GBP/USD tests key resistance at 1.3430–1.3500 – Société Générale
The Pound Sterling (GBP) is approaching a critical technical zone against the US dollar, challenging last year's high and the top of a long-term ascending channel. While momentum indicators remain strong, the risk of a short-term pullback is rising if resistance near 1.3500 proves difficult to breach, Société Générale's FX analysts note.
Support seen near 1.3230 if pullback occurs
"GBP/USD is challenging the peak of last year and the upper limit of an ascending channel drawn since 2023 at 1.3430/1.3500. Daily MACD is at a multiyear high denoting a stretched up-move. This is not a reversal signal, but a brief pullback can’t be ruled out in case the pair fails to establish beyond 1.3430/1.3500."
"Recent pivot low of 1.3230 is likely to be an important support near term. Beyond 1.3500, next objectives could be located at projections of 1.3620 and 1.3740/1.3810."
