GBPCAD Approaching Key LevelGBPCAD is approaching the 2022 High made on Jan 6th. Price action around this level should determine the short term direction for us to jump in.
A breakout above this level could give us a nice risk/reward trade to follow the trend and ride it up to the next key level of resistance, an area that seemed to see a magnetic effect followed by reversals a number of times in 2021 (5+ times depending on how you measure this).
Alternatively, the Jan 6th high will be a level a large number of traders will be watching and price is starting to look a little overextended.
This previous high could easily act as resistance and see a nice reversal. Price has been respecting an upward trendline and trading steadily above the 20 SMA/EMA, but price has seen a couple of spikes toward this high followed by quick rejections, and momentum for GBP appears to be weakening, as can be seen in the Currency Meter indicator where average GBP RSI is decreasing.
An aggressive short entry would be a close below the rising trendline. With closes below the SMA/EMA being more conservative short entries.
If price reverses I expect to see a temporary pullback not a full reversal, with expectation of a higher low on the Daily.
Overall I'd be happier to see a reversal and take a short, but I'll be watching price action and will jump into a long if we see a strong push and hold above the previous high with broader strength from GBP and broader weakness from CAD on the Currency Meter.

GBP/CAD Update!From our last analysis price dropped around 100 pips! We then saw a massive spike up which i presume was due news, however, price did not break the high and could have been gathering liquidity before moving down. We are now looking for price to come back up to the level marked where it could make a reversal from and continue creating bearish structures to target the zone marked.
GBP/CAD Short Opportunity!Possibility for a short opportunity in GBP/CAD soon! Price has been steadily working its way back up to the structure high over the past couple weeks and now has shown a rejection. On top of this we can see a very clean trend line which is where a lot of retail traders have been buying from meaning that there is a lot of liquidity underneath that the institutions will want to grab. Therefore once we break structure, i would be looking for a pull back from which to go short on down to the demand area highlighted in blue.
Feel free to leave any comments about the idea!
GBPCAD formed Crab Harmonic PatternGBPCAD Formed Crab Harmonic Pattern which supports the bullish bias targeting 1.7110
stop loss should be placed at 1.6620
Fundamental commentary:
GBP has also lost a key tailwind since the emergence of the Omicron eased expectations for a BoE rate hike this month.
Omicron variant introduced significant uncertainty into global markets, with a BoE rate hike looking increasingly unlikely this year.
Last week, three BoE officials further dampened rate hike bets which increase the sell pressure on the GBP but we expect a short term correction for GBPCAD so try to lock your profit to avoid the main downtrend.
