FX.co ★ Daily analysis of GBP/USD for August 09, 2016

Cable is looking to trade lower and it remains consolidated below the resistance zone of 1.3085 during Monday's session. The focus is still on the place around the 1.3000 psychological level, where a breakout should happen to extend the declines toward the 1.2894 price level. However, a rally above the resistance level of 1.3085 can open the doors to the 1.3148 level, where the 200 SMA is located.

H1 chart's resistance levels: 1.3085 / 1.3148

H1 chart's support levels: 1.3000 / 1.2894
