GBP / USD Technical Analysis Nov 25

Will the buyers lead the GBPUSD at 1.2425?

The GBPUSD after rising from 1.2350 to 1.2502 has now stabilized slightly above today’s major pivot point area, the 1.2425 zone.

Stochastic oscillator’s formation shows a pattern of a steady rise at the 40 level where the pair is expected to retrace to the upside.

Probable Scenario

In the condition where the pair stabilizes above the 1.2425 level and the bullish pressures get more tensed, the price could appreciate to the 1.2502 zone.

Should the buyers gain control, then such a continuation confirms their profitable upside attempts since the 18th of November 2016.
