Hello, dear traders! On the 1H chart, GBP/USD advanced to the 200% retracement level of 1.4216 and reversed. Traders can now expect the pair to fall to the 161.8% Fibo level of 1.4136. However, in case of consolidation above the 200% retracement level, the bullish trend will resume, and the price may rise to the 261.8% retracement level of 1.4344. Meanwhile, in the United States, stimulus talks are ongoing between Democrats and Republicans. US President Joe Biden proposes two plans worth $4 trillion at once. Both packages will be funded by higher taxes for wealthy Americans, as well as increased corporate taxes. These legislations, as well as tax hikes, should be approved by Congress. Republicans are against higher taxes. The party is ready to approve only the infrastructure package that costs $800 billion. At the same time, Republicans do not have the majority in Congress. Therefore, both stimulus plans are likely to be approved. Nevertheless, the parties continue negotiating, and the outcome will become known soon. Meanwhile, unemployment in the United Kingdom decreased along with the claimant count, boosting the pound.
