Trade Like A Sniper - Episode 12 - GBPAUD - (1st June 2024)This video is part of a video series where I backtest a specific asset using the TradingView Replay function, and perform a top-down analysis in order to frame ONE high-probability setup. I choose a random point of time to replay, and begin to work my way down the timeframes. Trading like a sniper is not about entries with no drawdown. It is about careful planning, discipline, and taking your shot at the right time in the best of conditions. A couple of things to note: - I cannot see news events. - I cannot change timeframes without affecting my bias due to higher-timeframe candles revealing its entire range. - I cannot go to a very low timeframe due to the limit in amount of replayed candlesticks In this session I will be analyzing GBPAUD, starting from the 12-Month chart. - R2F

Decoding Forex Mysteries: USDCHF & EURGBP Reaction to Rate HikesWelcome to the intriguing world of Forex, where currencies act at their own rhythm, sometimes defying expectations and confounding even the most experienced traders. In this article, we are going to unravel the “mysteries” surrounding the reactions of USDCHF and EURGBP to recent interest rate hikes. We will dive into the realms of market anticipation, monetary policy statements, and the significance of staying ahead in this dynamic landscape. 1. The Resilience of USDCHF As the Swiss National Bank (SNB) raises interest rates from 1.5% to 1.75%, market observers brace for the anticipated downward movement of the USDCHF. However, contrary to expectations, the currency pair displays remarkable resilience. Let's explore the underlying factors: a) Priced-in Expectations: The forex market is renowned for its ability to assimilate information in advance. It is likely that market participants had already factored in the interest rate hike, blunting the immediate impact on USDCHF. Such anticipatory behavior highlights the importance of staying attuned to prevailing sentiment and analyzing market positioning. b) Comparative Interest Rates: Understanding the relative interest rates of different currencies is paramount. If the rate hike in Switzerland was aligned with or lower than market expectations, and other major currencies offered more attractive rates, investors might have favored those currencies, mitigating the downward pressure on USDCHF. c) Monetary Policy Statement Outlook: Monetary policy statements accompanying interest rate decisions provide crucial insights into central banks' future intentions (you can usually watch them live on YouTube 30 minutes after the data release or on Bloomberg type of channels). Since the SNB's statement revealed a cautious and neutral stance, it has tempered the impact of the rate hike on USDCHF. Market participants pay close attention to forward guidance, as it shapes expectations regarding future policy actions and influences currency movements. 2. The Curious Behavior of EURGBP Let us now turn our attention to EURGBP, which failed to sustain a short sentiment following the Bank of England's interest rate hike from 4.5% to 5.00% (versus the expected 4.75%) and left a nasty week. To understand this curious behavior, we delve into the following factors: a) Market Expectations: The forex market is often driven by expectations and anticipatory positioning. If traders had already priced in the interest rate hike, the actual announcement might not have triggered a significant market reaction. Therefore, the lack of sustained short sentiment in EURGBP could be attributed to market participants adjusting their positions in advance. The GBP was up already by 4% within the last month against major currencies, so a big chunk of market was already longing EG for the expected short term recovery (guilty, but we also made a 2.9% profit closure on this). b) Monetary Policy Outlook: Beyond interest rate changes, central banks' monetary policy outlooks play a vital role in shaping currency dynamics. The accompanying statement from the Bank of England, which shed light on their future plans, indicated a more gradual approach to tightening or expressed concerns about economic conditions. Such cues influence market sentiment and limit the downward pressure on EURGBP. In case of UK, this is already not a good look with their inflation rates :/ Now, you may ask: “Investroy, what do we do if fundamentals don’t exhibit the expected economical impact?” Don’t worry, we got you! A Prerequisite for Success In the ever-evolving forex market, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. To navigate the intricacies and maximize opportunities, traders must adopt a proactive approach: a) Monitor Central Bank Communications: Understanding central banks' intentions requires careful analysis of their policy statements, speeches, and press conferences. These sources provide valuable clues about future policy decisions and can guide trading strategies. b) Assess Economic Indicators: Keep a keen eye on economic indicators that impact currency valuations, such as GDP, inflation, and employment data. These indicators provide a foundation for understanding a country's economic health and can influence currency movements. c) Stay Informed of Geopolitical Developments: Geopolitical events, such as trade disputes or political instability, can significantly impact forex markets. Being aware of these developments and their potential consequences on currency movements is crucial for staying ahead. d) Analyze Market Sentiment: Sentiment analysis, gauging the collective psychology of market participants, can offer valuable insights. Monitoring market sentiment through various indicators, such as positioning data and sentiment surveys, helps identify potential shifts and align trading strategies accordingly. e) Embrace Technological Tools: Utilize advanced trading platforms and tools that provide real-time data, customizable charts, and algorithmic trading capabilities. These resources empower traders to analyze market trends, spot patterns, and execute trades swiftly. Bonus) this one is a little subjective, but markets are very cyclic, if something is oversold, but everybody is expecting further bearish move, be sure there is a retracement coming before that happens 😊 Stay safe and enjoy your day!

