Since mid-November, the GBP/USD pair failed to establish a successful bullish breakout above the price level of 1.2880 (the upper limit of the depicted consolidation range).

On the other hand, two unsuccessful bearish breakout attempts were demonstrated below 1.2720 during last week's consolidations.

During Friday's consolidations, the GBP/USD pair failed to maintain bullish closure above 1.2780 (79.6% Fibonacci). That's why a significant decline below 1.2700-1.2660 (Historical bottoms) was demonstrated yesterday.

The current scenario could pursue as a bearish flag continuation pattern provided that bearish persistence below 1.2660 (corresponding to a prominent daily low) is maintained on a daily basis.

Any bullish pullback towards the price zone of 1.2660-1.2700 should be watched for a valid SELL entry. S/L should be set as daily closure above 1.2750.

A projected target for the bearish flag continuation pattern is located around 1.2300. Initial bearish destination is located around 1.2580.
