Overview:

The GBP/USD pair is moving in a bullish trend from the support levels of 1.2380 and 1.2287.
Currently, the price is in a bullish channel around the spot of 1.2380 and 1.2473. This is confirmed by the RSI indicator signaling that we are still in a bullish trending market.
As the price is still above the moving average (100), immediate support is seen at 1.2380 and 1.2473, while the weekly strong support is found at 1.2287.
Consequently, the first support is set at the level of 1.2380. The market is likely to show signs of a bullish trend around the spot of 1.2380 - 1.2450.
In other words, buy orders are recommended above the 1.2450 level with the first target at the level of 1.2605. Furthermore, if the trend is able to break through the first resistance level of 1.2605, we will see the pair climbing towards the double top (1.2774) to test it in the coming days.
The market is indicating a bullish opportunity above the support levels of 1.2380 - 1.2450, for that the bullish outlook remains the same as long as the 100 EMA is headed to the upside. It would also be wise to consider where to place a stop loss; this should be set below the second support of 1.2287.
