Forecast for GBP/USD on December 10, 2024
Open trading account Open demo account

On the hourly chart, GBP/USD on Monday returned to the resistance zone of 1.2788–1.2801, rebounded from it, reversed in favor of the U.S. dollar, and dropped back to the support zone of 1.2709–1.2734. Consolidating below this zone could pave the way for further declines toward 1.2611–1.2620 and even signal the end of the "bullish" trend. A rebound from the 1.2709–1.2734 zone would sustain the bullish trend and allow for another return to 1.2788–1.2801.

The wave structure raises no questions. The new upward wave broke the previous peak, while the last completed downward wave did not breach the prior low. This indicates the potential end of the "bearish" trend and the beginning of a "bullish" one. However, I believe the bullish trend may remain weak. Last week, bulls attacked confidently, paying little attention to the information background.

On Monday, there were no significant news releases for the pound or the dollar, and the rest of the week looks quiet as well. The U.S. inflation data for December, set to be released tomorrow, is currently the market's main focus. High inflation (relative to forecasts) could not only drive intraday dollar gains but also spark a new "bearish" trend. Low inflation would suggest that the Federal Reserve may ease monetary policy in December, potentially leading to a decline in the dollar.

However, even in this scenario, I do not expect the dollar to weaken significantly. Currently, traders have more compelling reasons to buy the dollar than to sell it. The U.S. economy is thriving, and Donald Trump's presidency is perceived by many as the beginning of a new era of economic prosperity. Moreover, inflation under Trump could rise, prompting a more hawkish Fed monetary policy. Higher rates would also support the dollar. For now, the pound lacks comparable drivers.

On the 4-hour chart, the pair returned to the 61.8% retracement level at 1.2728 and consolidated above it. This suggests that growth could continue toward the next retracement level at 50.0%, or 1.2861. Conversely, consolidating below 1.2728 would signal the resumption of the "bearish" trend, which is clearly visible on the 4-hour chart.

Commitments of Traders (COT) Report

This image is no longer relevant

Sentiment among "Non-commercial" traders became less bullish over the last reporting week. Long positions held by speculators decreased by 403, while short positions increased by 1,905. Bulls still have the upper hand, but their advantage has been dwindling in recent months. The gap between long and short positions is now just 19,000 (98,000 vs. 79,000).

In my view, the pound remains vulnerable to further declines, and COT reports suggest that bearish positions have been strengthening almost every week. Over the last three months, long contracts have dropped from 160,000 to 98,000, while short contracts have risen from 52,000 to 79,000. I believe professional players will continue to reduce longs or increase shorts over time, as all potential factors supporting pound purchases have already been priced in. Graphical analysis also points to further declines in the pound.

Economic Calendar for the U.S. and UK

On Tuesday, the economic calendar contains no notable entries, meaning the information background will not impact trader sentiment today.

GBP/USD Forecast and Trading Tips

  • Selling: Sales were possible after a rebound from the 1.2788–1.2801 zone on the hourly chart, targeting 1.2709–1.2734. These targets were achieved on both Friday and Monday. New sales are possible if the pair closes below the 1.2709–1.2734 zone, with targets at 1.2611–1.2620.
  • Buying: I would avoid considering long positions at this time, though there is no clear evidence yet that the current "bullish" trend has ended.

Fibonacci Levels:Fibonacci levels are drawn from 1.3000–1.3432 on the hourly chart and from 1.2299–1.3432 on the 4-hour chart.
