The British pound on 4-hours chart, is trading above the 21 SMA and above the 200 EMA. Yesterday, it reached 1.3520. From that level it is making a technical correction and is likely to find a bounce around the SMA of 21 at 1.3470.

Since December 17, the pound sterling has been hovering in an uptrend channel. This channel still remains intact. If a bounce at the bottom of the channel is confirmed, it could give it a further bullish momentum to reach 7/8 Murray around 1.3550.

On the contrary, if in the next few hours, the pound makes a close on the 4-hour chart below 1.3460, the correction is likely to accelerate and could fall to the 200 EMA around 1.3380 and to 5/8 Murray around of 1.3305.

The eagle indicator reached a key level of extreme overbought and a correction is imminent in the next few days. Therefore, as long as it remains below the psychological level of 1.3500, a correction could occur.
