GBPUSD POTENTIAL SHORT OPPORTUNITYHello Everyone! How are you all? GbpUsd is a pair to watch this week, because it is shaping up very nicely for a bearish trend continuation that we can capitalize on. So, I will be looking for a sell continuation because of the following reasons: 1. The overall trend is bearish 2. The price has formed a continuation structure. 3. The price is approached the value area. Game Plan: If the price bearish impulse followed by a 15mins flag with two highs and lows.

GBPUSD analysis week 7🌐Fundamental Analysis The US dollar is under heavy selling pressure, opening the door for GBP/USD to rise as risk-on flows dominate financial markets. US President Donald Trump refrained from announcing new reciprocal tariffs on Thursday, instead explaining that he has tasked his economic team with drawing up plans to impose reciprocal tariffs on every country that taxes US imports, triggering a risk-on rally. At press time, US stock index futures were trading sideways on the day. Should major Wall Street indices open on a bullish note and continue higher into the weekend, GBP/USD could extend its weekly gains. 🕯Technical Analysis GBPUSD is pulling back to 1.250 and is looking for some buying interest towards the 1.272 resistance. The support at 1.250 is supported by two EMAs and a trendline. This trading range is the focus next week and it is quite difficult to break this trading range. 📈📉Trading Signals BUY GBPUSD 1.250-1.248 Stoloss 1.245 SELL GBPUSD 1.272-1.274 Stoploss 1.277

GBPUSD GBP/USD, also known as “Cable,” represents the exchange rate between the British pound and the U.S. dollar. It is one of the most liquid and actively traded currency pairs in the forex market. The pair is influenced by interest rate decisions from the Bank of England (BoE) and the Federal Reserve (Fed), economic data releases, inflation reports, and geopolitical developments. GBP/USD tends to be most volatile during the London and New York trading sessions, when market liquidity is at its peak. Traders closely watch UK and U.S. economic performance to anticipate price movements and trading opportunities.

Why GBPUSD will continue going upAs we can see Price respected the Demand level and changed directions Our CHoC was broken and price kept making new Higher highs and higher lows to confirm that buyers/bulls are in control of the Market and signifies an uptrend We have a new higher high that the price looks like it'll break through it and that will confirm the volume of the bulls is high, also our weak low shows how our Bears are inferior The best choice would be to wait for a breakout of the recent Higher high and place our buy entries after, as this would have confirmed buyers are in total control and would give us more winning opportunities If somehow the market breaks the Solid low then this invalidates bulls and show that bears are in control.

GBPUSDShort Fundamental Analysis – GBP/USD 1. Context • Bank of England (BoE) • Maintains relatively high interest rates to address persistent inflation in the UK. • Debate surrounds whether the BoE will continue hiking or pause, especially given signs of moderating economic growth. • Federal Reserve (Fed) • Keeps interest rates elevated to combat US inflation, supported by robust economic indicators (GDP ~+2.6%, unemployment ~3.7%). • A strong US economy bolsters the dollar, making it a consistent headwind for GBP. 2. Possible Direction • Bias: Slightly bearish on GBP/USD, as the Fed’s high rates and stable US data often strengthen the USD more than the BoE’s hawkish stance supports the pound. • Alternate Scenario: • If UK inflation or wage data exceed expectations, it could prompt additional BoE rate hikes, temporarily boosting GBP. • A notably dovish shift by the Fed would also offer upside for GBP/USD. 3. Factors to Watch This Week 1. UK Economic Releases • Inflation (CPI), wage growth, and unemployment figures can significantly influence BoE policy expectations. 2. US Data & Fed Communications • Any sign of softer US growth or more dovish Fed statements might weaken the dollar, supporting GBP/USD. 3. Global Risk Appetite • During risk-off periods, the USD often gains at the expense of GBP. Conversely, risk-on flows could help the pound. 4. Overall Conclusion • GBP benefits from a hawkish BoE stance but faces economic uncertainties and still-elevated inflation. • USD maintains broad support on higher yields and resilient US growth. • In the near term, GBP/USD could remain under pressure unless either UK data proves surprisingly strong or the Fed pivots dovishly.

