Lower highs since late Aug, fresh lower low at 1.3336.
The advance off the June low at 1.3140 topped at 1.3675 (sept high) in late August and has unwound in stair-step fashion; last week's sessions closed below the three-week 1.3480-1.3560 shelf and printed a lower low at 1.3336 (swing low), the weakest since late July, leaving price beneath both EMA20 near 1.3476 and a now-flattening EMA50. The hawkish Fed dot plot against the BoE's 6-3 hold framed the break — Friday's UK retail sales beat could not hold a bid. RSI(14) near 34 is at the low end of its four-month cycle without being washed out, and the current bounce has stalled just under the 1.3400 psych level, with the 61.8% retracement of the June-September swing sitting at 1.3345.
Support: 1.3336, 1.3284, 1.3140
Resistance: 1.3400, 1.3476, 1.3675
What it said to watch
A daily close below 1.3336 swing low exposes the 1.3284 prior low and confirms the June trend structure has gone
A daily close back above 1.3476 ema20 would negate the range break and restore the prior 1.3480-1.3560 balance
UK flash PMIs Wed and BoE speakers Thu are the week's structural catalysts for sterling; US S&P Global PMIs Wed carry the dollar side
Failure to reclaim 1.3400 psych keeps the sequence of lower highs from 1.3675 intact

Uptrend broken, rolling over lower · RSI 34 · price 1.33881
Lower highs since mid-Nov, fresh lower low at 1.3336.
The June-to-November advance topped at the 1.3675 quarter high and has since traced a chain of lower highs, with the multi-week 1.3475-1.3650 range giving way last week to a fresh 7-wk low at 1.3336. Price now sits below both the EMA20 and a flattening ema50 near 1.3480, the first sustained close below the swing-trend filter since the summer base, after the hawkish Fed hike met a 6-3 BoE hold with a dovish-flavoured QT overhaul. Daily RSI at 34 is at its lowest of the quarter without yet reaching oversold, and the weekly cadence has turned one-directional — five of the last six sessions closed lower.
Support: 1.3336, 1.3300, 1.3273
Resistance: 1.3435, 1.3480, 1.3675
What it said to watch
Daily close below the 1.3336 7-wk low would confirm continuation toward the 1.3300 round number and the 1.3273 swing low
Reclaiming the 1.3435 pivot, and then ema50 at 1.3480, would neutralise the lower-high sequence
UK flash PMIs Wed 23 Sep and US flash PMIs the same day are the week's structural risk to this read
Failure to break 1.3336 on the next attempt would argue for range-building between 1.3336 and 1.3435 instead of trend extension