Target reached! GBPUSD ReviewPrice bounced off the 1.2683 support we identified and rose nicely to our take profit target at the 1.2832 level. In this review, we touch on why we used the 1.2832 level and not the swing high at 1.2850 - a lot of this is down to trade management and take profit placement.

GBP VS JMDPound dropped 23% against JMD in 7 months. A stronger dollar for little third world country is not good overall. This will attract less exports as it is more expensive for foreign countries to buy products or exports from the country. In addition, tourism, which the country's biggest contributor to its GDP. Apparently tourism earns over 50% if the country's total foreign exchange earnings and provide about one forth of all jobs in Jamaica. Investment from people living overseas will also take hit as inflation and devaluation of their currency against the JMD will defer planned investments. Could be some hard time ahead. At the same time the USD continues to gain strength against all currencies. This is the reserve currency at the moment so Jamaica need USD to trade.

All about the GBPUSDGBPUSD is one of the most popular and widely traded trading instruments on the Forex market. Due to its high liquidity and high volatility, it provides opportunities for daily or intraday trading. In this article we will look at GBPUSD and give valuable tips for successful trades. Currency Overview The British pound is the main currency pair representing the currencies of the two largest economies in the world. The quoted currency is the US dollar, and the base currency is the British pound. Interesting fact: Many currency traders refer to the GBPUSD pair as a "cable". Currencies are seriously affected by economic reports such as GDP, employment reports, inflation, etc. Nevertheless, the activity of the central bank is one of the most important factors of currency volatility and price direction. This applies both to decisions made by the Bank of England and to the units of the Federal Reserve System responsible for interest rate decisions. From a historical point of view, the GBP/USD pair has been trading since the early 1970s, when both the United Kingdom and the United States switched to floating exchange rates. The best time to trade The average daily volatility of the cable is large enough to take advantage of short-term price trends. In addition, the currency pair is very stable and suitable for technical and fundamental traders. The best time to trade GBP/USD is when the sessions in London and New York overlap. At this time, the maximum trading volume is observed. The spread during this period will be the narrowest, which means the least slippage in trading. The window for trading between the London and New York sessions is between 8:00 and 12:00 Eastern time. The second best time for trading is the opening time of the London session, that is, the interval from 3:00 to 4:00 Eastern time. Most European markets are trading at this time, so this pair has a large trading volume. Five economic data affecting the exchange rate: First of all, these are reports on the GDP of the United Kingdom and the United States. Usually, the initial estimates of GDP have the greatest impact on the price of currency pairs, because they are published earlier, giving traders a preliminary assessment of the economic state of the country. The second type of reporting is related to monetary policy. In particular, reports and decisions on interest rates published by the Bank of England and the US Federal Reserve System. Trade balance indicators. As a rule, the trade balance shows how much capital enters the country and how much is withdrawn from it. As a rule, an increase in the trade surplus is considered a sign of a healthy economy, while a trade deficit is considered not such a favorable event. GBP/USD traders should pay close attention to the unemployment rate in the US and Britain. Essentially, the unemployment rate measures the percentage of the total workforce that is unemployed but currently looking for work. Obviously, the higher the unemployment rate, the greater the harm to the entire economy. Inflation indicators. This includes the consumer price index and the producer price index. The consumer price index measures the inflation of a basket of goods and is considered an inflation index at the consumer level. The PPA measures inflation at the producer or wholesale price level. Both inflation indicators provide important information about potential long-term price trends. However, the producer price index is considered a