Potential of a Reversed Head and Shoulders PatternUK preliminary GDP for Q4 released this morning surprisingly rose 0.1% versus a decline of 0.1% that was expected, meaning the UK economy registered some growth at the end of 2024. While that may not seem like much it comes at an interesting time for GBPUSD, which has briefly traded back to 1 week highs above 1.2500, and brings into focus an interesting technical pattern known as a reversed head and shoulders. This reversed head and shoulders pattern is a potential indication of a positive shift in trader sentiment in favour of sterling and may be an early sign that the market may be about to encounter a period of GBPUSD price strength. Now, much will depend on future price movements and the outcome of some key scheduled events, such as the US factory gate inflation (PPI) release at 1330 GMT later today, or tomorrow’s UK retail sales update which is released at 0700 GMT, but its something that is worth being aware of at the close of trading today. Potential Reversed Head and Shoulders Pattern: The pattern forms when 3 distinct lows are posted in price on a chart, with the first low the left hand shoulder, the 2nd, which is lower than the left hand shoulder, called the head and a 3rd low, which is again higher than the ‘head’ marking the right hand shoulder. If this pattern is forming within the daily GBPUSD chart, the left hand shoulder could be marked by the January 2nd low at 1.2352, the head by the January 13th extreme at 1.2100, and the right hand shoulder by 1.2249, which is the February 3rd price low. The reversal is said to be completed if, after the 3rd low (1.2249), price strength can close above the trendline connecting the latest highs, which is called the neckline of the reversal. With GBPUSD prices moving briefly to the upside after this morning’s UK GDP data update, a daily close above what may prove to be the neckline of its reversed head and shoulders, at 1.2530, might complete the reversal pattern. Just because completion of similar reversal patterns have resulted in price strength is no guarantee it will do so again here, but if it were to happen, it’s possible a more extended retracement of the price weakness seen since the September 26th high at 1.3434, to the January 13th price low at 1.2100 may be seen. Potential Resistance if Price Strength Develops: The 38% Fibonacci retracement of this phase of weakness stands at 1.2609 and if this is broken on a closing basis, it could shift any potential upside focus to 1.2766, which is the higher mid-point level. That said, within technical analysis, it is suggested that if a reversed head and shoulders pattern is completed, you can measure the distance between the neckline and the bottom of the Head and project that distance higher from the point of any neckline break. If this is a valid pattern and closes above the 1.2530 neckline materialise, this might lead traders to suggest 1.3000 is a possible objective, but time will tell. Potential Support if Recent Price Strength Fails: Of course, it is possible this type of reversal fails, and price weakness is seen even after completion of such a pattern. If this proves to be the case, it could be closing breaks below the latest low at 1.2332 from February 11th that may suggest the pattern isn’t valid.

GBPUSD pair trend up or down nextGBPUSD Comments: 🔆GBP/USD edged higher toward 1.250, gaining 0.31%, as the US dollar faced selling pressure during the Asian session. Market sentiment improved due to the absence of new developments regarding former US President Donald Trump’s trade policies and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s cautious stance on the policy outlook. 🔆Traders are now focused on the UK’s preliminary GDP data set to be released today. Given the recent weak economic indicators from the UK, expectations for the GDP report remain negative for the British pound. Meanwhile, the US economy continues to show resilience with strong data. 🔆The 1.250 level acts as a key psychological resistance, making a short-term pullback in GBP/USD likely. Plan: 🔆Price Zone Setup: 👉Sell GBPUSD 1.2495 - 1.2510 ❌SL: 1.2550 | ✅TP: 1.2455 - 1.2400 – 1.2350

GBPUSDThe upcoming economic events, specifically the Claimant Count Change and Bank of England (BOE) Governor Andrew Bailey's speech, are likely to influence the GBP/USD trade directional bias for the week ahead. Key Events and Their Potential Impact Claimant Count Change: What It Is: This report measures the change in the number of people claiming unemployment benefits in the UK. A decrease in claims typically indicates a strengthening labor market, which can boost the currency. Forecast: If the claimant count shows a smaller increase or a decrease compared to previous figures, it could support the British Pound (GBP) against the U.S. Dollar (USD), potentially pushing GBP/USD higher. BOE Governor Bailey's Speech: Bailey's comments can provide insights into the BOE's monetary policy direction, particularly regarding interest rates and inflation expectations. Market Reaction: If Bailey signals a hawkish stance or hints at potential rate hikes, it could strengthen the GBP as traders anticipate tighter monetary policy. Conversely, a dovish tone may weaken the GBP. The combination of labor market data and central bank commentary will play a crucial role in determining the GBP/USD directional bias next week. Positive labor market data and hawkish signals from Bailey could lead to a bullish sentiment for GBP/USD, while disappointing data or dovish comments could result in downward pressure on the pair. we will watch closely these developments for potential trading opportunities.
