The hourly chart shows price above a flat 20 SMA, while indicators turned south and approach their midlines, holding in positive territory. In the 4 hours chart the bearish tone persists, as the spike higher was contained by a still bearish 20 SMA, while indicators head south in negative territory although with limited momentum.

The GBP/USD bounced from the 1.5070 area, establishing a short term double floor in the level, clear in the hourly chart. Despite disappointing UK data, the pair has managed to bounce higher, and the hourly chart presents a slightly bullish tone ahead of the US opening: indicators head north above their midlines, while price advances above 20 SMA. The 4 hours chart shows a quite limited upward tone, with price now struggling to overcome its 20 SMA and indicators aiming to break above their midlines: further gains towards the neck of the figure around 1.5220 are likely, as long as 1.5120 contains slides, yet only above mentioned 1.5220 the pair will ease the strong bearish tone and be able to correct higher.
Support levels: 1.5120 1.5070 1.5030
Resistance levels: 1.5220 1.5265 1.5300
