GBP/USD is meeting resistance near 1.2100 while traders assess the risks associated with the banking system crisis and weigh the prospects of a hawkish Federal Reserve and the Bank of England that both meet next week to decide on their interest rate paths. 

From a technical perspective, a multi-timeframe analysis arrives at a bearish bias while GBP/USD remains pressured on the front side of the dominant bear trend.
