Fundamental Market Analysis for December 20, 2024 GBPUSDThe Bank of England kept its key rate at 4.75%, which was in line with market expectations. However, three members voted for a rate cut, which came as a surprise and emphasized the regulator's softer stance. This reinforced expectations of significant monetary policy easing in 2025 - the BoE is projected to cut the rate up to four times at 0.25%. In comparison, the Fed is planning less aggressive cuts another 1-2 times, which strengthens the US Dollar's position and puts pressure on the Pound. The economic situation in the UK remains unstable. The Bank of England lowered its GDP growth forecasts for 2024, pointing to weak economic dynamics. Despite the high growth of wages (5.2%), inflation remains above the target level, which requires the preservation of tight monetary policy. At the same time, the regulator noted that its easing will begin only after a steady decline in inflation to 2%. The fundamental background for the British currency remains negative. Investors will follow further statements of the Bank of England and economic data, but in the near future the pound is likely to continue a gradual decline. Trading recommendation: Trading mainly with Sell orders from the current price level.

Breakout-reversal level entryAs you can see from the analysis we had a range that was broken below which created a double bottom( neckline as our Resistance), then price broke above and respected our resistance which caused us to have a New Support, which means we have a new level we can trade at. Price broke out and reversed towards the New Support, which is where I entered my trade and made some profits. So all in all, it's important to use your levels to look for entries, don't use levels that are not respected by the market also wait for the market to reached your setup and don't chase it. If you would like more detailed tutorials like these comment below so I can post more

GBP/USD Analysis:Hello Dear Traders, Take a look at the weekly chart; a clear bullish channel is evident here. We tend to long the pair in this situation, given that we are around the bottom of the bullish channel. However, I don't trade based on the weekly channel. On the daily chart, we see a bearish trend line and a gap towards the bottom of the channel. Breaking above the trend line on the daily chart would indicate more bullish movements in the future. However, examining the 2-hour chart, it appears that there might be a reversal following a strong bearish candle. This candle was formed due to the FOMC voting, and I believe there may be some sell orders left from that. Therefore, I predict more bearish movements on the 2-hour chart during the reversal.

GBPUSD InsightHello, subscribers! I hope you’re all doing well. Please share your personal opinions in the comments. Don’t forget to like and subscribe! Key Points - The Federal Reserve cut rates by 25 basis points during the December FOMC meeting. - Through the dot plot, the Fed hinted at a total of 50 basis points of rate cuts next year. - Fed Chair Jerome Powell mentioned during the press conference that the Fed’s policy stance is now significantly less restrictive and that it may be more cautious when considering further adjustments to the policy rate. - Markets interpreted the Fed’s rate cut as reluctant and viewed it as extremely hawkish. - The BOJ and BOE are set to announce their rate decisions today, with expectations of no changes. Key Economic Indicators + December 19: BOJ rate decision, BOE rate decision + December 20: U.S. November Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index GBP/USD Chart Analysis The dollar’s strength, influenced by the Fed’s hawkish stance, has led to a steep decline in GBP/USD. The pair has broken below the 1.26000 level, signaling a potential further drop toward the 1.25000 level. In the short term, additional declines are possible, and if GBP/USD falls below 1.25000, the pair may extend its losses to 1.23000. However, if a rebound occurs at the 1.25000 level, a rise toward 1.27000 could be expected.

GBPUSD: Breaking the trend line!GBPUSD is currently trading around 1.2705 and has not changed much since the start of the trading session. Early Tuesday morning, data released by the UK Office for National Statistics (ONS) showed that the ILO Unemployment Rate remained unchanged at 4.3% in the three months to October, as expected. During the period, Employment Change increased by 173,000, while annual wage inflation, measured by Average Earnings excluding bonuses, increased to 5.2% from 4.9%. Although the negative shift in risk sentiment has helped the US dollar gain ground in the European session, the GBP/USD pair remains flat but could fall as the bullish trendline and technical factors are broken.
