February, 2010 Data:

The 12 month forecast for the British Pound is in the table at the top of this
page. We are forecasting that the exchange rate for the British Pound will be
roughly 0.65 British Pounds to the USD. The table shows a HDTFA of 0.06
which suggests that the March, 2011 currency exchange rate could easily fall
between 0.71 and 0.58 GBP/USD. Links to Forecasts for fourteen other
currencies may be found on the left side of this page.

The British Pound exchange rate for February, 2010 averaged 0.64 GBP to
USD. That's 2.1 basis points higher than the January, 2010 rate of 0.62, and
5.3 basis points lower than the February, 2009 rate of 0.69.  The rise in the
GBP/USD exchange rate from January to February provides evidence that the
short term trend in GBP/USD is up. In other words, a strengthening of the US
Dollar against the British Pound in the short term. If that trend continues, we
should see an average daily rate in March, 2010 that is close to 0.66.

The average British Pound conversion rate over the last 12 months was 0.63.
The average rate over the last 10 years was 0.60.  A Higher British Pounds to
US Dollars exchange rate over the last 12 months compared to the average
rates over the last 10 years serve as an indicator that the long term trend in
GBP/USD is up (strengthening US Dollar against the British Pound).

The highest currency rate for GBP/USD over the last 12 months was 0.71. The
lowest was 0.60. The market high was attained in March, 2009. The low was
achieved in November, 2009.

Our historical research covers British Pound data back to February, 1972. The
average exchange value during that period of history was 0.58 GBP/USD. The
highest rate was 0.91. The lowest was 0.38.  The high was attained in
February, of 1985. The market low was achieved in March of 1972. Recent
rates experienced in February of 2010 are similar to the historical 0.58 average.

USD. That's 0.3 basis points higher than the December, 2009 rate of 0.62, and
7.3 basis points lower than the January, 2009 rate of 0.69.  The minor

to 0.62.

GBP/USD exchange rate from November to December provides evidence that
the short term trend in GBP/USD is up. In other words, a strengthening of the
US Dollar against the British Pound in the short term. If that trend continues, we
should see an average daily rate in January, 2010 that is close to 0.63.

The British Pound exchange rate for November, 2009 averaged 0.60 GBP to
USD. That's 1.4 basis points lower than the October, 2009 rate of 0.62, and 5.0
basis points lower than the November, 2008 rate of 0.65.  The fall in the
GBP/USD exchange rate from October to November provides evidence that the

Dollar against the British Pound in the short term. If that trend continues, we
should see an average daily rate in December, 2009 that is close to 0.59.
