    Consolidation Phase and Market Trends

    The FXStreet Insights Team selects important market observations from various experts, along with insights from both internal and external analysts. They note some financial trends, such as the EUR/USD staying low ahead of German inflation data and the USD/CHF rising as Swiss data falls short. Readers should do their own research, as this information is for general purposes and not investment advice.

    Economic Indicators and Trading Opportunities

    We predict the Pound will rise towards the 1.3300 level against the US dollar in the next few weeks. The recent upswing has paused, leading to a consolidation phase where the currency is likely to move sideways between 1.3220 and 1.3270. This calm period is seen as a good setup for the next upward move. This optimistic view on the Pound is backed by recent UK economic data, which has been surprisingly strong. The latest inflation report for October 2025 showed consumer prices increasing by 3.1%, slightly above expectations, putting pressure on the Bank of England to keep its firm stance. This is in contrast to signs of a slowing US economy, where weekly jobless claims have recently risen to 235,000. For derivative traders, this presents an opportunity to prepare for a gradual upward movement. Call options with strike prices near 1.3300, expiring in the next three to four weeks, could be worth considering. A key level to keep an eye on is the strong support at 1.3180; if prices drop below this, it would challenge our positive outlook. This price action is similar to what we observed in late 2023. During that time, the GBP/USD pair also entered a consolidation range for over a week before eventually moving higher. This past pattern boosts our belief that the current sideways movement is just a temporary hold, not a sign of a reversal. Create your live VT Markets account and start trading now.
