British Pound Technical Outlook: GBP/USD Multi-Timeframe Analysis
British pound support at the bottom of its yearly range has held for a fourth straight week as easing Treasury yields give sterling some relief. Michael Boutros, StoneX Media Senior Market Analyst, walks through GBP/USD on the weekly, daily and four-hour charts. Weekly RSI has held above 40 since January of last year, through four weekly tests of support. The monthly opening range on GBP/USD is contracting, with lower highs and higher lows defining both sides of the trade. With U.S. Treasury yields pulling back from multi-decade highs, U.S. CPI and PPI data now have the potential to shift Federal Reserve rate expectations.
