GBP/USD Price Forecast: Rebounds from levels near three-month lows, 1.3200
GBP/USD inches higher after four days of losses, trading around 1.3270 during the Asian hours on Monday. The technical analysis of the daily chart indicates a persistent bearish bias, as the pair remains within the descending channel pattern.
The near-term bias is mildly bearish as the GBP/USD pair holds below both the nine-day and 50-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), which continue to cap recovery attempts and frame a declining short-term trend.
Additionally, the latest 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) reading near 41 stays below the 50 mid-line, confirming persistent downside momentum rather than exhaustion, while the sequence of lower closes over recent sessions reinforces selling pressure on upticks.
The GBP/USD pair may find immediate support near the three-month low of 1.3218, which was recorded on March 13, followed by the descending channel’s lower boundary around 1.3160.
On the upside, the GBP/USD pair may rise toward the primary barrier at the nine-day EMA of 1.3329. Further advances would lead the GBP/USD pair to test the 50-day EMA at 1.3424, followed by the upper descending channel boundary around 1.3460. A break above this confluence resistance zone would cause the emergence of the bullish bias and support the GBP/USD pair to explore the area around 1.3869, the highest since September 2021, reached on January 27.
