GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Manages to hold above neckline support after UK PMI

   •  The pair now seems to be forming a bearish Head & Shoulders chart pattern on the 4-hourly chart, with the neckline support near 1.3090 area. 

   •  The release of UK manufacturing PMI print does little to provide any meaningful impetus and neutral technical indicators have also failed to reinforce the bearish set-up. 

   •  Hence, it would be prudent to wait for a convincing break below the mentioned support before positioning for any further near-term depreciating move.
