GBPUSD Weekly Outlook: New perspective for the week | Follow-up
Updated
The Pound Sterling experienced a notable rise of 2.16% to reach 1.27 during the month of June. Despite the relatively weak first-quarter gross domestic product growth of just 0.1%, the sterling showed potential for a continuation of its upward trend.
Interestingly, traders have been factoring in additional rate hikes from the Bank of England due to the country's persistently high inflation rate, which stood at 8.7% in May, the highest among major advanced economies.
In contrast, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has indicated that the U.S. central bank is likely to resume its rate-hiking cycle after a pause in June. Recent data revealed that the U.S. economy grew more than initially estimated in the first quarter, and jobless claims data indicated a robust labor market.
One of the highly anticipated economic releases from the U.S. is the June official employment report, scheduled for release next Friday. Market consensus suggests an increase of 200,000 in payrolls. These indicators demonstrate that the U.S. economy is showing resilience despite persistent inflation concerns. How will the GBPUSD pair respond to these upcoming events?
This video presents a comprehensive analysis of the bullish and bearish sentiment in GBPUSD, with a particular focus on the technical examination within the Daily and 4-hour timeframes. Key levels, trendlines, and support and resistance levels are explored to identify potential trading opportunities for the upcoming week. Of note, attention is drawn to the week's key level at $1.27000, which aligns with a descending trendline identified in the 4-hour timeframe. The market's reaction to this zone at the beginning of the week will play a crucial role in determining the direction of price action in the days ahead.

The beginning of the new week/month seems to have commenced with a bearish tone, as the price action remains below our key level for the week and has also broken below the initial support line at $1.26880. If one missed the opportunity at the breakdown, a potential bearish confirmation may arise with a retest of the market structure. We will delve into this market structure extensively in our upcoming live session for a detailed discussion.Happy new month!

Sell position closed at break even as buying pressure resumesNote
Over the past six hours, the market has exhibited choppy behavior, with price action returning to the range we identified earlier today. The possibility of sellers influencing the market remains present, especially if the newly identified ascending trendline (blue) is breached, indicating potential selling opportunities. On the other hand, if the price manages to break out or retest both the weekly resistance level at $1.27070 and the descending trendline on the 4-hour chart (as shown in the video), this would create buying opportunities.Note
Over the past 20 hours, trading activities have been confined within a narrow range, with price action trapped between the $1.27070 and $1.26880 levels. Currently, we find ourselves in a situation where we must patiently wait for a breakout or breakdown of this range in order to identify potential trading opportunities.Good Morning
