The uncertainty from the possibility of Scottish independence referendum continue give downward pressure on Pound, the pair has already broke below 1.2380 and I'm looking at potential target at 1.2200 level.

I agree, the pair will likely soon reach 1.2200. It already broke below 1.2300 and is very bearish for now.

Gbp/Usd is losing 0.11% at 1.2280 and a break below 1.2262 (low Mar.2) would aim for 1.2250 (low Jan.19) and finally 1.2036 (low Jan.11). On the flip side, the initial up barrier aligns at 1.2301 (high Mar.2) followed by 1.2395 (55-day sma) and then 1.2410 (100-day sma).

On Friday, the dollar fell against other major currencies. Traders continued to take profits after a recent rise in price of the dollar to a maximum of seven weeks. However, the depreciation of the dollar is limited because of the increasing likelihood of higher interest rates in the US this month.
The pair GBP/USD fell by 0.29% to a minimum of six weeks of 1.2230 after a research of group Markit said that last month the index of business activity in the manufacturing sector (PMI) fell to the UK five-month low of 53.3 against the values 54.5 in January. Analysts had expected in February to reduce this figure to 54.1. Later the pair rose to 1.2297.

Hello:
GBP/USD - The pressure coming out from the USD did not allow the price to fell down and to test the bottom from the March 03. This may bring some fresh air for the sterling and in case of break over 1.2300 may have clearer odd for new GBP increasing with targets around 1.2370

A convincing break below 1.2185 level would turn the pair vulnerable to extend its bearish slide immediately towards mid-1.2100s, en-route 1.2115-10 horizontal support. On the flip side, any recovery might now confront immediate resistance near 1.2235 level, above which the momentum could get extended back towards the 1.2300 handle.

GBP/USD is testing the support at 1.2185 and the pair is quite bearish, but a short retracement is possible because there is an inverted hammer candlestick as well as a doji candlestick on the one-hour time-frame above the aforementioned support.

Bearish sentiment retain its dominance at present, as confirmed break of 1.2150 will enable the continuing decline.

The 1.2200 target that was first indicated last Thursday was finally reached yesterday with overnight low of 1.2170. While most indicators still point to a lower GBP, downward momentum is not as impulsive as preferred and it is likely that we would see slow downward grind from here. The next level to aim for is at 1.2150 followed by 1.2100. Stop-loss is adjusted lower to 1.2310 from 1.2340 even though on a shorter-term note, 1.2270 is already a strong resistance.

The pair bounced off from 1.2140 after forming a double bottom at that level and it will likely continue moving to the upside for now, especially if it breaks out above 1.2200.
