British Pound: 1.3440–1.3420 support in focus against US Dollar - Societe Generale

Source Fxstreet

Societe Generale highlights GBP/USD trading just above its 200-day moving average, with the August trough around 1.3440–1.3420 acting as a key support zone. They see scope for a brief bounce, but stress that a move above 1.3565 is needed to confirm a broader recovery, while failure to hold 1.3420 could open 1.3360 and 1.3270 on the downside.

Key support zone under scrutiny

"GBP/USD has retraced toward the 200-DMA and the August trough at 1.3440/1.3420, which could act as a potential support zone."

"A brief bounce is likely; however, a move above the recent pivot high at 1.3565 will be crucial to confirm a broader upward move."

"If the pair fails to hold above 1.3420, the decline may deepen."

"The next potential objectives could be located at projections of 1.3360 and 1.3270."
