The GBP/USD pair continued its upward movement on Tuesday, which began on Monday. Yesterday, the market had valid reasons to buy the pound; today, even more reasons may emerge. We previously noted that the primary factor supporting the British pound is the extremely slow pace of monetary policy easing by the Bank of England. The macroeconomic backdrop is bolstering this factor.
Yesterday, data showed that average wages in the UK rose to 5.2%, significantly exceeding the expectations of the Bank of England and analysts. Rising wages indicate that inflation is likely to accelerate further. Within an hour, the UK will release its inflation report, which could confirm this hypothesis. Tomorrow, the BoE will hold its meeting, during which it is highly likely that the interest rate will be left unchanged. This set of factors is driving the pound higher.
However, the ongoing three-week upward movement is still classified as a correction. Therefore, we are waiting for this correction to conclude.
On the 5-minute timeframe, several trading signals were formed on Tuesday, but traders largely ignored the crucial 1.2680–1.2685 area throughout the day. In other words, buyers forcibly pushed the pound through this area, making the signals around it very inaccurate, if they can even be considered signals. Novice traders could open long positions following the release of UK data. The nearest target level of 1.2723 was reached.
On the hourly timeframe, the GBP/USD pair has presumably completed its upward correction, but there is no certainty or guarantee. In the medium term, we fully support the pound's decline, as we believe this is the only logical outcome. Therefore, we expect the British currency to continue declining soon. However, this week, close attention should be paid to fundamental and macroeconomic factors which are currently pushing the pound higher.
For Wednesday, novice traders can trade again from the 1.2680–1.2685 area, but the fundamental and macroeconomic backdrop may significantly affect the accuracy of technical signals today.
On the 5-minute timeframe, trading can currently be conducted at the following levels: 1.2387, 1.2445, 1.2502–1.2508, 1.2547, 1.2633, 1.2680–1.2685, 1.2723, 1.2791–1.2798, 1.2848–1.2860, 1.2913, 1.2980–1.2993. On Wednesday, the UK will release its inflation report, which significantly impacts the BoE's policies. In the US, the FOMC meeting will take place, a significant event in its own right.
