GBP/USD Testing Key Resistance at 1.2770 – Breakout or reversal?Technical analysis shows that GBPUSD is near a psychological resistance range of 1.2750-1.2770. If the price breaks above this resistance, there is strong potential for an upward movement toward 1.2800-1.2850, supported by momentum indicators such as RSI and MACD, which still indicate a weak bullish trend. Trading Recommendations: Entry Point (TP1): 1.2761 Target 1 (TP2): 1.2940 Target 2 (TP3): 1.3160 Stop Loss: 1.2500

GBPUSD → Channel breakout. Attempt to change the trendFX:GBPUSD finds an opportunity to grow. A breakout of the local trend resistance is forming amid the dollar correction. Zones of interest: 1.300 The retest of the intermediate bottom ends with reversal candlestick patterns and market reversal structure. The big question is: How long will it last? It all depends on the dollar. The US market received negative jobless claims data yesterday, which may also affect the NFP, which will be released later today. A worse-than-expected data will intensify the dollar correction, pointing to the problems in the economy (against what Powell said recently). In such a scenario, forex currencies may get a chance for a small rally. Technically, a channel breakout is a good signal that could turn into a strong momentum, but apparently traders are not in a hurry yet.... Resistance levels: 1.284, 1.300 Support levels: 1.272, 1.261, 1.2488 Accordingly, if a false breakout of resistance is formed and the price falls beyond 1.272, then we should expect a decline to 1.24. But at the moment there are positive signs to gain from 1.275 to 1.300 in the medium term. Rate, share your opinion and questions, let's discuss what's going on with ★ FX:GBPUSD ;) Regards R. Linda!

GBPUSD may continue into bullish phaseGBPUSD may continue into bullish phase The GBP/USD outlook reveals a short-term bullish trend for the GBP driven by seasonal factors, likely pushing the pair toward 1.32–1.33 until mid-December. However, this strength is expected to be short-lived as the USD's dominance, supported by stronger macroeconomic fundamentals, safe-haven demand, and bearish non-commercial trader positioning, comes into play. Exogenous factors and global risk sentiment also favor the USD, which could lead to a reversal, pulling GBP/USD lower to levels around 1.28–1.29 after mid-December. Traders should leverage the temporary bullish momentum while preparing for a likely USD resurgence in the medium term.

British pound rises as UK Construction PMI jumpsThe British pound has extended its gains for a third straight trading day. In the North American session, GBP/USD is trading at 1.2757, up 0.45% on the day. The UK Construction sector rose to 55.2 in November, up from 54.3 in October and above the market estimate of 53.4. This indicates strong expansion but the report contained mixed figures. Commercial work sparkled as it jumped to its highest level in 2.5 years. On the other side of the coin, residential work fell to its lowest level since June, as home-building was been dampened by high interest rates and weak consumer confidence. The UK economy is fragile, with a stagnant services sector and manufacturing in contraction mode. The Bank of England has joined the easing cycle and has lowered rates twice this year, with the last cut in November. The BoE meets on Dec. 19 and is widely expected to hold the cash rate at 4.75%. The markets have priced in three rate cuts in 2025 and there was some surprise when BoE Governor Bailey hinted on Wednesday that the central bank was looking at four rate cuts if the BoE’s inflation projections proved correct. Bailey noted that inflation had fallen one percent lower than the BoE forecasted a year ago. Bailey’s optimistic stance on inflation means that the BoE could be aggressive in its rate-cutting cycle in 2025. With US inflation largely contained, the nonfarm payroll release has again become one of the most significant economic releases on the calendar. The November report is expected to rise to a respectable 200 thousand, after a weak gain of 12 thousand in October, which was driven downwards by hurricanes and work stoppages at Boeing. GBP/USD tested resistance at 1.2737 earlier. The next resistance line is 1.2775 1.2684 and 1.2646 are the next support levels
