The GBP/USD currency pair continues to trade in different directions. After the pound/dollar pair rose to the upper boundary of the Ichimoku cloud on Tuesday, a downward reversal and a rather strong fall of the British currency followed today. At the moment, the pair is trading even below the Kijun-sen critical line, overcoming which will change the current trend from upward to downward. However, on the whole, the swing continues without a pronounced tendency. If earlier the pound often refused to react to the fundamental and macroeconomic background, so that we even started thinking about the paradoxical situation for the pound, now there is simply no macroeconomic background. No important messages were received from the UK, no economic reports were published in the first three trading days of the week. It's impossible to even say that the pound is currently traded on pure technology, since the "swing" cannot be technically justified only if it is not a pronounced flat. However, there is no flat now. Therefore, we now have a simply completely unpredictable, non-trending, non-phletic movement, which has no fundamental justification. In this situation, each trader decides whether to trade this pair or not.

In the meantime, from time to time, traders are informed about future trade negotiations between London and Brussels. So far, they have no significance, since the negotiations themselves have not yet begun. For example, today the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, announced her readiness to begin negotiations with London. Judge for yourself, dear traders, how important this message is. "Negotiations with Great Britain will begin on March 2. We are ready to build a close relationship with an ambitious partnership with the UK. It's good for people and business," von der Leyen wrote on her Twitter. Information that negotiations will begin in early March has been known for a long time. Moreover, the European Council just the other day adopted a mandate, according to which negotiations will be held with London, Michel Barnier and his group of diplomats. In general, this news is not news at all.

We continue to insist that the British currency ignores the general negative fundamental background. We believe that the pound should form a new downward trend a long time ago, since there are very few prospects for concluding an EU-Britain trade deal. Especially with such a prime minister as Boris Johnson, who decided to negotiate with everyone in the style of Donald Trump, that is, from the standpoint of his own benefit and strength. That's just Britain - not the United States. America has the strongest economy in the world, and the British economy has stalled very much in recent years. Boris Johnson, with his integrity and inability to negotiate, can only finish off the British economy.

From a technical point of view, there is now a correction against the Golden Cross. Thus, a rebound in the price from the Kijun-sen line may trigger a new round of upward movement.

Trading recommendations:

GBP/USD has started a new round of correction against a correction or an upward trend. Thus, selling the British pound with the target of 1.2850 is now recommended no earlier than the return of quotes below the critical line. We recommend that you consider buying the pair with a target of 1.3055 in small lots if the bulls stay above the Kijun-sen line. The fundamental background still does not support the pound.
