Today's Scenario: - In the Asian session, the GBP/USD pair is exhibiting a lackluster performance by remaining in an extremely narrow range around 1.2020. The Cable has been oscillating within a range of 1.2000-1.2050 since Monday, as investors seem to be more interested in building positions following Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell's testimony, rather than making significant moves in the market.

Buy Scenario: - During early Tuesday's trading, the GBP/USD currency pair is showing mild gains around 1.2030 as it recovers from the losses incurred at the start of the week. The pair has once again bounced off the ascending support line from last Thursday, and the bullish MACD signals are enticing buyers to enter the market.
However, the immediate upside is limited by the 100-SMA level located around 1.2040. After that, the key level for buyers to break through is the downward-sloping resistance line from early February, which is currently near 1.2050. If buyers manage to surpass this resistance line, they may aim for the 200-SMA hurdle located around 1.2150.
It is worth noting that the mid-February highs near 1.2270 may attract GBP/USD bulls beyond 1.2150. Till we do not advise to buy in GBP/USD.

Sell Scenario: - On the other hand, if the GBP/USD pair clearly breaks the immediate support line near 1.2010 (at the time of writing), it would require confirmation from the psychological level of 1.2000 to convince the bears to take control.
However, if the downward momentum persists, the crucial level for the GBP/USD bears to conquer is the upward-sloping support line from early January, which is currently close to 1.1940. If the pair manages to break below this level, it increases the likelihood of witnessing a further decline towards the yearly low of 1.1841. Till then we do not advise selling GBP/USD.
