Pound Stable Ahead of BoE Interest Rate Decision Today

Technical Market Outlook

The GBP/USD pair has rebounded from the 1.2500 support level following the FED's decision to keep interest rates at 5.50%. The pair broke above 1.2601 and 1.2611, establishing these as new support levels. The next target is 1.2656, although market volatility has reduced significantly ahead of today's Bank of England (BoE) interest rate decision. The momentum on the H4 chart is strong and positive, rebounding from oversold conditions. The short-term outlook is bullish, but a break above 1.2656 is needed to continue the upward trend.

Important Reminder

The begginers in forex trading need to be very careful when making decisions about entering the market. Before the release of important reports, it is best to stay out of the market to avoid being caught in sharp market fluctuations due to increased volatility. If you decide to trade during the news release, then always place stop orders to minimize losses.

Without placing stop orders, you can very quickly lose your entire deposit, especially if you do not use money management and trade large volumes. For successful trading, you need to have a clear trading plan and stay focues and disciplined. Spontaneous trading decision based on the current market situation is an inherently losing strategy for a scalper or daytrader.
