Looking at the H1 time chart, price has  gradually risen and now consolidates between support level 1.5613 and  resistance level 1.5643. Today, bias for the pair is a buy position.  Price is now testing the support level. If price falls below support  level, this could be a bearish correction, testing the bottom line of  the minor bullish channel. If price breaks below bottom line of the  bullish channel, a continuation of the bearish channel from last Tuesday  may continue. If price breaks above the resistance level, a  continuation of the bullish channel is possible. RSI (14) for the H1  time chart shows price is within the neutral zone, suggesting that the  pair may sustain its current bullish trend.<\/p>\n<p>US Expected to Bounce After US Congress Approves Tax Deal<\/p>\n<p>The  US dollar is expected to rally against other currencies after the US  congress approved the extension of the expiring tax cuts. Though  economists sees this a gamble, the US officials deem it necessary to  create jobs despite widening the US debt. The House of Representatives,  on a 277-148 vote, passed the $858 billion package of renewed tax cuts  and more unemployment benefits in an economy saddled with a nearly 10  percent jobless rate. The bill marked the second time in nearly two  years that Congress rammed through a massive economic stimulus. The  first one, President Obama&#8217;s $814 billion spending bill, was opposed by  Republicans who complained about its impact on annual deficits, now  hovering at about $1.3 trillion annually. With the economy performing  poorly and a year-end tax increase looming, there were none of the  customary congressional hearings that normally precede debate on major  legislation, and few if any complaints that lawmakers had not had enough  time to review the legislation.<\/p>\n<p>Though there are no market moving  data for the upcoming session, reports from the euro zone may offer  pieces of information which could trigger another round of risk aversion  that may push the dollar up against other currencies.<\/p>\n<h3>About the Author<\/h3>\n<p>Forex Signs, Inc., Founded in 2006 in Wall Street, New  York City, FSI relentlessly strives to be the premier Forex brokerage  company in the industry by providing exclusive and unmatched trading and  investment related services while constantly developing innovative  solutions that cater to the vast requirements of both individual and  institutional market participants.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GBPUSD has gradually formed a minor bullish channel after price fell to a low 1.5529 last Tuesday.
