Another look at US GDP | FX ResearchThe US dollar is mildly bid into the North American session as it continues to generate interest from the Trump trade tension. We believe most of this is more negotiation tactic than anything else, though for the time being, the unpredictability is impacting the currency market. US equities have done a better job dealing with all of this, with equity futures pointing notably higher. UK PM Starmer is in Washington today and is expected to attempt to secure support for Ukraine. The yen has been a standout loser on the day, with much of the selling attributed to reports showing long yen positioning as overextended. The Australian dollar has come under some pressure after another round of softer economic data. Looking ahead, we get a second and more in-depth look at US GDP along with durable goods, initial jobless claims, and pending home sales. We also get Canada’s current account, Canada weekly earnings, ECB minutes, and a round of Fed speak.

GBPUSD is expected to retrace to support around 1.2539 or 1.2433Here's my full thought process: What I See : I'm looking at the GBPUSD daily timeframe, and I see a recent upward move. This makes me think we might be in a bullish trend or a recovery phase. Key Levels I've Marked: I've identified 1.2861 as a resistance level. I'm thinking this could be my target if the price moves upwards. I've also marked 1.2539 and 1.2433 as potential support levels. I think the price might pull back to these areas. My Retracement Idea: I'm expecting a pullback from the current price. It's a common pattern in trending markets, and I believe that it will happen here. I'm watching those support zones (1.2539 and 1.2433) closely. I think buyers might step in there. I've added Fibonacci retracement levels (0.382 and 0.618) to my chart. I'm using these to gauge how deep the retracement might be. My Potential Upward Move Prediction: I'm targeting 1.2861 as a potential resistance level. I feel that the price has the potential to move upwards to that area after the retracement. I'm thinking this pullback will be a continuation of the bullish trend. So, I'm looking for buying opportunities at those support levels. Tools I'm Using: I'm using a Supply & Demand Zone Indicator. It helps me see potential buying and selling pressure areas. I'm also using Fibonacci retracement levels to predict retracement depths and potential entry points.

GBP/USD Bullish Recovery – Key Levels for a Breakout & ReversalHello, buddies. Given the decline, the price has now established a solid floor, and we expect it to continue growing; nevertheless, we must enter a price correction, therefore we have selected the best possible support point for you... We will wait for a new ceiling to be registered before proceeding with the purchase transaction, but with careful risk and capital management. *Trade safely with us* Overview: The GBP/USD 4-hour chart shows a potential bullish reversal after a significant downtrend. Price has formed a double-bottom pattern and has broken out of a descending trendline, signaling a shift in momentum. The chart highlights key areas of support and resistance that traders should watch for confirmation of a sustained move higher. Key Technical Analysis: Fake Breakout: A false breakdown below the trendline in August led to a sharp recovery, confirming a liquidity grab before a bullish continuation. Trendline Breakout: The price has successfully broken the descending trendline (orange line), indicating potential bullish strength. Support Zones: Blue Zone (~1.2450 - 1.2500): A strong demand area where buyers may re-enter. Purple Zone (~1.2120 - 1.2200): A deeper support level, acting as the last line of defense for bulls. Fibonacci Levels & Targets: 1.2785: First key resistance level. 1.3022: A major resistance and potential breakout zone. 1.3242: Final bullish target if momentum continues. Trade Plan: 📌 Buy Limit Entry: Around 1.2450-1.2500 (if price retests the support zone). 🎯 Target 1: 1.2785 🎯 Target 2: 1.3022 🎯 Target 3: 1.3242 🛑 Stop Loss: Below 1.2400 to minimize risk. Conclusion: The GBP/USD pair is showing signs of a potential bullish reversal. A short-term pullback to the blue support zone could provide an optimal buying opportunity before a strong upward move. However, a break below 1.2400 could invalidate this bullish setup, leading to a deeper correction. 🚀 Bullish Bias if Key Support Holds! 🚀

