GBPUSD Weekly downtrend opportunity based on 1 Lot Calculation:

  • EVENT: Monday, October 3 at 09:30 GMT+1 – The U.K will report Manufacturing PMI September. The Market could anticipate that Manufacturing PMI might decline due to poor economic conditions in the UK. If the PMI comes in lower than forecast, the pound could be anticipated to weaken on poor economic sentiment.
  • EVENT: Thursday, October 6 at 13:30 GMT+1 – The United States will report Initial Jobless Claims. Initial Jobless claims are useful when gauging the strength on the labor market. The most recent print of 193k was lower than forecast, and caused a strengthening in the US dollar. Should jobless claims print lower again, this may prompt the Federal Reserve to adopt a more aggressive interest rate policy stance, which could result in US dollar strength and a declining GBPUSD.
  • EVENT: Thursday, October 7 at 13:30 GMT+1 – The United States will report Nonfarm Payrolls for September. Nonfarm payrolls are a key indicator of the US labor market, which measures the change in people employed against the previous month. The market is currently forecasting a 290k increase. If the number prints higher than forecast, it indicates a strong labor market and could be a catalyst for US dollar strengthening, as this signals hot economy and the potential need for sharper rate hikes.
