GBPUSD - ANALYSIS👀 Observation: Hello, everyone! I hope you're all doing well. Let me share my personal view on GBP/USD with you. Based on the current market structure, I anticipate further bearish movement in GBP/USD. I expect it to reach the zone between 1.22014 and 1.21685 . However, if GBP/USD breaks above 1.24721 on the 1H timeframe, I expect it to push higher towards the zone between 1.25770 and 1.25669. 📉 Expectation: Bearish continuation towards 1.22014–1.21685, unless the 1.24721 level is broken.

UPDATE ON GBP/USD ANALYSISGBP/USD 1H - I think its time to rinse the cable as much as we can again, as you can see price has recently traded into a FVG and has gone on to break structure to the downside. This giving us the confluence to suggest that price is now trading us in a bearish way and we can look to short this market yet again. We just need to wait for price to give us the entry. This will come by price pulling back up to where we broke the structure, price will do this as it needs to set a new lower high within this bearish structure, once it does we can look to capitalise. I feel price will pullback up to the neckline, clearing any liquidity before the down move, once price trades up I will be keeping a close eye for any fractal breaks in structure to the downside so we can jump on.

GBPUSD - Will the dollar return to the bullish trajectory?!US President Donald Trump has once again shown his mastery of political bluffs. He pushed negotiations with Mexico and Canada to the brink of crisis, there were numerous reports of increased tariffs and tougher measures, but in the end, he canceled everything. Instead, only a few symbolic measures were announced at the border, many of which had been discussed before. Now it seems that this scenario will be repeated again in the next 30 days. That this was a bluff was predictable from the beginning, but it was a challenging experience for analysts and markets. If you didn’t have a moment of doubt during this process, you probably weren’t paying close enough attention. But that’s the Trump strategy: in the market you have to have a strong belief that you are on the right track. When everyone is panicking, you have to stay calm and watch the process from the outside. The trade war has caused significant volatility in financial markets, and it’s not easy to make a profit in this environment. One of the main challenges was the timing. Last week, Trump announced that Mexico and Canada could do nothing to prevent the tariffs. But just days later, the two countries made almost no concessions and no tariffs were imposed. The signs of a shift in direction were already clear. The most important sign was the comments of Kevin Hassett, the White House economic adviser, who indicated that the talks were changing direction. He shifted the focus of the discussion to the problem of drugs and fentanyl, a shift that indicated that the Trump administration was looking to declare a victory in the negotiations. When even CNBC analysts noticed the change, it was clear that the direction of the talks had changed. “It doesn’t seem like you believe that these tariffs are going to happen, or that they will last very long,” one of the network’s hosts told Hassett in an interview. How did the financial markets react? The currency market was one of the best indicators to understand developments. While the stock markets were volatile, the trends in Forex were more transparent and occurred without random disturbances. The focus of attention on financial markets today is the Bank of England’s monetary policy decision. The Bank of England is expected to cut interest rates by 25 basis points, starting the new year. The decision will not come as a surprise, as OIS market data shows that traders have priced in a cut with a probability of around 92%. The cut will take the Bank of England’s policy rate to 4.50%, while policymakers continue to gradually reduce interest rates. However, the most important part of the decision will be the central bank’s statement and tone. The results of the December vote showed that there is a division among BoE policymakers. Dhingra, Ramsden and Taylor had voted for a 25 basis point cut earlier in the same meeting. The Bank of England continues to insist that “a gradual approach to removing monetary policy constraints remains appropriate.” This will remain the watchword for monetary policy today, even if interest rate cuts are implemented. But economic uncertainties remain. The December inflation report showed that price pressures have eased, but the trend is not sustainable. Analysts have made a few key points: • The decline in inflation has been driven largely by falling service prices. • But a closer look suggests that the decline may be temporary. Rob Wood of Pantheon Economics explained that the ONS’s calculation method has led to a drop in airline prices on December 10. The drop came before the Christmas break, when prices would normally have been expected to rise. Overall, the disinflationary trend remains unsustainable. With core inflation still above 3%, the Bank of England remains committed to keeping price pressures in check. Future Forecast: • The Bank of England will cut interest rates today as expected, but will emphasize that future actions will depend on economic data. • Traders do not expect interest rate cuts in February and March, but have forecast the next cut for May 2025. • In total, interest rate cuts for 2025 are estimated at around 83 basis points. Since the Bank of England is unlikely to make any clear commitments on the future course of its policies, the impact of this decision on the value of the pound and government bonds (Gilts) is expected to be limited. The GBPUSD currency pair is located between the EMA200 and EMA50 on the 4-hour timeframe and is moving in its ascending channel. In case of a downward correction, the pair can be bought within the specified demand zone.

