The depicted chart illustrates the current situation of the GBP/USD currency pair on the 4H timeframe.

The GBP/USD currency pair is currently testing the lower limit of the almost identical bearish channels around 1.6050 which may constitute a suitable price level for bulls to initiate a bullish swing.

Price Zone 1.6040-1.6060 constitutes a strong support zone for the pair which should hold price above. Otherwise, a quick decline towards 1.5960 will probably take place.

Price Level 1.6140 is considered a strong resistance level for the GBP/USD pair for those who look for bearish opportunities.

The Hourly chart gives a similar view for the GBP/USD.

The GBP/USD has been downtrending within the depicted bearish channels for almost two days. However, today we witnessed a bullish breakout above the upper limit of the violet channel with quite strong bullish price action.

The GBP/USD has an Intraday support level at 1.6040 which corresponds to the lower limit of the bearish Yellow channel and an Intraday resistance level at 1.6095-1.6110 corresponding to the upper limits of its movement channels.

Retesting of the backside of the broken violet channel at 1.6045-1.6055 will be an appropriate BUY entry with TP levels at 1.6080. 1.6100 & 1.6130.

SL should be 4H closure below 1.6030.
