GBP/USD Reversal Signals: Analyzing Potential Bearish Momentum

Amidst early week volatility, GBP/USD initially tested 1.2650 before reversing course and closing positively on Monday. However, recent movement has brought the pair into a supply area, hinting at a possible reversal and continuation of its bearish trajectory.

In the upcoming economic calendar, focus shifts to the release of Durable Goods Orders for February in the US. Forecasts predict a 1.3% rise following January's 6.2% contraction. Should the data disappoint, it may weaken the USD in the immediate aftermath. Conversely, a stronger-than-expected increase could bolster the currency. Nonetheless, the impact of this data is likely to be short-lived.

Traders are closely monitoring these developments, with anticipation building for a potential bearish setup post the Durable Goods news.
