Fundamental Market Analysis for May 8, 2025 GBPUSDEvents to pay attention today:
15:30 EET. USD - Number of Initial Jobless Claims
14:00 EET. USD - Bank of England Key Interest Rate Decision
GBPUSD:
GBP/USD was down six-tenths of a per cent on Wednesday as markets continued to hold on to the safe-haven US dollar. The Federal Reserve (Fed) left rates unchanged as markets had expected, but Fed policymakers, still adopting a wait-and-see stance, curbed risk appetite during the midweek market session. The Bank of England (BoE) will hold its own rate meeting on Thursday and is expected to cut rates by another quarter point.
Forex Today: All eyes on the Bank of England
Market sentiment declined after Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's press conference. He said that US trade tariffs could hamper the Fed's inflation and employment targets this year. Powell warned that continued policy instability could force the Fed to take a ‘wait-and-see’ approach to interest rates. While the Trump administration's tariffs have weighed heavily on consumer and business sentiment, the lack of significant negative economic data makes it difficult for the Fed to justify an immediate change in interest rates.
Powell: The right thing to do is to wait for further clarity
The Bank of England is expected to cut the rate by a further quarter point at its upcoming meeting on Thursday, marking the fourth rate cut since it peaked in 2023. The Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) is expected to vote nine to one in favour of another rate cut in an attempt to support the faltering UK economy.
Trading recommendation: SELL 1.3330, SL 1.3350, TP 1.3230

GPBUSD... 4H CHAT PATTERNMY considering a **GBP/USD long (buy) position** at **1.3290**, with:
* 🎯 **Target**: 1.3460 (170 pips)
* 🛑 **Stop Loss**: 1.3260 (30 pips)
* 📊 **Risk/Reward Ratio**: 30:170 ≈ **1:5.7** (excellent RR)
### Quick Evaluation:
* **Pros**:
* Solid risk/reward ratio.
* Tight stop suggests strong conviction on support.
* Upside room of 170 pips indicates a swing or trend-following play.
* **Risks**:
* Very close stop loss (30 pips) means market noise could hit it easily unless there's a very clear support zone near 1.3260.
* News events (e.g., NFP, central bank comments) can trigger volatility. Make sure no major announcements are pending.
### Tips:
* Confirm support at/near 1.3260 with technicals (e.g., previous lows, Fib levels, moving averages).
* Use proper position sizing—don’t risk more than 1–2% of your capital.
* Consider scaling out partial profits near resistance levels before 1.3460.
GBP/USD at a Crossroads: Breakout or Breakdown?The GBP/USD has been in a strong uptrend since early 2025, rallying from around 1.2100 to a recent peak near 1.3450.
The daily chart shows a pullback from this high, indicating consolidation or a corrective phase. Despite short-term bearish pressure, the broader trend remains intact above key support at 1.3200 and 1.3000.
On the hourly chart, price action reveals a consolidation range between 1.3260 and 1.3400, forming lower highs and signaling potential bearish continuation if support at 1.3320 breaks. Conversely, repeated rejections below 1.3400 without major selloffs suggest buyers may still be present.
The 15-minute chart highlights tight intraday consolidation between 1.3335 and 1.3355, forming a potential bear flag or ascending triangle. A break below 1.3320 could target 1.3280–1.3250.
A breakout above 1.3380–1.3400 may resume the uptrend toward 1.3450–1.3500.
The higher-probability scenario is a bullish continuation, but caution is advised given decreasing momentum.
