GBPUSD near bottom? GU at strong support, maybe one more dip

3 276
GU is at a very strong support zone.
Even though it broke below the psychologial 1.25000, there is much fib support here.

Of course, if PM May loses power, GU will take a strong dip.
BUT, that may actually be GOOD for the Pound going forward, if the market imagines a more capable PM.

I expect some bounce right now, maybe just a dead cat.
If this support breaks, I think it can only a little lower before recovering.

Background:
I am a Dollar Bull and Pound Bear, and will remain so until BOE starts talking about rate hikes or PM May starts presenting a positive and plausible Brexit scenario.

My GU adventure started with a search for top of uptrend around Sept 20th
GBPUSD short Idea: GU topping? zones to watch


Then came the big drop, which I caught most of. I started looking for bounces to short
GBPUSD looking for a bounce to Short more: GU move not done yet?


Next I was looking for 1.2700 as a bottom which was hit and bounced hard
GBPUSD in trouble: GU seeking 1.27000 ?


After taking some longs on the bounce, I was looking for shorts again:
GBPUSD short entry zones: GU coming up on Resistance (1h chart)


Rode it down to 1.283xx and then good Brexit news made it bull, which I caught one leg of
GBPUSD long scalp for the Brave: GU to fill gap?


Since then it has been all downhill for course. Now I am looking for a bounce at strong suport to short again
GBPUSD near bottom? GU at strong support, maybe one more dip

Note
Some news brought a bounce snapshot notice the relevance of the FIB zone, not the round figure of 1.2500 that formed the support.
Note
Bounce turned out quite strong snapshot PM May won the no-confidence vote, but imo it was a not a good showing. Her margin of victory was not impressive, with almost 40% of her OWN party voting her down. I have closed longs for now, will observe over the next day or so.
