Bullish flag on the Pound

Flags are chart patterns that usually act as continuation patterns. If the trend coming into the formation is bullish, then the asset has a higher probability of continuing higher, but the price may actually break out of the pattern in any direction. On the daily chart of the GBP/USD we can see that the price has formed a bullish flag. It is called a bullish flag, because the trend coming into the formation is bullish, but the flag itself has a small inclination to the downside. The GBP/USD has really found a good support at the 1.3300 level where we can find the 55 day EMA (purple line). In order for the bullish trend to continue, the price must break above the 1.3600 level. To the downside, the 1.3100 level could become a good support along with the 200 day EMA (blue line).
