FxWirePro: GBP/USD runs out of steam but maintains bullish outlook

  • The GBP/USD pair strengthened on Wednesday as speculation that U.S. President Donald Trump could face the threat of impeachment triggered dollar sell-off across the board.
     
  • News reports emerged on Tuesday that Trump had asked then-Federal Bureau of Investigation Director James Comey to end the agency's investigation into ties between former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn and Russia.
     
  • The reports fueled questions over whether Trump could be charged with obstruction of justice, potentially opening the doors for an early exit from office.
     
  • The ongoing upside is set to continue for this pair as the support level at 1.2846 is likely to act as strong barrier to the bears.
     
  • To the upside, the strong resistance can be seen at 1.2991, a break above this level would expose the pair towards next resistance level at 1.3030.
     
  • To the downside immediate support can be seen 1.2903, a break below at this level will open the door towards next level at 1.2846.
