GBP/USD

Yesterday, the British pound failed to settle above the level of 1.2427 and rose by 28 pips while the dollar temporarily showed broad weakness.

The signal line of the Marlin oscillator has entered the upper half of its own descending channel. Another drop below the support at 1.2427 makes it possible for the price to reach the target of 1.2370. The pair can correct higher once the price surpasses yesterday's peak at 1.2480 and moves towards the support area of February and March (1.2515/30).

On the 4-hour chart, the price continues to consolidate above the level of 1.2427. During this time, the signal line of the Marlin oscillator has entered the uptrend territory. Perhaps it is time for it to move downwards.

If the upward movement persists, the bulls will face a serious challenge in fighting the MACD line (1.2497), which coincides with the April 15 high. Consolidation below the support level paves the way for the price to reach the nearest target at 1.2370.
