Key Points
- Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said, "Starting in September, a 50bp cut could be the beginning of a series of rate cuts," and argued that the benchmark rate should be lowered to as much as 1.75%.
- U.S. President Donald Trump stated that if no ceasefire agreement is reached with Russian President Vladimir Putin by the 15th, sanctions and tariffs will follow. However, if the summit between the two leaders is successful, a trilateral meeting including Ukraine will be held immediately.
- The Bank of England cut its benchmark interest rate by 25bp from 4.25% to 4.00%, but some hawkish members warned that inflationary pressures remain significant. The Bank also cautioned that inflation could rise to 4% by September, dampening expectations for further rate cuts.

GBPUSD Chart Analysis
The price had retreated to the 1.31500 level but found support there and successfully broke through the 1.34000 level. It is currently trading around 1.36000. With trendline resistance near the current price, maintaining upward momentum may be difficult. Even if the uptrend continues, the 1.38000 level is likely to act as a ceiling. In the short term, further upside remains possible, but from a mid- to long-term perspective, a trend reversal to the downside is expected.
GBPUSD – Trend Continuation Play🚨 GBPUSD – Trend Continuation Play (D1) 🚨
Price broke out of a falling wedge within the main bullish trend and has now retested the 1.3535 key level successfully.
We’re looking for a continuation towards the 1.3826 zone — aligning with the upper trend channel resistance.

GBPUSD Forming Bullish ReversalGBPUSD has just staged a strong bounce off a key daily demand zone near 1.3200, and price structure is now showing a decisive bullish reversal. The pair has climbed back above 1.3550, forming higher highs and higher lows, reflecting renewed momentum. The technical rebound suggests continuation toward the 1.3650–1.3700 zone, particularly if price sustains above the current daily close.
On the fundamentals front, the pound is enjoying tailwinds from a dovish shift in global monetary dynamics. Markets are now pricing in a September Fed rate cut amid softer U.S. inflation prints and growing anticipation for easing in the latter half of the year
Reuters. While the Bank of England delivered a 25-basis-point cut to 4%, classing it as a “hawkish cut,” inflation remains sticky—running at 3.6% in June and expected to hold above target for months to come. This could mean the BoE may pause future cuts, keeping sterling relatively firm. At the same time, rising expectations that U.S. rate cuts won’t come until 2026 gives the pound a near-term advantage.
Technically, the bounce is supported by clean structure and bullish momentum. A daily close above 1.3550 opens the door to test the 1.3650–1.3700 resistance area. Maintaining above 1.3450 would reinforce bullish positioning. With clear support structure below and growing macro alignment, the trade presents a favorable risk-to-reward scenario.
GBPUSD LONGNot really the cleanest chat today. Check comment for multi-timeframe clear picture with 15s chart and MT5 screenshot.
Long today following the weekly demand we discussed yesterday, with 4H demand still holding. 5M demand also held. Dropped to the 15s for entry as usual, right as price tapped into our 5M zone. Entered and exited at 3RR — not more, not less.
GBP/USD Rally Nears Next ResistanceIt's been a fast move so far in August for GBP/USD and there's been contribution to the trend from both sides of the pair, with a USD sell-off as Trump pushes for FOMC rate cuts combined with British Pound strength despite a rate cut at the Bank of England meeting.
GBP/USD remains one of the more attractive major pairs for USD weakness scenarios, in my opinion, and as the Dollar tests a critical spot of support Cable remains situated attractively in the event that USD sellers are able to continue to drive.
In GBP/USD, the next resistance is a little higher from 1.3593-1.3617. A break through that exposes the the 1.3750 level, around where the prior highs had formed, and that then keeps the door open for a continued breakout into fresh highs.
For support - it's the 1.3500 level that stands out and if we do get a moderate bounce in the USD in response to the longer-term support in DXY, then that's the level to watch for bulls to defend in GBP/USD. If looking for that bounce in DXY to extend even more, I think there could be more amenable pastures elsewhere, such as EUR/USD or perhaps even USD/JPY. - js
GU Trade Idea – Risking 1% for Potential 5% Gain 13/8/2025I trade with a fixed 1:5 risk–reward ratio, focusing on setups that offer asymmetric profit potential. My approach emphasizes precise entries, strict risk management, and the patience to let trades reach their full potential.
This method allows me to risk small while aiming for meaningful gains, keeping my results consistent and sustainable over time. Trading, for me, is as much about mindset as it is about method — staying calm, following the plan, and letting probabilities work in my favor.

GBP/USD: Resistance Break Could Trigger Bullish MoveThe market is currently facing resistance level.
Before entering a buy trade, it’s important to wait until the price breaks above resistance. If the resistance is broken, we expect the price to move higher, with the first target at 1.3580.
Once the price also breaks above 1.3580, the bullish momentum could continue, and we might see the price rise further toward the second target at 1.3745.
Summary:
No buy until resistance is broken
First target: 1.3580
Second target: 1.3745 after breaking the first target resistance

GBP/USD – 15M Market OutlookPrice is holding just above the Swing Low after rejecting from the Swing High near 1.3580.
If the Swing Low fails to hold, we could see a move toward the P1D High at 1.3520.
Possible Scenarios:
1️⃣ Bearish Continuation:
Break below Swing Low → push to P1D High (1.3520) as first target.
2️⃣ Bullish Recovery:
Hold Swing Low → attempt to retest Swing High resistance.
Key Levels:
Resistance: Swing High (1.3580)
Support: Swing Low (1.3560), P1D High (1.3520)
📌 Plan: Wait for confirmation around Swing Low before entering — clean break or bounce will decide the next move.
British Pound can little grow and then drop to buyer zoneHello traders, I want share with you my opinion about British Pound. If we look at the chart, we can see how the price started to grow inside an upward channel, where it at once broke the 1.3280 level. In the channel, it rose to the resistance level, which coincided with the seller zone, after which it rebounded and fell to the support line of the channel. Later, GBP rose to the seller zone and dropped, breaking the resistance level and exiting from the upward channel. Then the price entered to wedge and then made an impulse up, breaking the resistance level, and rose to the resistance line of the wedge. After this movement, it turned around and started to decline. Soon, it broke the 1.3580 level one more time and fell more. But later it turned around and rose to the 1.3580 resistance level, which coincided with the resistance line of the wedge. Then it dropped to the support line of the wedge, breaking the support level, but soon it backed up and rose back to the resistance line of the wedge pattern. Now I expect that the British Pound can continue to decline inside the wedge, and reach the buyer zone, breaking the support level. For this case, I set my TP at 1.3245 points, which coincided with the buyer zone. Please share this idea with your friends and click Boost 🚀

GBPUSD Tests Upper Line of the ChannelGBPUSD has reached the upper boundary of its trend channel. Intraday price action may turn negative as the U.S. session approaches, but the broader direction remains upward, supported by the latest strong UK job numbers.
If GBPUSD faces short-term selling pressure from the upper line, any downward move could present a buying opportunity, unless the trend ends prematurely. The next upward wave could target the 1.36 level.
