The GBP/USD pair extends its sideways consolidative price move for the second day in a row, remaining in a narrow range below the 1.2700 level during Wednesday's Asian session. Meanwhile, the lack of major purchasing calls for caution before extending the recent rally from the 1.2625-1.2620 zone, or the lowest level since mid-May reached last.

From a technical perspective, the recent pullback from the 1.2860 area, or a three-month peak touched on June 12 stalled near the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). The said support is currently pegged near the 1.2645-1.2640 region, which now coincides with the 100-day SMA and should act as a key pivotal point. A convincing break below will be seen as a fresh trigger for bearish traders and drag the GBP/USD pair further below the 1.2600 round figure, towards testing the next relevant support near the 1.2560-1.2555 zone en route to the 1.2500 psychological mark.

On the other hand, the 1.2700 round figure is anticipated to operate as an immediate barrier ahead of the 1.2720-1.2725 supply zone. Some follow-through buying and sustained strength beyond will indicate that the recent corrective slump has ended. Given that oscillators have been recovering on the daily chart, the GBP/USD pair may accelerate its move towards reclaiming the 1.2800 barrier. Bulls may finally attempt to challenge the multi-month high near 1.2860 and push spot prices further higher to the round figure of 1.2900.
