This time last week Thursday recorded weekly high of 1.2995 being 200 pips week range then. Price crashed from that high of 1.2995 to a low of 1.2760 the next day... This week so far has seen a crash of 200 pips so far and this month hasn't bought more than 5 pips from the open of 1.2836. can there be a total trend reversal today like it happened last week? if it does, then 1.2900 may occur... Wonder what BOE is cooking, I feel they are cooking something out of the extra ordinary for today and tomorrow.
I agree. I think we will see another 50bps coming up. We'll see..
But what Support did the price hit? I want to see at least 1.263 before price starts to reverse.

I think if this 15M candle closes around this level I may consider entering a long targeting R1 (~12780). Whilst keeping my short open. Reasons for trade, near weekly S2, near daily S1, possibly liquidity grab from yesterdays low and bullish reaction from it. Also yen pairs looking like we may be looking at turning downwards longer term. EJ cant break the highs, looks like a liq grab on daily UJ.
Cancel that, gonna enter a long two mins before the news just as a hedge. Will keep short open.

I agree, I'm looking at 0.5 increase.

Expecting 25bps hike but a hawkish press conference.

Hi, might be, but the money is still on +0.25% only. Outside chance of +0.5% though.

Someone said that market priced in 40% probability of 50bps rate hike here on this forum, can't remember who. That means, if BoE raises by 25bps Pound should tank.

With the various US news releases on the heels of the BOE rate announcement, I believe that the actual rate change will simply get caught in the wash.

Yes i agree US the news driving the market rn, causing all "good" support to not supporting price, but this Rate announcement is really crucial, in terms of where the UK terminal rate will be?

1.2625 for a bounce up.
If that fails, 1.2492.
Not interested in any other levels in between.

...interestingly some commentators I have seen saying it's 1st time in history a Uk Chancellor saying recession was a price worth paying to tame inflation re Hunt's recent comments/interviews. they have short memories, Norman Lamont said it in 1992/93, the famous 'green shoots of recovery/Je ne regret rien' comments of his....and look what happened to him - Major (then pm) sacked him in favour of ken Clarke. Of course he had presided over Black Wednesday when Uk £ crashed out the ERM (forerunner to the €, courtesy of George Soros et al.) That may have been a factor too, lol!

Re rate rise, Boe Mpc isn't known for dynamic moves so +0.25% is the favourite, but as Fardeen1209 pointed out above, it's an important one (amongst important ones,) for the reason he gave, and because uk households are already feeling the pinch re mortgage rises and inflation double whammy!

The bulls are getting the same battering as the bears did last month. From near 132 to 12650 could we be near the exhaustion? Less than an hour but if BoE are cooking something I can’t see a move above 128 just yet

Tommorows NFP should cover this Daily candle in my opinion and reach S at 1.2575.

Hello Guys,
well today is BOE Decision but it could be tricky 0.25 bps is expected now insted of 0.5
still NFP could make it tricky last time i mentioned 1.25 is POssible well it was close but this week Avoid the market it could suck in both Buyers and Sellers,
and honestly i dont see Pound going much lower then 1.25 it could test that but BOE may not make much difference, it will be NFP which will make the Medium Term Trend.
