GBP/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook

The daily chart portrays the pair as neutral-biased, with momentum skewed to the upside, as depicted by the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The RSI is bullish, though close to the 50-midline, an indication that volatile price action could trigger a momentum shift.

With that said the first resistance of the GBP/USD would be the May 6 high at 1.2594. Once cleared, that could pave the way to test 1.2600, ahead of the 50-day moving average (DMA) at 1.2607. Further upside is seen at the 100-DMA at 1.2640, followed by the April 9 high at 1.2709.

On the other hand, if the GBP/USD dips below the 200-DMA at 1.2545, that would exacerbate a test of 1.2500. Once hurdled, the next support emerged at the May 1 low of 1.2466, followed by the 1.2400 figure
