On Wednesday, the GBP/USD pair continued its downward movement, showing no signs of correction. Similar to the euro, only one report could have influenced buyers or sellers yesterday. In reality, it supported neither. The U.S. Consumer Price Index matched market expectations, leaving no significant reason for the market to react. However, the market once again demonstrated that the current situation is not driven by U.S. inflation or the Federal Reserve's upcoming decision in December. Instead, the market continues to rebalance the dollar's exchange rate—a trend we predicted throughout the year's first half. The British pound rose similarly for two years, often without justification, while the market ignored numerous factors favoring the U.S. dollar. We are witnessing a logical decline in the pound and the strengthening of the dollar. This has nothing to do with Trump.
Some levels were also revised on Wednesday in the 5-minute timeframe. The price bounced three times from the 1.2754 level, dropping to the 1.2680–1.2685. Although it failed to break below this zone on the first attempt, it may not hold today. Thus, we currently see no signs of even a minor upward correction. The pound can easily continue its decline.
In the hourly time frame, GBP/USD continues to trend downward. Over the past few weeks, we observed a flat movement between 1.2860 and 1.3043, but this range broke on Tuesday. We fully support the pound's decline in the medium term, as it appears to be the only logical direction. While the pound may attempt another correction soon, it will require strong support to materialize.
On Thursday, novice traders can anticipate the downward movement persisting if the price breaks below the 1.2680–1.2685 area. The price has already consolidated slightly below this zone.
On the 5-minute TF, you can now trade at 1.2547, 1.2633, 1.2680-1.2685, 1.2754, 1.2791-1.2798, 1.2848-1.2860, 1.2913, 1.2980-1.2993, 1.3043. On Thursday, the UK's economic calendar is empty, while the U.S. will release a few reports unlikely to impact market sentiment significantly. Powell's speech will carry more weight, but how could Powell possibly help the euro or the pound?
Support and Resistance Levels: Levels that serve as targets for opening buys or sells. Take Profit levels can be placed around these areas.

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.
