GBP/USD remains in an uptrend, consolidating near key resistance at 1.3430, with potential for further gains if this level is breached, Société Générale's FX analysts note.
"GBP/USD up move has stalled after reaching last year high of 1.3430. It has evolved within a flag; this pattern denotes a brief pause within uptrend. The pair has maintained above the 50-DMA (1.3130), which highlights prevalence of upward momentum."
"The MA and recent pivot low near 1.3130 is a short-term support. The pair is inching higher towards 1.3430. Cross above this can lead to an extension in uptrend towards projections of 1.3510 and 1.3620."
