GBP/USD four-hour chart

 
GBP/USD is correcting higher while trading well below its main SMAs, suggesting an overall bearish bias. The 1.1700, 1.1800 and 1.1900 figures are acting as resistance as the current rebound could be classified as a dead-cat-bounce, which implies that the market could remain vulnerable to the downside. Bears would need to regain the 1.1700 level on a daily closing basis.
 
 
Resistance: 1.1600, 1.1730, 1.1800
Support: 1.1485, 1.1400, 1.1300
