  • GBP/USD Technical Strategy: Short Pending
  • Bears Hesitate As Doji Candlesticks Emerge
  • Four Hour Chart Shows Signs Of Indecision

GBP/USD’s consolidation has continued leaving a medley of Doji candlesticks in its path. Despite the proximity to key support at 1.5880 a lack of bullish reversal patterns casts doubt on a bounce. This leaves a breakout below the nearby barrier to offer a fresh short opportunity.

A similar Doji display on the four hour chart further suggests hesitation from traders near the bounds of an intraday band. A more convincing close below the 1.5960 floor would be required to pave the way for a descent on the 1.5880 barrier.
