Summary

GBP/USD closed the previous session at 1.33709, below the daily pivot of 1.33797. It trades below its 200-session average (1.34343), and the RSI stands at 55. The downside is favoured while price stays below 1.34264; a rally to R1 at 1.33987 is likely to meet selling that takes price back towards the pivot at 1.33797, then 1.33520. A break above 1.34264 would cancel this view. R1 lines up with a resistance zone between 1.33976 and 1.34092 where price turned 5 times, which makes it a key area.

How this analysis is made

  • It is computed from the same price feed Vexoda executes trades on — not data scraped from another site.
  • Classic pivots (P, R1–R3, S1–S3) come from the previous session for the daily view and the previous week for the weekly view.
  • Support and resistance zones are clustered swing highs and lows; a zone price has reacted to more often carries more weight.
  • The bias scores five factors: the close against the 200-session average, the 50/200 average order, the close against the pivot, the RSI and the 4-hour trend.
  • Nothing is edited by hand, and the record of previous sessions stays on this page.
