GBP/USD: Will NFP Make the Dollar Drop?GBP/USD weakens around 1.3010 during the European session on Wednesday, staying within a descending channel since September, as the market awaits key economic data, including the UK Autumn Budget, October’s ADP Employment Change, and US Q3 GDP. A close above 1.2975 could attract buyers, pushing the price toward 1.3050, while support remains at 1.2895. The pound remains vulnerable to potential negative economic surprises or restrictive fiscal measures announced in the Budget, as indicated by Prime Minister Starmer, which could increase volatility. Positive US economic data, especially on employment and growth, could strengthen the dollar and further push GBP/USD lower. I am currently long on GBP/USD from last week, aiming for a 1:4 RR. Currently, I'm at a 1:2 RR with SL at BE, so risk-free. Have a great day and happy trading, everyone!

BoE's plans for additional rate cuts are in conflict Expectations are mounting that the BoE would implement additional rate cuts. BoE Governor Andrew Bailey has stated that inflation is decreasing more rapidly than anticipated. The UK CPI for September registered at 1.7%, falling short of the central bank's 2% target, which has intensified speculation about upcoming rate increases. Wall Street is convinced that with UK inflation already below the target, there's a strong likelihood of additional rate cuts in November and December following the recent 25bp reduction. However, there are concerns regarding the potential aftereffects of hasty rate cuts. BoE economist Catherine Mann emphasizes that, despite a general slowdown in inflation, service price inflation continues to soar. She warns that an impulsive rate hike could reignite inflationary pressures. GBPUSD advanced to the 1.3000 threshold. After breaching the descending channel’s upper bound, the price holds above both EMAs, signaling a trend reversal. If GBPUSD breaches the resistance at 1.3045, the price may gain upward momentum toward 1.3265. Conversely, if GBPUSD fails to hold above both EMAs, the price may break the channel’s upper bound again and re-enter the descending channel.

GBPUSD Bearish Sentiment Today's analysis continues to give a bearish prediction. However, in forex, anything can happen as we still have a bullish trend in the daily timeframe playing out. We look There are some uncertainties but we know we are currently on a key level that has retested and moving on the downside. Let's see how the market plays out before taking a position. However, my bias is bearish on the monthly time frame as we are looking forward to seeing more bearish months ahead. Except a piece of good news from the Pound to make it bullish or something goes wrong in the US economy that gives the Pound an advantage to rise.

GPB/USD continues the downtrendOn GBP/USD , it's nice to see a strong sell-off from the price of 1.30045 and 1.30210. It's also encouraging to observe a strong volume area where a lot of contracts are accumulated. I believe that sellers from this area will defend their short positions. When the price returns to this area, strong sellers will push the market down again. The downtrend combined with the strong volume area are my main reasons for this short trade. Happy trading, Dale

GBPUSD entry analysisGBPUSD Analysis After outperforming its rivals in the first half of the week, the US Dollar (USD) lost some of its strength on Thursday, with the US Dollar Index down 0.4%. The positive shift in risk sentiment made it difficult for the USD to find demand, while falling US Treasury yields further weighed on the currency. The September Durable Goods Orders and the October University of Michigan (UoM) Consumer Sentiment Index will be on the US economic calendar on Friday. The UoM data is unlikely to cause a reaction as it will be a revision. If Durable Goods Orders unexpectedly rise, the initial reaction could support the USD. On the other hand, a worse-than-expected reading of -1% could hurt the currency and allow GBP/USD to move higher towards the end of the week. Meanwhile, US stock futures were last up 0.1% to 0.2%. A bullish open on Wall Street could attract risk-on money and weaken the USD further in the second half of the day. Technical Analysis GBPUSD BUY entry is set around the current price zone with a Fibonacci retracement of 0.618. The current price zone is expected to capture the end of wave 2 and form a breakout point for wave 3 according to the Elliot wave pattern. Wish you a successful trading day.
