Bearish Reversal in GBP/USD After NFP Data: Key Levels to Watch

Par Mihai_Iacob

In my August 8 analysis, I highlighted the Morning Star pattern, which retested the previous resistance of the broken triangle, signaling a potential reversal to the upside with a target above 1.31 for the next leg up.

As anticipated, the price did reverse, and not only was the target reached, but it was also surpassed.
However, after breaking above the horizontal resistance level, which marked a yearly high for GBP/USD, the pair reversed.
Despite bulls' efforts to regain control, the NFP data provided clarity with a strong bearish engulfing pattern on the daily chart.

At the time of writing, the price is sitting right on the former resistance level, which now serves as support.
A break below this level could lead to further downside movement toward the psychological 1.30 level, and potentially even the 1.2850 technical support zone.

I believe this scenario will play out for "cable," and I'm looking to sell into rallies.
However, this outlook would be invalidated if a new high is achieved.
