GBP / USD Technical Analysis Oct 28

Is the 1.2108 a bearish opportunity on the GBPUSD?

The GBPUSD has been mostly oscillating, since the 25th of October 2016, within an upside channel between 1.2108 and 1.2270 respectively.

Both the buyers and the sellers are now placing strong pressures in their attempts of taking control over the pair’s price.

The price is now oscillating above the 1.2108 zone which is today’s major pivot point area.

Probable Scenario

In the condition where the pair stabilizes below the 1.2108 area, the price could be forced to decline to lower zones such as the 1.2007 level.

The Stochastic oscillator also confirms that the price has greater chances to retrace and decline at the 60 level.