GBPUSD A Clear Sell To Buy Set UPFirst I want to thank you all for the love you have showed. Much appreciated. Second, I sound groggy in this video..... just exhausted but hey, I have to do this for you guys. Anyway, this is a follow up on the last video that I did (attached here) where I mentioned that since we have already gotten a bullish break of internal structure (signaling an internal trend change) we should expect a pullback. At the time i was recording this, price is approaching a demand zone where we should expect to see a bullish reaction to take us back to where we are looking to get involved with the sells. If you are comfortable buying from the zone, you should (I will just wait for the reaction off that demand zone into my supply zone to sell). Caution to the people looking to sell. If price makes a deeper pullback, (blasting through the demand zone), cancel your sell orders and start looking for buy opportunities. If the decisional demand zone get's blasted, let's wait for the extreme to hold.

GBPUSD: TP2 Hit +63 Pips (AccuTrade)The Bank Of England's trade-weighted sterling index has rallied 1.7% since the middle of January. The recovery from the gilt-triggered January sell-off has undoubtedly been helped by the rally in US Treasuries. Additionally, the recent focus on tariffs has been a EUR/GBP negative, with the UK less exposed and the UK perhaps even being granted a tariff exemption from the Trump administration – if this week's comments are to be believed. However, the external environment may sour if US Treasury yields rise again, which is the house view. And the brief reprieve in the tariff noise should allow investors to refocus on the UK's fiscal and monetary mix. Fiscal will be a story for March, but today the monetary angle reappears with the Bank of England meeting. Our UK economist, James Smith, discusses all the scenarios here. We expect an 8-1 vote to cut rates and a downward revision to growth forecasts to be a mild sterling negative. Much more negative would be a 9-0 vote, should arch-hawk Catherine Mann vote for a rate cut. We continue to favour GBP/USD topping out this quarter in the 1.25/26 area and see a strong case for it to be trading close to 1.19/20 later this year.

4-hr GBP/USD: Trend Reversal on the RadarBetween October and January, GBP/USD experienced a significant decline, dropping by approximately 1300 pips. However, we now observe signs of a potential trend reversal. Over the past few weeks, the pair has rebounded by more than 400 pips, shifting momentum toward a bullish outlook. This upward movement is further validated by the formation of a Golden Cross, a widely recognized technical indicator that signals buying opportunities. Despite this positive shift, the market faced a temporary disruption over the weekend when newly announced tariffs caused a sharp opening gap of 200 pips on Monday. Nevertheless, this gap was quickly covered, reinforcing the notion that buyers are gaining control. Such price action suggests strong demand and growing confidence in the pair’s upside potential. However, a notable resistance level has emerged at 1.2530, where a Double Top formation has appeared. This pattern is often associated with short-term profit-taking, leading to a temporary pullback in prices. Given this setup, we anticipate further downside movement before the next leg higher. To optimize risk-to-reward, we prefer entering a long position after a deeper retracement. Our ideal entry point would be near the 38% Fibonacci level, around 1.2390, as this zone could act as a strong support level before the bullish trend resumes.
