The GBP/USD pair has recorded a slight uptick today, increasing by 0.10% to $1.23810. This move reflects subtle shifts in market sentiment as traders navigate a critical technical landscape for the British Pound against the U.S. Dollar.

The pair is currently trading below the key pivot point set at $1.24204, which serves as a gauge for directional bias in the session. Looking upwards, immediate resistance can be found at $1.24823, followed by $1.25261 and $1.25795. These levels could serve as ceilings for price actions where sellers might regain control. On the downside, the initial support is marked at $1.23324. Should bearish pressures intensify, subsequent supports at $1.22949 and $1.22575 will be crucial to halting further declines.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 36, suggesting that the GBP/USD pair is approaching oversold territory, which could potentially lure buyers back into the market. However, the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $1.24747 remains above the current price, indicating an overarching bearish bias in the medium term.

Given the current technical setup, a prudent trading strategy would involve initiating a short position if the pair rises to just below the pivotal $1.24208 mark, targeting a pullback towards $1.23433. To manage risk effectively, setting a stop loss at $1.24758 is advisable, safeguarding against potential upward swings beyond the immediate resistance.
