Dear friends,

Currently, the British Pound (GBP) is stuck in a narrow range as investors seem reluctant to establish new positions before the release of the UK's third-quarter Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data, which is scheduled for Friday at 07:00 GMT. The GBP/USD pair is still struggling as the Q3 GDP report will shape the monetary policy outlook for the Bank of England (BoE) in December.

From the 4-hour chart, we can see that the price has broken out of the upward channel, resulting in a significant price increase. At the time of writing, the price is trading around 1.2272, after retreating from 1.2430. Therefore, it is likely that GBP/USD will continue to move lower in the short term during this weekend session.

The weaker general trend on the stock market is considered to be another factor that benefits the green shelter.
