GBPUSD: Watching the 0.813 level for continuation
Been looking at $GBPUSD this morning and the action around the 0.813 handle is interesting. We've seen a dip, currently around 0.81345, testing what looks like prior support. If it holds, especially considering the broader sentiment around the dollar, we might see a bounce back towards the 0.82 handle that was the earlier high.
However, a clear break and sustained close below 0.813 would definitely invalidate that scenario for me. It could suggest a deeper retracement is in play, perhaps towards the 0.81 support, and I'd reassess the short-term direction from there. Just my thoughts, always good to hear other perspectives.
I'm seeing similar price action. Given the recent hawkish shift from the BoE, I wonder how much more room there is for GBP downside, even if the dollar strengthens further. It feels like 0.813 could be a solid floor for now.