GBP/USD Short-Lived Bullish Momentum with a Bearish BiasThe GPBUSD are showing mixed signs across times frames 5min, 15m and 4H but suggests that bullish momentum will be short-lived as price approaches 1.2700. UK economic data has not been the best this week, as car registration data continues to show weakness leading me to believe that consumers are hesitant for bigger purchases. In the bigger picture of things we would likely see slowdowns in key market segments to follow which will pressure the pound over the medium term. Trade Ideas Bullish Trade Idea Entry: Buy on breakout above 1.2700 with strong volume confirmation. Stop-Loss: Below recent structure of 1.2670 Target TP1: 1.2730 short-term resistance Target TP2: 1.2750 key area of interest Risk to Reward: ~1:2 Bearish Trade Idea Entry: Sell on rejection from 1.2700 - 1.2710 Stop-Loss: Above structure high of 1.2715 Target TP1: 1.2625 intraday support Target TP2: 1.2600 psychological level Risk to Reward: ~1:2 From a macro perspective I do favour a bearish trade set-up due to the U.S economic data looking a bit robust, however tariff uncertainty will play against traders in the near to medium term. Because of this I would look for a breakdown of price action if price does not reach near term resistance. Entry Point: GBP/USD breaks below the 1.2650 support level Stop-Loss: slightly above 1.2670 Target TP1: 1.2625 Target TP2: 1.2600

GBPUSD Will Go Up From Support! Buy! Please, check our technical outlook for GBPUSD. Time Frame: 2h Current Trend: Bullish Sentiment: Oversold (based on 7-period RSI) Forecast: Bullish The price is testing a key support 1.267. Current market trend & oversold RSI makes me think that buyers will push the price. I will anticipate a bullish movement at least to 1.272 level. P.S Please, note that an oversold/overbought condition can last for a long time, and therefore being oversold/overbought doesn't mean a price rally will come soon, or at all.

GBPUSD - Dollar’s ​​eye on the Fed?!The GBPUSD pair is above the EMA200 and EMA50 on the 4-hour timeframe and is moving in its ascending channel. In case of a downward correction, the pair can be bought within the specified demand range. The Federal Reserve of the United States has embarked on a process that could have profound implications for the global economy: a reassessment of the framework used to determine interest rates. These rates influence borrowing costs and prices not only in the U.S. but also across much of the world.To implement this reform effectively, the Federal Reserve must first identify the core issue. During the January meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee, central bank policymakers emphasized that the new framework must be “resilient to a wide range of conditions.” This marks a step in the right direction, given that the current framework, established in 2020, proved inadequate in responding to the economic disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 framework was introduced at a time when inflation consistently remained below the Fed’s 2% target. To compensate for this shortfall, policymakers committed to allowing inflation to run above target. Specifically, the Fed pledged to keep short-term interest rates near zero until three conditions were met: • The economy achieved maximum sustainable employment, • Inflation reached 2%, • Inflation was expected to remain above 2% for some time. Additionally, interest rate hikes could not begin until the central bank had concluded its asset purchase program, known as quantitative easing (QE)—a process that itself depended on substantial progress toward meeting the three stated conditions. As a result, the Federal Reserve was significantly delayed in responding to a strong economy, a tight labor market, and accelerating inflation. When rate hikes finally began in March 2022, real GDP growth remained robust, unemployment was below the level deemed sustainable by policymakers, and the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge had already exceeded 5%. Despite these clear signals, debates persist about whether the Fed’s policy framework was to blame. Some argue that the central bank merely made a forecasting error, later compensating with aggressive monetary tightening. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has echoed this view, calling the framework “useless.” However, had the Federal Reserve disregarded this framework and instead adhered to traditional policy rules, it likely would have started raising short-term rates about a year earlier. Another argument is that the inflation surge, which was observed globally, was beyond the Fed’s control. However, in the U.S., surging demand for goods—bolstered by a massive fiscal stimulus—played a significant role in driving up global prices. Additionally, while many other countries faced dramatic increases in energy prices, this factor played a relatively minor role in the U.S. inflation spike. A third perspective holds that the Biden administration’s $1.9 trillion stimulus package was excessively large. While this undoubtedly contributed to economic overheating, it was still the Fed’s responsibility to account for its effects and respond with tighter monetary policy. Identifying these missteps is crucial. Otherwise, how can we be confident that the Federal Reserve won’t repeat them? Credibility is essential; without it, policymakers will struggle to influence financial markets and the broader economy effectively. To restore confidence, the Fed must address the shortcomings of the 2020 framework. It should abandon policies that kept interest rates artificially low for too long and adopt a more cautious approach to quantitative easing (QE) and quantitative tightening (QT). Finally, it should reconsider whether interbank interest rates remain the best policy tool or if focusing on the interest rate banks pay on reserves would be more effective.
