Hence, a quick bearish movement was anticipated towards 1.2780 (Key-Level) where bullish recovery was recently demonstrated on two consecutive visits.

Since then, the GBP/USD pair has been trapped between the mentioned price levels (1.2780-1.3000) until Today when bullish breakout above 1.3000 was achieved.

Short-term technical outlook remains bullish as long as consolidations are maintained above 1.3000 on the H4 chart.
