GBP/USD LONGHi ! Based on the current price action and I have prepared 2 trades for next week. First is a long position from 1.287 where is VAL , price has respected this area, making it a good level for initiating a smaller long position with limited risk. Forward I am looking at 1.3 area and looking to scaling in after confirmation above 1.302 ensures that I participate in the trend continuation without overexposing prematurely. Step 1: Small Entry at 1.287 Entry: Long position at 1.287. Stop Loss: Below 1.2800. Take Profit: Partial profit near resistance at 1.3000, or hold until breakout confirmation. Step 2: Scale In After Breakout Entry Trigger: Wait for price action to break and hold above 1.302 (confirmed by strong candlestick close or volume spike). Entry Price: Enter larger position at 1.302. Stop Loss: Below recent breakout level (~1.295). Take Profit Levels: First Target: 1.3200. Second Target: 1.3400. FX:GBPUSD

GBP/USD Breaks Rising Channel – Bearish Target Ahead!Key Observations: Rising Channel: The price was trading within an ascending channel, bouncing between resistance and support. Breakout & Sell Signal: The price has broken below the channel support, indicating a potential trend reversal. Bearish Target: The next key support level is around 1.27024, aligning with a previous demand zone. Confirmation: If the price stays below 1.29165, further downside movement is likely. Trading Idea: Short Entry: After confirmation of a breakdown below support. Target: 1.27024 (next major support level). Stop Loss: Above 1.30127 (previous resistance). This setup suggests bearish momentum as long as the price remains below the broken support. Traders should watch for retests and volume confirmation.

GBP/USD Analysis: Pair Fails to Hold Above Psychological LevelGBP/USD Analysis: Pair Fails to Hold Above Psychological Level As shown in today’s GBP/USD chart, the pair failed to maintain its position above the psychological level of 1.3000 USD per pound, where it had reached its highest point since early 2025. The decline followed recent central bank decisions and statements, with both the Bank of England and the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates unchanged. On one side, the Bank of England: → Warned of inflation risks, partly driven by external factors such as US trade tariffs. → Indicated a potential rate cut in the coming months. On the other hand, the US dollar strengthened on Thursday after the Federal Reserve signalled reluctance to rush further rate cuts this year, despite uncertainties surrounding US tariffs. These statements highlighted the challenges market participants face in assessing the risks posed by tariffs on global trade. Technical Analysis of GBP/USD In March, the pound followed an upward trend against the US dollar, forming an ascending channel (marked in blue). However, once the price moved above the key 1.3000 level, the upper boundary of the channel appeared out of reach—possibly signalling weakening buying momentum. As a result, the price broke below the lower boundary of the channel, which has now shown signs of resistance (indicated by an arrow). If bearish pressure persists, the price could fall towards the dotted trendline below the channel, at a distance equal to its height. Additionally, a test of the previous local low around 1.2911 cannot be ruled out. This article represents the opinion of the Companies operating under the FXOpen brand only.

GBP Retreats as BoE Maintains PolicyThe pound dipped below $1.30, retreating from a four-month high after the BoE held rates at 4.5% and signaled a cautious approach to easing policy, despite recent inflation progress. Global trade tensions added pressure, with new U.S. tariffs prompting retaliatory moves and raising inflation risks. UK data showed weak growth, steady 4.4% unemployment, and wage growth easing to 5.8%, in line with forecasts. In the U.S., the Fed kept rates steady but reaffirmed plans for two cuts this year. If GBP/USD breaks above 1.3050, the next resistance levels are 1.3100 and 1.3150. On the downside, support stands at 1.2860, with further levels at 1.2800 and 1.2715 if selling pressure increases.
