GBP/USD is struggling to maintain its upward momentum and is trading below the 1.2550 level in the US trading session. Earlier in the day, disappointing April employment report from the US triggered a sell-off in the US Dolla (USD) and helped this currency pair reach its highest level in weeks above 1.2600. The disparity in economic data between the US and the UK has led to significant fluctuations in the currency market, creating both opportunities and challenges for investors.
Looking at the chart, we can see that prices are trading around the Simple Moving Averages (SMA). The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is trading above the 50 level, indicating that buying pressure remains dominant with no significant changes, a sign of normalization. This may suggest that the market is undergoing a period of stability after the recent intense fluctuations.
