GBP/USD is moving higher as traders bet that the situation in the Middle East will calm down. In absence of economic reports, geopolitical developments serve as the key catalyst for GBP/USD. In case U.S. and Iran restart negotiations and do not attack each other, demand for risk assets will increase, providing additional support to the British pound.
The nearest resistance level for GBP/USD is located in the 1.3450 – 1.3465 range. If GBP/USD manages to settle above the 1.3465 level, it will head towards the next resistance level, which is located in the 1.3535 – 1.3550 range.
On the support side, GBP/USD needs to settle below the 1.3400 level to have a chance to gain downside momentum in the near term. A move below 1.3400 will push GBP/USD towards the support level at 1.3335 – 1.3350.
