Chart Analysis
GBP/USD appears to be rising, supported by the trendline, suggesting potential growth up to the 1.34000 level. However, if Trump wins the election, there may be an adjustment to the Fed’s rate cut pace, which could impact market direction. If the lower trend support breaks, GBP/USD is likely to retreat toward the 1.26000 line.
If market direction shifts downward due to various factors, we will promptly adjust our strategy.
