GBP/USD Forecast: Bulls try to keep Pound Sterling above key support

GBP/USD seems to have stabilized at around 1.2500 early Tuesday after having stage a deep downward correction on Monday. The pair's near-term technical outlook fails to provide a directional clue but buyers could remain interested in Pound Sterling as long as 1.2480 support holds.

Following a quiet European session on Monday, the US Dollar (USD) gathered strength against its rivals as the US Treasury bond yields started to push higher ahead of this week's highly-anticipated Federal Reserve policy meeting. With the benchmark 10-year US T-bond yield rising more than 4% and reclaiming 3.5%, the US Dollar Index advanced to the 102.00 area. Read more ...

GBP/USD trades with modest losses below 1.2500 mark, downside potential seems limited

The GBP/USD pair turns lower for the second successive day on Tuesday and weakens further below the 1.2500 psychological mark during the first half of the European session.

The US Dollar (USD) attracts some dip-buying and stands tall near a two-week high touched on Monday, which, in turn, is seen as a key factor exerting downward pressure on the GBP/USD pair. Expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will hike interest rates by 25 bps at the end of the two-day FOMC policy meeting on Wednesday led to the overnight rise in the US Treasury bond yields. Apart from this, a softer risk tone - amid looming recession risks - lends additional support to the safe-haven Greenback. Read more ...

EUR/USD remains offered below 1.1600, seems vulnerable near multi-month low

The EUR/USD pair struggles to capitalize on the overnight bounce from the 1.1530 region, or the lowest level since November 2025, and lower for the third consecutive day on Wednesday. Spot prices slide back below the 1.1600 mark during the Asian session and seem vulnerable to slide further.

GBP/USD slips below key averages as geopolitical risks mount

GBP/USD fell about 0.35% on Tuesday, settling around 1.3350 after slipping below the 200-day Exponential Moving Average for the first time since early December. The pair has pulled back sharply from its late-January high near 1.3870, shedding over 500 pips in a series of lower highs and lower lows.

Gold bounces back toward $5.200 amid sustained safe-haven flows

Gold bounces back toward $5,200 in Wednesday's Asian session, moving away from an over one-week low. Sustained safe-haven flows, amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, act as a tailwind for the bullion. However, a bullish US Dollar and reduced bets for more aggressive easing by the US Fed might keep a lid on the non-yielding yellow metal ahead of the US ADP report and ISM Services PMI data due later in the day.
