The central bank also lowered its economic growth forecasts.<\/p>\n<p>The Bank Of England Base Rate news today caused the British Pound (GBP) to sell off, and this news impacted forex traders. The GBP\/NZD sold off, due to some NZD (New Zealand Dollar) strength in the market. The GBP\/NZD is hitting session lows at 2.2950, the overall sell off was nearly 400 pips, which is a very strong intraday selloff. The GBP also dropped\u00a0against the USD, and this pair is down to session lows of 1.5120. You can see the strong selloff on the GBP\/USD on the chart below.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5732\" style=\"width: 422px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forexearlywarning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/bank-of-england-base-rate.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5732\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5732\" src=\"https:\/\/www.forexearlywarning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/bank-of-england-base-rate.jpg\" alt=\"Bank Of England Base Rate\" width=\"412\" height=\"179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.forexearlywarning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/bank-of-england-base-rate.jpg 412w, https:\/\/www.forexearlywarning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/bank-of-england-base-rate-300x130.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 412px) 100vw, 412px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5732\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bank Of England Base Rate<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Traders could have profited nicely after today&#8217;s news.

This pairs sold off but it is not trending down on the larger time frames. The GBP\/USD also sold off,\u00a0but this pair is still ranging up and down, so we would scale out lots or exit completely on any short term\/intraday trades.
