British Pound Technical Outlook: GBP/USD Multi-Timeframe Analysis

Sterling is testing major support near 1.3194 as Michael Boutros, StoneX Media Senior Market Analyst, maps the British pound's key levels across weekly, daily and four-hour charts. An upward revision to UK GDP has supported a rebound, but sterling still needs to clear resistance near 1.3302-1.3314 to strengthen the case for a near-term low. A close below 1.3194 could put the yearly range at risk as U.S. employment and inflation data shift rate expectations. Like and subscribe for more financial market insights.
