Trading News Events: U.K. Manufacturing Production (based on the article)
What’s Expected:
![](https://c.mql5.com/3/95/gbpusd-w1-metaquotes-software-corp__1.png)
Why Is This Event Important:
Beyond the looming U.K. Referendum in June, positive data prints coming out of the region may put increased pressure on the Bank of England (BoE) to normalize monetary policy sooner rather than later as central bank officials see a risk of overshooting the 2% inflation target over the policy horizon.
However, waning demand from home and abroad may drag on business outputs, and an unexpected contraction in industrial & manufacturing production may drag on the British Pound as it gives the BoE greater scope to retain the record-low interest rate for an extended period of time.
How To Trade This Event Risk
Bullish GBP Trade: Industrial & Manufacturing Production Rebounds in March
- Need red, green-minute candle following the report to consider a long British Pound trade.
- If market reaction favors bullish sterling trade, short GBP/USD with two separate position.
- Set stop at the near-by swing low/reasonable distance from entry; look for at least 1:1 risk-to-reward.
- Move stop to entry on remaining position once initial target is hit, set reasonable limit.
Bearish GBP Trade: U.K. Business Outputs Fall Short of Market Forecast- Need red, five-minute candle to favor a short GBP/USD trade.
- Implement same setup as the bullish British Pound trade, just in reverse.

Trading News Events: Bank of England Official Bank Rate (based on the article)What’s Expected:
Why Is This Event Important:
Indeed, Governor Mark Carney may continue to argue that the next move will be to normalize monetary policy, but the central bank may sound increasingly cautious this time around as the U.K. Referendum clouds the economic outlook for the region.
Nevertheless, sticky inflation paired signs of stronger wage growth may spur a dissent within the MPC, and a split vote to retain the current policy may generate a bullish reaction in the British Pound as it puts increased pressure on the BoE to normalize monetary policy sooner rather than later.
How To Trade This Event Risk
Bearish GBP Trade: BoE Trims Growth & Inflation Forecast- Need red, five-minute candle following the GDP report to consider a short sterling trade.
- If market reaction favors bearish British Pound trade, short GBP/USD with two separate position.
- Set stop at the near-by swing high/reasonable distance from entry; look for at least 1:1 risk-to-reward.
- Move stop to entry on remaining position once initial target is hit, set reasonable limit.
Bullish GBP Trade: MPC Adopts More Hawkish Outlook for Monetary Policy- Need green, five-minute candle to favor a long GBP/USD trade.
- Implement same setup as the bearish British Pound trade, just in the opposite direction.

Fundamental Weekly Forecasts for Dollar Index, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, AUD/USD, and GOLD (based on the article)
GBP/USD - "A series of disappointing data prints may further undermine bets for two Fed rate-hikes in 2016 as the central bank remains ‘data-dependent,’ and the fresh batch of central bank rhetoric from Cleveland Fed President Loretta Mester, Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren and Fed Chair Janet Yellen may dampen the appeal of the greenback should the 2016 voting-members adopt a more dovish outlook for monetary policy. With Fed Funds Futures now highlighting a less than 10% probability for a rate-hike at the June meeting, the greenback may continue to trade on a weaker tone next week amid waning expectations for higher borrowing-costs."Daily price is located below 200-day SMA and above 100-day SMA for the ranging bearish market condition. The price is on ranging within the following support/resistance levels:
If the price breaks 1.4724 resistance to above on daily close bar so the reversal of the price movement from the ranging bearish to the primary bullish will be started with 1.4769 as a nearest bullish target.
If the price breaks 1.4385 support level to below on close bar so the primary bearish trend will be continuing with 1.4331 target to re-enter.
If not so the price will be on ranging bearish condition.
H4 price is located near 100 SMA/200 SMA reversal area waiting for ther direction of the trend.
If the price breaks 1.4581 resistance to above on H4 close bar so the primary bullish trend will be resumed for this timeframe.
If the price breaks 1.4398 support level to below on close H4 bar so the primary bearish trend will be continuing with 1.4331 target to re-enter.
If not so the price will be on ranging bearish condition.
