Comprehensive analysis:

- indicator analysis - up;

- Fibonacci levels - up;

- volumes - up;

- candlestick analysis - down;

- trend analysis - down;

- Bollinger Lines - down;

- monthly chart - up.

The conclusion of a comprehensive analysis is an upward movement.

The total result of calculating the candle of the GBP/USD currency pair according to the weekly chart: the price of the week will most likely have an upward trend with the absence of the first lower shadow of the weekly white candlestick (Monday - up) and the presence of the second upper shadow (Friday - down).

The first upper target at 1.2282 is a pullback level of 14.6% (red dashed line).

The weekly upper target at 1.2412 is a pullback level of 23.6% (red dashed line).

An unlikely scenario: the price from the level of 1.2100 (closing of the last closed weekly candle) working down with the lower target of 1.1883 - the lower border of the Bollinger line indicator (black dashed line).
