GBP/USD Pushes Higher

Following a rather quite morning on Tuesday, the Sterling took advantage of the weaker US Dollar later in the day and eventually broke through the strong resistance of the monthly and weekly pivot points and the 200-hour SMA circa 1.3870.

Further advance did not follow, as the pair entered a minor period of consolidation. Despite technical indicators flashing bearish signals, it is likely that the breached resistance succeeds at supporting the price near 1.3860.

This level also coincides with the 55-hour SMA and the prevailing one-week trendline. By and large, it is expected that the Sterling pushes higher within the following trading sessions until a downward-sloping trendline is reached near 1.3950.
