GBP/USD Weekly Special Report based on 1.00 Lot Calculation:
EVENTS USA:
- WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11 AT 13:30 GMT: U.S. NONFARM PAYROLLS (NFP) AND UNEMPLOYMENT RATE (JANUARY): Weaker-than-expected job growth or a rise in the unemployment rate would reinforce expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts. A softer labor market could weigh on the U.S. dollar and support further upside in GBP/USD.
- FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13 AT 13:30 GMT: US INFLATION DATA (CPI) (JANUARY): A lower-than-expected inflation reading would reinforce expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts. With U.S. headline CPI currently at 2.7%, down from recent highs near 3%, further easing in price pressures could weigh on the dollar and support continued upside in GBP/USD.
- FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20 AT 13:30 GMT: US GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT (GDP) (Q4): A softer-than-expected Q4 GDP reading would raise expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts as growth momentum slows. Weaker U.S. growth may pressure the dollar and support further upside in GBP/USD.
EVENTS UNITED KINGDOM:
- THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 12 AT 7:00 GMT: UK GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT (GDP) (Q4). A stronger-than-expected Q4 growth reading would reinforce confidence in the UK economic outlook. Signs of improving momentum could support the pound and push GBP/USD higher.
- TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 17 AT 7:00 GMT: UK UNEMPLOYMENT RATE (DECEMBER). A stable or lower unemployment rate would point to resilience in the UK labor market. Strong employment conditions could support the pound and add upward momentum to GBP/USD.
- WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18 AT 7:00 GMT: UK INFLATION (CPI) (JANUARY). A stronger inflation reading would ease pressure on the Bank of England to cut rates quickly, so a higher-than-expected CPI could lift the pound and support an uptrend in GBP/USD.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS:
- CURRENT UPTREND (SINCE JANUARY 2026): The black trend line, describing the uptrend, is depicted on the chart below. The GBP/USD currency pair has tested levels around 1.33 in January, and since then, it has been moving above this uptrend line. However, there remains a risk of a potential breakout below this level if market conditions change.
- 20-, 50-, AND 100-DAILY MOVING AVERAGE POINT TO UPTREND: GBP/USD currency pair has recently traded above the 20-, 50-, and 100-Daily Moving Average, pointing to an ongoing uptrend. However, this trend can also change if prices fall below the 20-, 50-, and 100-Daily Moving Average.
- SUPPORT AREA: 1.3420 – 1.3520. This zone represents its next support area for GBP/USD currency pair.
