🔥 Latest Forex Updates
GBP/USD is consolidating in a narrow range around the mid‑1.3500s ahead of this week’s UK CPI and central bank meetings.

The pair holds defensive below 1.3600, with dovish BoE bets capping gains while the Fed is expected to stand pat.

GBP/USD sits near a 40‑month high (~1.3600), boosted by geopolitical risk tone, but lacking momentum to break much higher.

GBP/USD hit ~1.3600 after rebounding from 1.3515 amid renewed Middle East tensions and a weaker US dollar.

Live charts show a mild bullish tilt, awaiting central bank outcomes.

Buy GBPUSD at 1.3530 (recommended entry near 1.3530)

Take Profit at 1.3730 → +200 pips profit target

Stop Loss: 50 pips (around 1.3480)

This trade aligns with the current structure: shallow dip followed by rebound, positioning ahead of central bank catalysts. Momentum above resistance could propel GBP/USD toward 1.3730.