leading indicator and therefore may be more useful for predicting the next price trend. Correlation GBPUSD can often move simultaneously with other major currencies, especially the Eurodollar pair, and can often depend on other major currencies in the opposite direction. The correlation can exist in different time frames, including four hours, eight hours, or the whole day. Moreover, these correlations are dynamic and can change over time. Trading Strategy The strategy is called the Big Ben strategy. In fact, this is a strategy for breaking the opening range of a currency pair. The logic of the strategy lies in the change in the volume of volatility, which tries to restore the initial price movement after the Japanese session. In particular, the trading volume of GBP/USD decreases significantly after the end of the New York session, and then during the Asian session. Therefore, most large institutional traders will not trade before the start of the European session. This usually leads to market fluctuations within the range of the GBP/USD currency pair during the night period. Therefore, when the currency pair begins to increase trading volume at the beginning of the European session, it is possible to trade on breaking the opening range. Given that interbank sellers create a range on both sides of the market during the opening period, a potential exit from the range usually leads to a trend phase at the beginning of the trading session. Rules for a long entry using a Big Ben set with five-minute candles: Plot the range of high and low prices between the Frankfurt Open Championship and the London Open Championship. This is defined as the opening range. The price action during this period should be limited to a range of Enter the breakout and close above the range extension level by 38%. The stop loss should be set in the middle of the opening range. The take profit will be equal to twice the length of the opening range measured from the breakout point. Rules for short entry using a Big Ben set with five-minute candles. Plot the high and low price range between the opening in Frankfurt and the opening in London. This is defined as the opening range. The price action during this period should appear to be limited by a range Enter the breakout and close below the range extension level by 38%. The stop loss should be set in the middle of the opening range. The take profit will be equal to twice the length of the opening range measured from the breakout point. resume Now you know what news you need to follow in order to trade GBPUSD profitably. In addition, you know the best time to trade and even the trading strategy. GBPUSD is a very volatile pair, with proper trading it can bring you a quick profit. But do not forget about the risks. Stick to the strategy! Good luck! Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩‍💻

What is a Cup and Handle Pattern? GBP/USD Real ExampleGood morning, traders! Today we will make an educational post about a specific behavior in the market in certain circumstances, and we wanted to take advantage of the situation in GBP/USD that is currently happening. The pattern we are talking about is the CUP AND HANDLE PATTERN . This pattern is widely used in stocks or indices since they are trend instruments by their essence, and it serves to catch a potential rise in price after a correction. The premise for this pattern to be valid is that the asset is in a CLEAR trend, either bullish or bearish, and has initiated a corrective process. A cup and handle is a technical chart pattern that resembles a cup and handle where the cup is in the shape of a "u," and the handle has a slight downward drift. There are three key things to consider when forming these patterns: 🔸Length: Generally, cups with longer and more "U" shaped bottoms provide a stronger signal (this case). Avoid cups with sharp "V" bottoms. 🔸Depth: Ideally, the cup should not be overly deep. Avoid overly deep handles, as handles should form in the top half of the cup pattern. 🔸Volume: Volume should decrease as prices decline and remain lower than average in the bowl base; it should then increase when the stock begins to make its move higher, back up to test the previous high. 🔸In addition, it is also an important factor that the handle is a clear corrective pattern and has some point of support or support. In this situation, we see that in the daily chart, the price is touching the uptrend line, and also in the published chart, we see how it is also testing the broken zone of the range. The current reversal point is solid.

