British Pound Price Chart – GBP/USD Weekly

Chart Prepared by Michael Boutros, Sr. Technical Strategist; GBP/USD on TradingView

Sterling rebounded off a confluent support last week at 1.2493-1.2542- a region defined by the 2024 low-week close (LWC) and the 78.6% retracement of the yearly range. The rally failed into a major pivot zone near the yearly open / 52-week moving average at 1.2731/85 and the focus is on a breakout of this key range into the start of December trade. IF last month’s breakdown was legit, rallies should be capped by the 38.2% retracement at 1.2850 with a break lower exposing the next major level support zone at 1.2367/97- look for a larger reaction there IF reached.
