The GBP/USD pair is currently trading at $1.28161, marking a modest increase of 0.05%. The 4-hour chart reveals several critical technical levels and indicators that traders should monitor closely. The pivot point is set at $1.2801, serving as a key threshold for potential bullish or bearish movements.

Immediate resistance levels are identified at $1.2837, $1.2865, and $1.2892. Breaking above these levels could signal further upward momentum for the pair. Conversely, support levels are found at $1.2767, $1.2735, and $1.2710. A drop below these support points could trigger a significant selling trend.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 69, suggesting that the GBP/USD pair is approaching overbought territory. Typically, an RSI level near 70 indicates that the asset may be overvalued, which could precede a price correction. Therefore, traders should be vigilant for any signs of a potential reversal.

The 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) stands at $1.2743, reinforcing the bullish trend as long as the price remains above this average. The EMA acts as dynamic support, and maintaining a price above this level supports the ongoing bullish sentiment.

Given the current market setup, an effective strategy would be to enter a buy position above $1.28038. Setting a take-profit target at $1.28407 aligns with immediate resistance levels, providing a favorable risk-reward ratio while capturing potential gains. A stop-loss at $1.27821, just below the pivot point, helps limit downside risk from unexpected market movements.
