Breakdown of the DEMAND level around 1.6975 allowed a quick decline of the GBP/USD pair towards the price zone of 1.6800-1.6820.

At retesting the price zone of 1.6800-1.6820, considerable bullish recovery took place. This bullish movement was stopped below 1.6880 when the bears applied pressure at the price level of 1.6880.

On Wednesday, the GBP/USD pair declined again towards 1.6770. This came after the release of the British manufacturing data, which came below expectations.

In case the bears keep applying bearish pressure, we expect the pair to break-down the price level of 1.6760 (the previously broken top established in February 2014 ).

On the other hand, failure of the bears to fixate below 1.6760 will probably allow the bulls to initiate a bullish corrective movement towards 1.6820 and 1.6900 as well.

The price zone between 1.7140 - 1.7170 provided evident bearish price action.

A pattern of multiple tops was confirmed after breakdown of the depicted bullish channel. Moreover, successive bearish targets were already reached.

The price zone of 1.6830 - 1.6800 remains a significant zone as it corresponds to a previous consolidation zone established in June as well as the upper limit of the ongoing bearish channel.

However, 4H breakdown of this zone exposes the price levels around 1.6760 and 1.6730 to be hit shortly after.
