Successive bottoms around 1.6465 and 1.6555 (corresponding to the depicted uptrend line) prevented further bearish decline and provided enough buying pressure to keep pushing higher.

However, the bullish momentum wasn't strong enough to allow the bullish breakout above 1.7000 to pursue towards further targets. Instead, this previous breakout lost its bullish momentum showing successive lower highs that temporarily managed to breakdown the depicted uptrend line.

Again last week, the GBP/USD pair showed bullish recovery around 1.6690 which was followed by strong bullish pressure being applied.

This pushed the pair again towards retesting of 1.6980-1.7000 (prominent top established on May 6).

If the bears keep preventing any bullish breakout above 1.7000, the pair will have obvious targets around 1.6900 initially then 1.6850 to be followed (depicted on the 4H chart).

Note Monday's candlestick came as "an inverted hammer" closing within the previous candlestick's trading range despite the bullish spike above 1.7010.

This enhances the bearish side of the market at such prominent SUPPLY levels.

This time the bears have failed to pause the ongoing bullish pressure at 1.6920 where previous bullish attempts were invalidated recently.

The bulls managed to re-fixate above the previously broken uptrend line. Moreover, they are challenging the recent top around 1.6970 - 1.7000 today.

Management of the bears to maintain the 4H fixation below this price zone suggests a bearish move towards 1.6850 - 1.6810 where 61.8% and 50% Fibonacci Levels are located.

On the other hand, 4H bullish fixation above 1.7000 will enable the bulls to reach 1.7090 and probably 1.7130 before bearish retracement can take place.
