Trading Signal for GBP/USD on January 2-3, 2024: buy above 1.2612 (200 EMA - rebound)

This image is no longer relevant

Early in the American session the British pound (GBP/USD) is trading around 1.2639, below the 21 SMA and below 8/8 Murray.

On the H4 chart we can see that the British pound started a strong technical correction after reaching + 1/8 Murray around 1.2820 and since then it continues to decline and it is likely that it could reach the 200 EMA located at 1.2590 and even reach 7/8 Murray located at 1.2573.

The British pound is approaching the daily S_3 support, which could cause a technical rebound in the coming hours and could reach 8/8 Murray at 1.2695, and even if it approaches towards 1.2750 could be seen as an opportunity to resume selling.

GBP/USD has strong weekly support around 1.2612. This level the British pound has respected since December 6 and we can see that it has offered good technical rebound. If in the next hours the British pound bounces around 1.2312 it will be seen as a buying opportunity with targets at 1.2695.

On the other hand, the next support for the British pound is around the 200 EMA located at 1.2595, this could be the last chance for the British pound to resume its bullish cycle in this could reach the top of the bearish channel at 1.2680.

The British pound is undergoing a strong technical correction, so we must be very careful if we buy at current price levels, we should continue to sell or we could wait for it to consolidate around a good support as explained, in order to buy on the technical rebound.
