GBPUSD H4 Chart Bullish Momentum Outlook

RSI and Bollinger Bands in GBPUSD H4 Chart Analysis

The GBP/USD currency pair, commonly known as “Cable,” represents the exchange rate between the British pound and the US dollar. This pair is widely traded in the forex market due to the economic strength of both countries. Today’s GBP USD fundamental analysis hinges on key economic data from both the UK and the US, with particular attention to the Confederation of British Industry’s (CBI) Distributive Trades Survey for the UK and multiple reports from the US, including a speech by Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook and the release of key personal consumption and trade data.
Fundamentally, GBPUSD could see volatility driven by these news events. Positive UK CBI data may boost the pound if sales volumes are better than forecasted, signaling consumer strength in the British economy. In contrast, the US dollar could strengthen if Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook gives hawkish signals about future monetary policy, or if consumer spending and trade data exceed expectations. Traders will focus on both countries’ economic health, where strong US data could continue to support the dollar, while any weakness may allow the pound to rise against it, especially if UK retail figures outperform.
