Uncertainty on GBP/USDGBPUSD:

The Pound-Dollar pair starts the new week on a subdued note and remains within striking distance of the lowest level since mid-May reached on Friday. Spot prices are currently trading around 1.2635, with bears waiting for a sustained break and consolidation below the 100-day simple moving average (SMA) before positioning for a continuation of the recent pullback from the multi-month peak.

The British Pound (GBP) continues to be threatened by last week's pause by the Bank of England (BoE), which raised the stakes for an interest rate cut at its August monetary policy meeting. To add to this, the UK flash PMI indices released on Friday showed that private sector business activity in June grew at its slowest pace since November last year. This, along with some subsequent US Dollar (USD) buying, proved to be another factor weighing on the GBP/USD pair.

Market participants are still considering the possibility of two interest rate cuts by the Fed in 2024 amid signs of easing inflationary pressures in the US. This could curb further dollar strength and limit the GBP/USD pair's decline. Traders may also refrain from aggressive directional bets ahead of the UK general election on July 4 and in the absence of any market-important macroeconomic data released on Monday.

Trading recommendation: Trade in the channel 1.2620-1.2680 on the rebound from the levels.
