Cable
GBP/USD Signal - 19 Jul 2021GBPUSD is trending to the downside today to start the week on the backfoot. Last week the USD finished strongest of the major currencies, and we are seeing that continued today. Technically the pair has broken the ascending trendline, and is below the moving average ribbon. We anticipate continued downside.
GBPUSD - To Break LowerGBPUSD H1:
Lots of confluence on GBPUSD here points to a break lower.
Here we have a rejection of the 4 hour descending TL (on the 4 hour chart this also lines up with a rejection of the 100 EMA) The bullish push on the last hour candle I believe is one last run up before price continues its decline. 1.38 is holding as an area of support but if this breaks I believe we will see sub-1.38 prices today.
With 1.39 holding as such strong psychological resistance i am definitely in favour of further bearish movement.
The short position tool added to my chart highlights an excellent R:R of 1:4 with the target being at the 1.37500 mid-psychological level.
let's see how this plays out! Hopefully some USD strength on New York open can provide further momentum to reaching target.
GBPUSD H1 - Long SetupGBPUSD H1
The pair hit a high of 1.3898 yesterday after more hawkish remarks by BOE policymaker, Michael Saunders.
Sellers tried testing waters just below 1.3800 earlier, with the low touching 1.3793 for a brief moment before a turnaround now to a session high of 1.3850.
In the bigger picture, the BOE has been playing it slow with regards to normalising policy but if Saunders' remarks yesterday was a start and if there is some follow through, perhaps the pound can find more reasons to challenge for a move higher.
GBP/USD Signal - GBP Consumer Price Index - 14 Jul 2021GBPUSD has done a break and retest of the resistance trendline prior to the GBP Consumer Price Index data, which measures the change in price across a representative basket of goods and services. Technically the pair has done a break and retest, and is also now at fibonacci support. We anticipate continued upside into the 1.3955 level.
idea on gbpusd for this weekthere can be two ideas currently we are at a trading range so the more probable trade is short for low of the trading range
there a also a lower probability that we are having a break out if so we should buy at the pullback . first target and 2nd one are marked in the picture
GBPUSD Strategy WeeklyA very similar example here in GBPUSD: Sellers surrendering control; buyers are seeking to restrict the flows with a very bullish close above 1.390x.
Both sides are now locked and loaded; Sellers are so compacted from the five months of consolidation (securing a breach of the top of the range is what we are tracking here). After the Daily and Weekly close above 6th July highs, the HH is in, and technical damage should have been done.
Sellers have their blockades up at 1.402x/1.403x which is the next target (a poor entry and risk to reward if you are not already in from last week). I mean taking 1.402x/403x would make it very difficult for sellers to defend and also open an attack to the 1.425x highs. On the other hand, a breakdown of the range from sellers would mark a very aggressive high. Finding the correct side in these flows is of utmost importance.
To recap as quickly as possible....
We are tracking for continuing pressure on the 'early' sellers, another squeeze with a final move back towards the 1.425x highs later in the year, before we see a lot of profit taking and capital flight back to USD in 2022.
WITH BULLS IN CONTROL, CABLE TARGETING ABOVE 1.40000With bulls now in control (temporarily), GBPUSD is likely to rally above 1.40000. First thing first, the pair must have a "good" bullish close above the high at 1.38988, else any rejection here will make the rally to 1.4000 a mirage. Then a decent pullback to re-test 1.38988 will be the catalyst to propel cable above 1.40000 - where sellers are waiting

GBP/USD Signal - GBP Markit Construction PMI - 6 Jul 2021GBPUSD is trending to the upside prior to the GBP Markit Construction PMI data, which shows business conditions in the UK construction sector. Technically the pair has broken the descending trendline, and has turned bullish. We anticipate upside into the 1.38070 level.
GBPUSD at Range Support - Upside from Here?GBPUSD is trading in a range prior to the USD Consumer Price Index data, which shows the change in price across a representative basket of goods and services and is used to measure inflation. Technically the major forex pair is at range support and above the key 1.4100 level. We anticipate upside into the range resistance, and potentially beyond. Our upside target is 1.4220.
Sterling to Find SupportGbpUsd nearly completed a clear WXY corrective cycle and ended wave Y with clear 5 waves, i expect for the coming sessions to find a short term support and bounce to retest previous wave 4.
before any uptrend might happen again. so we will consider the upward move a correction until it proves its an impulsive.
CHFJPY H4 - Short SetupCHFJPY H4
Yet to have broken support, but certainly looking like it wants to with the way this H4 candle is looking likely to close. Lower timeframe selloff and pullbacks seem very sequential so far.
A break and retest of support/resistance could be the next entry point to jump in with short positioning.
GBPUSD - To Revisit June Lows?Lots of confluence pointing toward a decline on GBPUSD here.
Here we see the rejection of the identified resistance area, in line with the downward trendline. Price is holding well under the 200 EMA also. Price action on the last hourly candle also infers a reversal.
I don't really like this pair due to both GBP and USD being two dominant currencies - I find the fundamentals hard to predict! But here I think the technicals line up nicely for a sell off.
Stop loss can be placed above resistance at around 1.39400. I'll set TP at the 1.38000 psychological level. Nice R:R, let's see how it plays out! Let's watch out for 1.38800-600 though as this could be an area of struggle.
