GBPUSD - FACES RESISTANCE AS BEARISH SIGNALS EMERGE

1 751
Symbol - GBPUSD

CMP - 1.3525

GBPUSD has been rallying amid a weakening US dollar but is now encountering strong resistance and showing signs of a false breakout suggesting a potential corrective phase ahead.

The pair is currently testing a key resistance zone within a distribution phase, with a double top pattern forming on the higher timeframe - a classic bearish reversal signal. Despite the broader bullish structure, the failure to sustain gains above key resistance 1.3600 and ongoing consolidation below 1.3545 point to weakening momentum.

Additionally, the US dollar has reached support levels and may begin to recover, adding further downward pressure on GBPUSD.

Resistance levels: 1.3548, 1.3570, 1.3600
Support levels: 1.3512, 1.3455

If the pair cannot hold above 1.3565 during this retest, a deeper pullback is likely, potentially offering short opportunities. The correction could extend toward the 1.3450–1.3365 & may test 1.3300 support range before any continuation of the broader uptrend.
