You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the?price action?that occurs at the given levels. GBP/USD AnalysisI wrote in my previous GBP/USD forecast a week ago that the picture had become more bearish, so I was looking for a short trade from a reversal at $1.2471. This level was not reached that day, but the price did fall over the near term, so my approach was correct.The technical picture is a bit choppy but also, we see low volatility, despite all the tariff-related turmoil in the Forex market. This has affected the Canadian Dollar and emerging currencies such as the Mexican Peso, leaving this currency pair quite untouched.Technically, it seems as if the support level just below at $1.2376 could be quite solid, but there is no short-term momentum, and the price is equally far away from the nearest resistance level at $1.2471.I think the price is likely to remain contained between these two levels over today’s London and New York sessions, so scalping reversals off either level is likely to be the best strategy if you must trade this currency pair. However, there will likely be better opportunities elsewhere in the Forex market, possibly in the EUR/USD currency pair.There is nothing of high importance due today concerning the GBP. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of JOLTS Job Openings data at 3pm London time.More By This Author:Forex Today: Mexico And Canada Temporarily Cave Into Trump Tariff Pressure BTC/USD Forex Signal: Bounce Following Drop To 3-Month LowForex Today: Trump Tariffs Send US Dollar Soaring
