GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Bulls aiming to reclaim 1.3300 handle ahead of US retail sales

   •  The pair built on Friday's sharp rebound from the 1.3100 handle and continued gaining positive traction for the second consecutive session.

   •  The Fact that managed to reverse an early European session dip to 100-hour SMA supports prospects for an extension of the positive momentum.

   •  However, RSI (14) on the hourly chart has now moved into overbought territory and could be the only factor capping gains near a short-term descending trend-channel resistance.
