GBP/USD Price Forecast: Falls below 1.3350 due to prevailing bearish bias
- GBP/USD may find the initial support at the descending channel’s lower boundary around 1.3250.
- The 14-day Relative Strength Index remains below the 50 level, reinforcing the bearish bias.
- The initial barrier appears at the nine-day EMA of 1.3441.
The GBP/USD pair extends its losing streak for the fourth successive session, trading around 1.3340 during the Asian hours on Tuesday. The bearish bias prevails as the daily chart’s technical analysis suggests that the pair remains within the descending channel pattern.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains below the 50 level, strengthening the bearish bias. However, the GBP/USD pair is positioned below the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), suggesting the short-term price momentum is weaker.
On the downside, the GBP/USD pair could target the primary support at the lower boundary of the descending channel around 1.3250. A break below the channel could strengthen the bearish bias and put downward pressure on the pair to test the three-month low of 1.3139.
The GBP/USD pair may find an immediate barrier at the nine-day EMA of 1.3440, followed by the 50-day EMA at 1.3464. A break above these levels would improve the short- and medium-term price momentum and support the pair to test the descending channel’s upper boundary around 1.3570. Further advances may lead the pair to approach 1.3788, the highest since October 2021, which was recorded on July 1.
