Valeria Bednarik, FXstreet.com collaborator, says in her Advisor blog that GBP/USD is inside of ascendant channel: "Gbp/Usd bullish rally continues, and seems likely a test of the roof of the channel you can see in this 4 hours charts, before any retracement/correction here. Above 1.5513 current high, resistances will come at 1.5545 and 1.5590. Supports are at 1.5440 zone, followed by 1.5395, and the more important 1.5350 zone, that should hold the downside to keep trend intact."
