Friday was quite volatile in terms of price action for GBP/USD, but the pair managed to stay inside the narrow channel established between the 200 SMA at H1 chart and the demand zone of 1.2123. The overall scenario remains bearish and it’s possible to see a downside continuation during this week and a confirmation of that should be a breakout below the January 11st session.
