The GBP/USD pair has posted gains for a second consecutive day, although bulls still lack the conviction needed to sustain a stronger advance. The U.S. dollar remains under pressure after failing to hold near the yearly high reached on Thursday, a level last seen in May 2025. This is providing support for GBP/USD.
The MACD histogram remains slightly above the signal line and is approaching the zero level. This points to weak bullish momentum, which is not yet strong enough to reverse the sustained downward trend that has characterized GBP/USD over the past two months.
As for resistance levels, the nearest resistance is located at the 50-period SMA, followed by the 100-period SMA. However, the key level required to weaken the broader bearish outlook and pave the way for a more confident recovery is the 200-period SMA near 1.3382, which bulls will need to overcome.
Intraday pullbacks, in turn, are likely to be driven more by price action than by clearly defined structural support levels.
The 1.3110–1.3115 level currently serves as support until new technical reference levels emerge.
