29.02.202409:36 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Analysis and trading tips for GBP/USD on February 29

Analysis of transactions and tips for trading GBP/USD

The test of 1.2640 took place at a time when the MACD line moved downward from zero. However, after several unsuccessful attempts to decline, a reversal occurred in the pair, largely due to the weak GDP data for the US.

Ahead lies data on the M4 money supply aggregate, number of approved applications for mortgage loans, and volume of net lending to individuals in the UK. Strong statistics will help pound continue the upward momentum, while weak lending figures will have a negative impact on the pair.

For long positions:

Buy when pound hits 1.2671 (green line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.2705 (thicker green line on the chart). Growth will occur after strong lending statistics.

When buying, ensure that the MACD line lies above zero or just starts to rise from it. Pound can also be bought after two consecutive price tests of 1.2650, but the MACD line should be in the oversold area as only by that will the market reverse to 1.2671 and 1.2705.

For short positions:

Sell when pound reaches 1.2650 (red line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.2619. Pressure will persist after an unsuccessful attempt to break through the local high and weak data from the UK.

When selling, ensure that the MACD line lies below zero or drops down from it. Pound can also be sold after two consecutive price tests of 1.2671, but the MACD line should be in the overbought area as only by that will the market reverse to 1.2650 and 1.2615.

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.
