The GBP/USD pair also traded higher on Monday, driven by the initiation of a criminal investigation against Jerome Powell. Powell himself has already commented on the situation, calling it a result of constant White House pressure on the Fed. The market reacted with a sell-off of the US currency, which is another factor in the US dollar's future decline, a decline that many have accumulated over the past year. The GBP/USD pair has been trading more sideways than up or down in recent weeks, but overall, the uptrend remains. In our view, Donald Trump's policy will continue to have a destructive effect on the US currency. Even Trump's geopolitical ambitions will not increase demand for the US currency as a "safe asset." Recall that Trump staged a coup in Venezuela at the beginning of the year, and now intends to annex Greenland and "restore order" in Cuba and Mexico. There was no macroeconomic background on Monday.
On the 5-minute TF on Monday, a buy trading signal was formed, which remains relevant on Tuesday. The price broke through the 1.3437–1.3446 area during the European trading session, allowing novice traders to open long positions. The target of the move is the area 1.3529–1.3543. However, we would like to remind you that market volatility remains fairly low, except on days when extraordinary news arrives. Like yesterday.
On the hourly TF, the GBP/USD pair settled below the trendline, but there is no clear downtrend at the moment. Rather, another flat. There are no global grounds for medium-term dollar strength, so we expect movement only to the north. Overall, we also expect the resumption of the 2025 global uptrend, which could bring the pair to the 1.4000 mark within the next couple of months.
On Tuesday, novice traders can consider new short positions targeting the area 1.3319–1.3331 if the price settles below the area 1.3437–1.3446. A close above the area 1.3437–1.3446 on Monday keeps long positions relevant with a target of 1.3529–1.3543.
On the 5-minute TF, you can now trade at the levels 1.3043, 1.3096–1.3107, 1.3203–1.3212, 1.3259–1.3267, 1.3319–1.3331, 1.3437–1.3446, 1.3529–1.3543, 1.3574–1.3590, 1.3643–1.3652, 1.3682, 1.3763. No important data or events are scheduled in the UK for Tuesday, but the US will publish the December inflation report, which could have a strong impact on the January Fed meeting and the decision on the key rate.
Support and resistance price levels — levels that serve as targets when opening buys or sells. Take Profit can be placed near them.
Red lines — channels or trendlines that reflect the current tendency and show which direction is preferable to trade now.
MACD indicator (14,22,3) — histogram and signal line — an auxiliary indicator that can also be used as a source of signals.
Important speeches and reports (always listed in the news calendar) can strongly affect a currency pair's movement. Therefore, during their release, trading should be done with maximum caution, or positions should be closed, to avoid a sharp price reversal against the preceding move.
