GBPUSD | Perspective for the new week | Follow-up

The Greenback's biggest gains in the last week have been against the Pound sterling after the BoE's dovish hint that it may have finished raising interest rates after a 50 basis points hike last Thursday. However, the higher-than-expected non-farm payroll data of 517,000 jobs in January did not help matters as the Pound slumped further to close the week below the 1.21000 level hereby recording a 2.7% decline in value. This video illustrates a detailed technical perspective on what to expect from the current market structure in the new week.
