GBPUSD | Perspective for the new week

Long
FX:GBPUSD   British Pound / U.S. Dollar
It is over 250pips move in our direction since my last publication (see link below for reference purposes) and the appearance of a strong reversal pattern (Double Bottom) at this juncture in the market suggest a trend reversal is unfolding as price continue to find higher-high since hitting a bottom @ $1.36000 a couple of times.
The British pound spiked a bit on the last day of last week trading session to recapture the $1.37500 handle. Even though we are still trying to figure out where to go in the longer term from this juncture; from a technical point of view it appears we are on the verge of breaking out of key level @ $1.37500 to find new highs in the coming week(s).

Tendency: Uptrend (Bullish)
Structure: Supply & Demand | Reversal pattern (Double Top)
Observation: i. It is obvious that the Pound has been on a steady growth since March 2020 (see weekly chart) and since hitting a peak @ $1.4200, the price plunged - a feat that can be regarded as a correction phase.
ii. The inability of sellers to push the price below the $1.3600 level in the last 6 weeks insinuate that there still exist in the market those who believe in the Pound sterling.
iii. Supporting this view is the appearance of a Double Bottom set-up at this juncture which describes a possible change in trend and a momentum reversal from prior leading price action as I anticipate Breakout/Retest of the Neckline @ $1.39500 for further confirmation of a bullish bias.
iv. Going into the new week, above of Key level (Breakout/Retest) shall remain my yardstick to take on a position for a rally continuation with options to add to the position above Neckline... Trade consciously!😊
Trading plan: BUY confirmation with a minimum potential profit of 300 pips.
Risk/Reward: 1:5
Potential Duration: 5 to 12days
