GBP/USD Price Analysis: Rising wedge, bearish RSI divergence lure sellers ahead of UK inflation

  • GBP/USD grinds near five-week high inside bearish chart formation.
  • Divergence between higher-high on prices and lower high on RSI (14) tease sellers.
  • Upside break of 1.2345 could defy the bearish signals and challenge previous monthly top.
  • UK Inflation may disappoint pair buyers amid mixed forecasts.

GBP/USD picks up bids to defend the previous day’s run-up around the 1.2300 round figure, despite posting only 0.08% intraday gains, as the Cable pair traders await the UK’s key inflation data on early Wednesday. Even so, the quote stays inside an eight-day-old rising wedge bearish chart formation.

Not only the rising wedge but bearish RSI (14) divergence also keeps the GBP/USD sellers hopeful. That said, the oscillator’s inability to back the higher-high on prices portrays the bearish RSI divergence.

However, the quote’s current upside could lure GBP/USD buyers if the scheduled UK data offers a positive surprise and allow the pair to cross the stated wedge’s upper line, close to 1.2325 by the press time.

Following that, the mid-December 2022 low around 1.2345 may probe GBP/USD bulls before directing them toward the previous monthly peak surrounding 1.2445.

Alternatively, pullback moves need validation from the 200-SMA level of 1.2153 while the aforementioned wedge’s lower line, near 1.2200 at the latest, restricts the quote’s immediate downside.

It’s worth noting, however, that the GBP/USD weakness past 1.2153 won’t hesitate to refresh the monthly low, currently around 1.1840.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
