12.02.202414:02 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Analysis and trading tips for GBP/USD on February 12 (US session)

Analysis of transactions and trading tips on GBP/USD

Further growth became limited because the test of 1.2641 took place at a time when the MACD line rose sharply from zero.

The macroeconomic calendar remains empty, but statements of Fed representatives may exert pressure on the pair. Talks of further actions against inflation will strengthen dollar demand, leading to the decline of GBP/USD.

For long positions:

Buy when pound hits 1.2628 (green line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.2660 (thicker green line on the chart). Growth will not occur, so look for purchases as low as possible around daily and weekly lows.

When buying, ensure that the MACD line lies above zero or rises from it. Pound can also be bought after two consecutive price tests of 1.2605, but the MACD line should be in the oversold area, as only by that will the market reverse to 1.2628 and 1.2660.

For short positions:

Sell when pound reaches 1.2605 (red line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.2573. Pressure will increase in the case of firm position of Fed representatives.

When selling, make sure that the MACD line lies below zero or drops down from it. Pound can also be sold after two consecutive price tests of 1.2628, but the MACD line should be in the overbought area as only by that will the market reverse to 1.2605 and 1.2573.

MACD line- it is important to be guided by overbought and oversold areas when entering the market

Important: Novice traders 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 fluctuations in the rate. If you decide to trade during the release of news, 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.

And remember that for successful trading, you need to have a clear trading plan. Spontaneous trading decision based on the current market situation is an inherently losing strategy for an intraday trader.
