 1.3555, 1.3658

What it said to watch

  • Daily close above 1.3555 opens the path back toward the April high at 1.3658
  • A break below 1.3410 flips the near-term structure lower
  • US CPI (Wed Aug 12) and UK GDP (Aug 13) could materially shift this read