Trend Continuation Patterns with Real-Time ExamplesGood morning, Traders! Today we will make an educational post about the most used corrective patterns. There are numerous patterns, even more complex, such as Elliott counts where each internal wave of corrections is explored, but the reality is that it is not 100% necessary to apply it in the market. The idea of ​​this information is to provide a simplified, useful and applicable overview. For this, we will explain the corrective patterns and then we will show real-time examples that are being presented in the market at the moment or that have happened recently. The examples will be in high temporalities so that the charts are valid for a few days/weeks. One concept that encompasses all the corrective patterns that we are going to talk about is that they are all trend continuation patterns. That is to say, it is a correction that is formed and then continues to the previous trend. That said, in all cases, it is necessary that prior to the pattern, there is an impulse in that direction, that is, if we see a triangle, for it to have an upward resolution it is necessary that the previous trend be upward. While there are some cases where the patterns can go in both directions depending on the context, we won't get into them. Keep in mind that we ALWAYS have to analyze the context of the pattern correctly. For example, if we see a bullish continuation pattern forming near a major resistance or trend line that could interrupt the price movement, it is clearly not the place to put your money. You should always look for the correct pattern + the appropriate scenario for the trade, where the risk-benefit ratio that we obtain is appropriate. 🔸Pennant Pattern: is a type of continuation pattern formed when there is a large movement in a security, known as the flagpole, followed by a consolidation period with converging trend lines—the pennant—followed by a breakout movement in the same direction as the initial large movement, which represents the second half of the flagpole. 🔸Ascending Triangle: it is created by price moves that allow a horizontal line to be drawn along the swing highs and a rising trendline to be drawn along the swing lows. The two lines form a triangle. Traders often watch for breakouts from triangle patterns. 🔸Flag Pattern: when price moves counter to the prevailing price trend observed in a longer time frame on a price chart. It is named because of the way it reminds the viewer of a flag on a flagpole. The flag pattern is used to identify the possible continuation of a previous trend from a point at which price has drifted against that same trend. Should the trend resume, the price increase could be rapid, making trade timing advantageous by noticing the flag pattern. 🔸Descending Wedge: The wedge pattern is a continuation pattern formed when the price bounces between two downward slopings, converging trendlines. It is considered a bullish chart formation but can indicate both reversal and continuation patterns – depending on where it appears in the trend. 🔸Rectangle: is when the price reaches the same horizontal support and resistance levels multiple times. The price is confined to moving between the two horizontal levels, creating a rectangle. Real-Time examples: AUD/USD Descending Wedge: EUR/GBP Rectangle: EUR/NZD Rectangle: GBP/USD Flag: NZD/USD Flag: USD/JPY Flag:

📚 The Beauty of Combining Technical & Fundamental Analysis 📚What is Fundamental Analysis? Fundamental analysis is a way of looking at the forex market by analysing economic, social, and political forces that may affect currency prices. The idea behind this type of analysis is that if a country's current or future economic outlook is good, its currency should strengthen (Baby Pips - www.babypips.com) What is Technical Analysis? Technical analysis is the study of historical price action in order to identify patterns and determine probabilities of future movements in the market through the use of technical studies, indicators, and other analysis tools (Forex.com www.forex.com) Technical analysts look for similar patterns that have formed in the past and will form trade ideas believing that price could possibly act the same way that it did before. From the chart above, you can see how key fundamental news created incredible volatility in the market but the underlying technical analysis was still intact. From this, we can gather that although fundamental analysis is important, technical analysis is just as important.

