Forecast for GBP/USD – April 8, 2025

On Monday, the British pound showed another day of weakness, falling by 180 pips. As a result, the target level of 1.2714 was reached, and an ascending price channel was formed on the daily chart. This channel now increases the significance of the 1.3311 target level, where its upper boundary intersects, creating a magnetic point.

There are seven trading sessions until the magnetic point, which, considering weekends, leads us to April 17. This is the day the European Central Bank's monetary policy decision is made. The following day is a public holiday—Catholic Good Friday. We are preparing for a potential market reversal. This plan would be invalidated if the price drops below the 1.2616 level. At the moment, the MACD line lies just beneath that level.

On the four-hour chart, only the Marlin oscillator indicates a potential growth reversal. For a confirmed reversal, the price needs to consolidate within the 1.2816/47 range. A breakout above the MACD line near 1.2896 would serve as further confirmation.
