Technical analysis of GBP/USD for January 23, 2014

Overview:

• This week, the GBP/USD pair has an upside movement from 1.6415 to 1.6517, and today the market has opened at the price of 1.6566. Furthermore, the uptrend represents the double bottom of the channel emerging at the level of 1.6415. It is equally important that the RSI has still been positive in the daily time frame, so it calls for a new upward movement. Therefore, the price movement will be trapped between 1.6615 and 1.6466 (Fibonacci retracement levels in H4 chart). Moreover, the pair has already formed major support at the level of 1.6503. For that it should be noted that the price was set above this level a long time ago, and the market will indicate a bullish opportunity at the level of 1.6500, with the first target at 1.6565, then if it breaks 1.655, there will be a breakout above this level with the second target at the 1.6611 price. However, the best location for placing a stop loss should be below 1.6412.
