The GBP/USD pair continued its correction on Thursday. We consider the Bank of England meeting results "moderately dovish" while the Federal Reserve's "moderately hawkish." In simple terms, Andrew Bailey stated that the BoE is prepared to continue easing monetary policy, while Jerome Powell indicated that the Fed might pause in December. This creates room for the U.S. dollar to continue its rise.
Recently, the pound has been trading within a restricted range, with its movements best described as "swings." At the same time, these swings can be considered a correction, which suggests that the pound has already corrected. Powell did not emphasize the weak Nonfarm Payrolls report or discuss labor market weakness. Both central banks lowered their rates by 25 basis points.
Several trading signals were generated in the 5-minute time frame on Thursday, but two out of three appeared shortly before the results of the central bank meetings were announced. Therefore, it was reasonable to trade only the first buy signal near the 1.2913 level. After the signal, the price moved only 20 pips in the desired direction, so the trade closed at break-even via a Stop Loss.
In the hourly time frame, the GBP/USD pair has attempted to correct after a month-long decline but failed. We've only observed a semblance of a flat range between 1.2860 and 1.3043. We fully support a continued decline in the pound in the medium term, as we believe this is the only logical outcome. The pound may attempt another correction in the short term, but it needs support, which it did not receive from the Fed or the BoE.
On Friday, novice traders can expect the downtrend to resume, and trading opportunities can be found around 1.2980-1.2993, which the pound failed to breach on Thursday.
In the 5-minute time frame, it is now possible to trade at 1.2791-1.2798, 1.2848-1.2860, 1.2913, 1.2980-1.2993, 1.3043, 1.3102-1.3107, 1.3145-1.3167, 1.3225, 1.3272, 1.3365. For Friday, no macroeconomic events are scheduled in the UK, while in the U.S., the only report is the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index. A slight uptick in volatility may occur in the afternoon, closer to the evening.
Support and Resistance Levels: Levels that serve as targets for opening buys or sells. Take Profit levels can be placed around these areas.
Red Lines: Channels or trend lines that indicate the current trend and the preferred trading direction.
MACD Indicator (14,22,3): Histogram and signal line—an auxiliary indicator that can also be used as a source of signals.
Major speeches and reports (always found in the news calendar) can significantly impact currency pair movements. Therefore, it's advised to trade cautiously or exit the market during their release to avoid sharp price reversals against prior movements.
