Technical Analysis of GBP/USD for October 4, 2022

Technical Market Outlook:

The GBP/USD pair has bounced over 10% from the lowest level since 1985 located at 1.0352 and is currently testing the key long-term and short-term technical resistance located at 1.1410. Despite the recent impressive bounce, only a sustained breakout above this level would change the outlook to bullish. Please notice, the level of 1.1410 is the first target for the wave 5 as well, so a corrective cycle might occur after this level is hit (the other target for the wave 5 is seen at 1.1560 based on Fibonacci extensions). On the other hand, the next target for bears is located at the parity level of 1.0000, so please keep an eye on this level. The intraday technical support is seen at the level of 1.0929. The momentum remains strong and positive, so the short-term outlook is bullish.
