  • GBP/USD is hovering near the edge of the Symmetrical Triangle pattern for a breakout.
  • Economic events such as the US Inflation and the UK employment data may keep Cable volatile.
  • The RSI (14) is oscillating in the bullish range of 60.00-80.00, which indicates that the upside momentum is already active.

The GBP/USD pair has refreshed its day’s high above the critical resistance of 1.2150 in the Asian session. The Cable has picked strength amid the improved risk appetite of investors after they have digested the United States inflation-inspired anxiety.

S&P500 futures are displaying a subdued performance after a bullish Monday, depicting a minor caution amid overall positive sentiment. The US Dollar Index (DXY) has further dropped below 102.85, showing a sheer decline in the safe-haven’s appeal. The Pound Sterling will display a power-packed action after the release of the United Kingdom employment data.

GBP/USD is hovering near the edge of the Symmetrical Triangle charts pattern formed on an hourly scale. The upward-sloping trendline of the aforementioned chart pattern is placed from February 7 low at 1.1961 while the downward-sloping trendline is plotted from February 3 high at 1.2264.

Advancing 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.2118, adds to the upside filters.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) is oscillating in the bullish range of 60.00-80.00, which indicates that the upside momentum is already active.

A confident breakout of the Symmetrical Triangle above the February 9 high at 1.2192 will trigger the volatility expansion, which will drive the asset towards the February 3 high at 1.2264. A breach of the latter will expose the asset to the round-level resistance of 1.2300.

On the contrary, a decline in the Cable below February 9 low at 1.2057 will drag the asset towards January 3 low at 1.1900 followed by horizontal support placed from January 6 low around 1.1841.
