GBPUSD is in a downtrend.
Updated
⚡️The GBP/USD pair continued to struggle to gain any meaningful traction and weakened near its lowest since early June touched on Monday. Spot prices are currently trading around the 1.2380-1.2375 region and appear susceptible to an extension of the recent downward trajectory witnessed over the past two months or so.
⚡️Growing expectations that the Bank of England (BoE) is nearing the end of its interest rate hike cycle continue to weaken the British Pound (GBP) and act as a drag on the GBP/USD pair. On the other hand, the US Dollar (USD) remained on the defensive below six-month highs set last week and helped limit losses to spot prices. Traders also appear reluctant to bet aggressively and prefer to wait on the sidelines ahead of this week's key central bank event risks - the highly anticipated FOMC decision on Wednesday and its meeting BoE keynote on Thursday.
⚡️ This model also describes clearly, 5 elliot waves . We can completely trust this model.

⚡️The BoE has often seemed hesitant over the past months and has ultimately only reacted to inflationary pressures. It is therefore quite possible that it will announce a surprise rate pause while keeping the possibility of a rate step later in the year open. However, we assume that the BoE is more likely to take another rate step while at the same time sounding more dovish. It could for example hint that interest rates have now peakedTrade active
