The Bank of England's decision on interest rates led to a slight surge in market volatility, but the technical picture did not change compared to the morning forecast. At the moment, buyers of the pound need a return and consolidation above the resistance of 1.3057, which will return the demand and lead to a repeated test of a maximum of 1.3093 with its update in the area of 1.3129, where I recommend fixing the profits. With the scenario of further GBP/USD decline, it is best to return to long positions on a false breakdown in the area of 1.3018 or on a rebound from the low of 1.2983.
