Hello everyone!

The GBP/USD is experiencing a significant increase and is currently undergoing trend corrections, indicating a clear short-term decline on the 1-hour chart. At the time of writing, the price is trading at 1.228, down 0.05% for the day.

The short-term technical outlook for this currency pair shows a downward trend. In the absence of significant data, risk awareness may impact the actions of the GBP/USD in the second half of the day.

The US futures stock index has declined by approximately 0.3% today, reflecting the cautious stance of the market. In the event that safe-haven flows dominate after the opening bell on Wall Street, the USD may continue to strengthen, forcing the GBP/USD to retreat.
