What can we expect from GBPUSD for the new week and what happened on Friday?
GBPUSD on Friday rose 0.05% to 1.26430. Price is below 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is falling. For the week ending 2024-06-28, the pair rose 0.03% or 4 pips higher.
Looking ahead on Monday, GBPUSD looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above week low of 1.26135.
For the new week, our technical outlook is mixed. To see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of week high of 1.27025 or at least consolidates above Weekly Pivot level of 1.26530. On the downside, we are looking at week low 1.26135 or 1.26035 (WS1) as immediate support level. GBPUSD need to break on either side to indicate a short-term bias. A break above 1.27025 would suggest bullish bias after recent positive movement.
For the month of June, GBPUSD is down by -0.69% or -87.4 pips lower.
