On Friday, the GBP/USD pair traded with an upward bias, which was more logical, but it still fell by the end of the day. While the euro showed a clear correction, the pound maintained a clear downtrend. Only on Thursday did the price break through its last local low. The NonFarm Payrolls and ISM reports from the U.S. put pressure on the U.S. dollar but did not depreciate significantly. We have previously warned that the British currency should continue to decline in the medium term, as all factors contributing to its growth have already been priced in. The market understands that the Bank of England will not remain on the sidelines long and will lower its key rate. Since it has done so only once, it will likely cut rates more aggressively than the Federal Reserve or the European Central Bank. Thus, we believe the British currency has significant room for further decline.
Two decent trading signals were formed on Friday in the 5-minute timeframe. First, the price struggled to break through the 1.2913 level, but entering a trade 10 minutes before the release of U.S. labor market data was risky. Later, the price bounced off the 1.2980 level, which could have been attempted for trading. By the end of the day, the pair managed to return to the 1.2913 level.
In the hourly time frame, the GBP/USD pair made significant efforts to start a correction after a month of decline, but it has been unsuccessful. We fully support the pound's decline in the medium term, as we believe it is the only logical outcome. Soon, the pound may attempt another correction, but it will need macroeconomic and statistical support. This past week showed that such support is limited, and even when present, the pound has struggled to rise.
On Monday, novice traders can trade from the 1.2913 level.
On the 5-minute timeframe, trading can be done around the levels of 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, and 1.3365. No significant events are scheduled on Monday in the UK or the U.S., so we can likely expect dull trading with sluggish price movements.

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.
