Historical data suggests GBPUSD has certain seasonal tendencies within it's calendar year, April being the best in terms of its strength and August being the weakest.
Current economic situations and amidst these SVB collapse, rising inflation and expected recession suggests difficult days ahead for DXY. When we look at the DXY it loosing strength which also suggests GBPUSD has the potential to grow in April. As per analysis suggests
Looking at last 20 years data, 85% of the time April had green monthly closings with last ten years average returns in April were 0.42%. Mostly this rally starts from second half of march and if we look at the current price action, we have many bullish signs which suggest this rally has already begun. Break out from the falling wedge, higher highs and higher lows, ABCD pattern (if it breaks 1.22040). Using the confluence of wedge breakout and ABCD pattern, our projection for first profit level is 1.2400 in coming week.
