GBPUSD traded higher again Wednesday, extending the recovery from the Jul 16 low. The recent spell of weakness resulted in a break of trendline support drawn from the Jan 13 low. The breach is a bearish development, however, the latest bounce also highlights a possible false break. Note that M/T signals still highlight an uptrend. The next resistance to watch is 1.3577, a Fibonacci retracement. The bear trigger is 1.3365, Jul 16 low. A break would resume a bear theme.
