17:00 UTC
Recovery from multi-week low, momentum building · RSI 56 · price 1.34752
Lower-high broken, attempting higher-low base.
Price has carved a double bottom around 1.3315–1.3367 over the past two weeks and is now pressing the recent swing high at 1.3488 after a clean impulsive bar off 1.3409. EMA20 has crossed back above price action while EMA50 caps overhead near 1.3500, defining the next zone to monitor. ATR(14) at ~39 pips reflects a normalised regime after the early-month expansion lower.
Support: 1.3409, 1.3367, 1.3315
Resistance: 1.3488, 1.3544
What it said to watch
H4 close above 1.3488 session high opens path toward 1.3544 prior pivot
Failure at 1.3488 and reclaim of 1.3409 reactivates the swing low at 1.3367
Iran/Hormuz headlines remain a USD wildcard and could override the structural read
Lower highs since mid-window peak, basing near 1.3400.
GBPUSD has rolled over from the 1.3653 range high, printing a clean sequence of lower highs and a swing low at 1.3316 before basing in the 1.3400–1.3450 zone. Price is capped by the EMA20 near 1.3450 and trades below the EMA50, with RSI mid-40s reflecting weak but not extreme downside momentum. Bailey's cautious tone earlier helped drag cable to the session low near 1.3408.
Support: 1.3408, 1.3316, 1.3315
Resistance: 1.3450, 1.3508, 1.3653
What it said to watch
H4 close above 1.3508 prior high would break the lower-high sequence
Loss of 1.3316 swing low confirms continuation of the downtrend
Soft German CPI and US trade data could reshape USD tone into next session

Downtrend, attempting base · RSI 43 · price 1.34228
Lower highs from 1.3653, basing near 1.3380.
Sequence of lower highs from 1.3653 through 1.3488 to 1.3463 confirms a downtrend on H4, with price now basing in a 1.3367-1.3463 range below both EMA20 and EMA50. The mid-month flush to 1.3315 found buyers and the subsequent recovery has stalled at the 1.3460 swing high, leaving the structure compressing rather than reversing. ATR has eased into the low-30 pip area, consistent with a range-bound read until a clean break of either edge.
Support: 1.33673, 1.3315, 1.3295
Resistance: 1.34629, 1.3578
What it said to watch
H4 close above 1.34629 swing high would break the lower-high sequence
Loss of 1.33673 swing low opens path toward 1.33150 range low
ATR compression suggests breakout pending — direction undefined until edge breaks
05:00 UTC
Downtrend stabilising, base forming · RSI 46 · price 1.3434
Lower highs intact, basing above 1.3315.
Cable rolled over from 1.3657 in mid-window into a 1.3315 swing low, then carved a rounded base lifting back into the 1.3450 area where the EMA20 caps. Structure is still a sequence of lower highs over the last two weeks, but the recent shelf above 1.3367 and softer ATR(14) suggest compression rather than continued one-way selling. BoE speaker risk (Bailey, Mann, Greene) over the weekend leaves headline sensitivity around this base.
Support: 1.3367, 1.3315, 1.3220
Resistance: 1.3463, 1.3508, 1.3597
What it said to watch
H4 close above 1.3463 (ema20) and 1.3508 swing high would break the lower-high sequence
Loss of 1.3367 swing low reopens the 1.3315 range floor and 1.3220 prior low
BoE Bailey/Mann/Greene speeches could materially shift this read
01:00 UTC
Downtrend, base building · RSI 45 · price 1.34437
Lower highs since early-month peak, attempting to carve a low near 1.3320.
GBPUSD has been carving lower highs since the 1.3653 prior high, with a sharp impulse leg lower into the 1.3316 range low two weeks ago. Price has since rebuilt toward 1.3463 but stalled below the EMA50 near 1.3508, and the latest sessions are consolidating around 1.3440 after a soft US PCE print failed to sustain Sterling demand. ATR(14) at 41 pips reflects a modest compression after the prior expansion lower.
Support: 1.3375, 1.3316, 1.3315
Resistance: 1.3463, 1.3508, 1.3653
What it said to watch
H4 close above 1.3508 (ema50) would neutralise the lower-highs read