📚 Learn More 💰 Earn More with us: Range-Bound Market📚 LEARN MORE 💰 EARN MORE With ForecastCity What is a Range-Bound Market? A range-bound market is one in which price bounces between a specific high price and a low price. The high price acts as a major resistance level in which price can’t seem to breakthrough. Likewise, the low price acts as a major support level in which price can’t seem to break as well. The market movement could be classified as horizontal, ranging , or sideways. A range-bound market is the opposite of a trending market. In a range-bound market, there is no clear direction. How to trade Range-Bound Market? 1- Trading Major Support and Resistance: Traders capitalize on range-bound trading by repeatedly buying at the major support level and selling at the major resistance level until the security breaks out from a price channel. The idea is that the price is more likely to rebound from these levels than break through them, which puts the risk-to-reward ratio in their favor, although it's important to always watch for a potential breakout . Technical indicators, such as the relative strength index (RSI), can be used to confirm overbought and oversold conditions when price oscillates within a trading range. For example , a trader could enter a long position when the price is trading at major support and the RSI gives an oversold reading below 30. Alternatively, the trader may decide to open a short position when the RSI moves into overbought territory above 70. Most traders place stop-loss points just below the major support level and above the major resistance level to mitigate the risk of heavy losses from a high volume breakout. 2- Trading Breakouts: Traders can enter in the direction of a breakout from a trading range. To confirm the move is valid, traders should use other indicators, such as volume and price action . For instance, there should be a significant increase in volume on the initial breakout , as well as several closes outside the trading range. Instead of chasing the price, traders may want to wait for a retracement before entering a trade. For example , a buy limit order could be placed just above the top of the trading range, which now acts as a support level. A stop-loss order could sit at the opposite side of the trading range to protect against a failed breakout. ❤️ If you find this helpful and want more FREE forecasts in TradingView . . . . .

📚💰Descending Triangle in GBPNZD "Learn More Earn More" With US📚 LEARN MORE 💰 EARN MORE With ForecastCity Descending Triangle Definition: An Descending Triangle is a type of triangle chart pattern that occurs when there is a support level and a slope of lower high . It is defined by two lines: .A horizontal support line running through valleys. .A Downtrend line drawn through the peaks. The lower highs indicate more sellers are gradually entering the market and selling pressure increases as price consolidates moving further towards the apex. An Descending Triangle is classified as a continuation chart pattern . If price can break through the support level, that level will now act as a resistance level. Breakouts can also happen in both directions. Statistically, downward breakouts are more likely to occur, but upward ones seem to be more reliable. In most cases, the sellers will win this battle and the price will break out past the support. But Sometimes the support level is too strong, and there is simply not enough selling power to push it through. Therefore you should be ready for movement in EITHER direction . ENTRY: We would set an entry order bellow the support line and above the slope of the lower highs. TARGET: Target is approximately the same distance as the height of the triangle formation. ❤️ If you find this helpful and want more FREE forecasts in TradingView . . . . .

A system for speculationThere are seven ways to improve the art of speculation. Latest cheatsheet: 1. 🔎 Find your price driver - build a macro argument based on probabilities How good is the quality of the price driver? If I look at the BOE and ECB, how wide is the divergence? We are looking for chalk and cheese, opposites attract. 2. 🖐 Execution is important - most get stopped out where they should enter The key to great execution is being able to assess market participation and price action. 3. 🛠 Start small and leverage winners - from one brick build a house Reverse engineer the retail blow ups! Start with a core unit, when it starts to pay, and the drivers are working, you can add some more. Treat it like a business! 4. ❓ Has anything changed - reassess trades everyday at the roll Don't think about the chart here, focus on the macro drivers. Are negative rates still in play for BOE? or have they changed their view on No-deal countermeasures? 5. ⛓ Remain nimble - do not get married to a position If we don't like what we see, if BOE turns hawkish, then we can just take the position off. Understand where is enough and admit where you are done. 6. 💫 Stay in the moment - perception matters more than reality If you can understand and outguess how perception will change, then you will be very profitable. Where's the sweet spot? How is the market positioned? 7. 😬 A life and death showdown - everyday is high noon in the markets Market participants are profoundly into the game. So much so that everything else in life seems unimportant. Threadneedle Street becomes the world as your opponent will keep trying to outmanoeuvre.

GBPJPY H4 testing /1000%+ gain data for 1000+ trades since 2007 Hi All Pleased share some back testing results on the H4 timeframe across some xxxjpy pairs, mainly GBPJPY. By testing H4 we have access to more data in time, so this video shows testing from 2007 with over 1000+ trades , so a substantial back test in my opinion. Entry is clear - we just follow the entry on screen Exit is clear - 3 exit options - Stop Loss (all of our SL's are dynamic and based from ATR - so we take into account volatility on every trade - you can still risk the same amount!) - TP3 target based on 1:8 Risk to Reward or lastly, close and enter on a reverse signal if this happens before the other 2 possible outcomes.
