How to Trade GBP/USD on March 7th? Simple Tips and Trade Analysis for Beginners

Thursday's deal analysis:

1H chart of the GBP/USD pair.

The GBP/USD pair also came to a halt on Thursday. There were no fundamental or macroeconomic reasons for the British pound or the US dollar to rise or fall, as the economic background was weak, and fundamental factors were absent. Additionally, Donald Trump took a day off, refraining from introducing new tariffs. As a result, the market took a well-deserved break.

Overall, the uptrend on the hourly time frame remains intact. It should have ended a week ago, but Trump's actions completely disrupted the technical outlook. The market spent three consecutive days aggressively selling the US dollar. If today's macroeconomic statistics from the US turn out weak, the dollar may continue its decline. However, as we have mentioned before, there is little logic in the current price movements, so it would not be surprising if the data disappoints, yet the dollar starts rising instead.

5-Minute Chart of GBP/USD

On the 5-minute chart, several trading signals were formed near 1.2913, but the price traded sideways throughout the day. In both cases, beginner traders could have opened short positions, but the nearest target level was never reached. Still, these signals allowed for some small profit opportunities.

Trading Strategy for Friday

In the hourly time frame, GBP/USD may start a short-term downtrend, but Trump is doing everything to prevent this from happening. In the medium term, we still expect a decline towards 1.1800, as we believe this is the most logical scenario. However, the correction on the daily time frame must first be completed, with the price securing itself below the trendline on the hourly chart. It would also help if Trump stopped imposing sanctions on everyone.

On Friday, GBP/USD could continue rising, especially if Donald Trump continues to stir up global uncertainty and dictate his policies. Additionally, several major events today could trigger another sharp dollar sell-off.

On the 5-minute chart, the current trading levels are 1.2164-1.2170, 1.2241-1.2270, 1.2301, 1.2372-1.2387, 1.2445, 1.2502-1.2508, 1.2547, 1.2613, 1.2680-1.2685, 1.2723, 1.2791-1.2798.

There are no significant events scheduled for the UK on Friday. However, in the US, we will have a speech from Jerome Powell, who may comment on Trump's economic measures. Additionally, Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) and unemployment rate data will be published. These three events could trigger a strong market reaction.

Key Rules of the Trading System

  1. The strength of a signal is determined by how quickly it is formed (bounce or breakout of a level). The less time it takes, the stronger the signal.
  2. If two or more false signals appear around the same level, all subsequent signals from that level should be ignored.
  3. In a ranging market (flat), the pair can generate many false signals or none at all. At the first signs of a flat market, it is better to stop trading.
  4. Trades should be opened during the European and early US trading sessions, after which all positions should be closed manually.
  5. On the hourly time frame, it is recommended to trade signals from the MACD indicator only when there is strong volatility and a confirmed trend (determined by a trendline or trend channel).
  6. If two levels are too close (5-20 pips apart), they should be considered as a support or resistance zone rather than individual levels.
  7. Once a trade moves 20 pips in the right direction, a Stop Loss should be moved to breakeven.

Chart Explanations

Support and resistance levels – These are targets for opening buy or sell positions. Take Profit orders can be placed near these levels.

Red lines – Trend channels or trendlines that indicate the current market direction and the preferred direction for trading.

MACD indicator (14,22,3) – Histogram and signal line – a secondary indicator that can also be used for trade signals.

Major news events and speeches (always included in the economic calendar) can heavily influence currency movements. Therefore, during major news releases, trading should be done with extreme caution, or traders should exit the market to avoid sharp price reversals.

Every trade cannot be profitable. Developing a clear trading strategy and applying sound money management are the keys to long-term success in forex trading.
