GBPUSD Double Top rejection but Support cluster below.The GBPUSD pair is pulling back significantly after a Double Top rejection at 1.2455. The first Support offered is within the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) and the bottom of the Channel Up is has been trading on since October. If that holds, we'll take it as a short-term buy back to the 1.2455 Double Top Resistance. A closing above should further extend the rally to the 1.2675 May 27 High. However a break below the Channel Up, will be a sell break-out signal, targeting the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) with the best long-term buy beyond that level being on the 1.1845 Support. In both cases, we will only buy any further if the June 01 2021 Lower Highs - 1W MA200 (red trend-line) Resistance Cluster breaks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

GBP/USD faces rejection near 1.2400 - Double Top ?GBP/USD has lost its bullish vigor after Wednesday's recovery toward 1.2400. Prior to the Bank of England's (BOE) policy announcements, investors refrain from placing bets on future Pound Sterling strength, and the near-term technical outlook indicates a lack of buyer demand. The gains in GBP/USD remain modest, especially when compared to EUR/USD, notwithstanding the intense selling pressure surrounding the US Dollar late on Wednesday. The decision to hike the policy rate by 25 basis points was made, and FOMC Chairman Jerome Powell maintained that more rate rises will be appropriate. However, his admission of the disinflation in goods led to a decline in the US dollar. Powell also acknowledged that a quicker-than-anticipated decrease in inflation will be reflected in upcoming policy choices, which raises the prospect of a policy change later in the year. The BOE is anticipated to increase its policy rate by 50 basis points to 4% from 3.5% on Thursday. Tenreyro and Dhingra, two BOE Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) members, voted in December to maintain rates at 3%.

GBPUSD can move higher? 🦐GBP/USD currency pair on the 4-hour timeframe see the formation of higher highs and higher lows, followed by a distribution pattern at the recent high. This could indicate that the uptrend is still intact and that the market is undergoing a period of consolidation before potentially continuing its upward movement. It appears that the pair is currently trading within a range between the recent highs and the 0.618 Fibonacci level, which is considered a key support level. The presence of daily support also suggests that there is a potential for the price to hold at these levels and continue to trade within the established range. Technical analysis suggests that traders watch for a break above the recent highs according to Plancton's strategy to confirm the continuation of the bullish trend.

GBP/USD trades in a range above 1.2300 as the Fed nearsIn early Europe, the GBP/USD is finding it difficult to move significantly higher than 1.2300. The pair is still supported as the US Dollar licks its wounds, US Treasury yields decline, and traders exercise caution before the Fed announces its policy decisions. US PMIs will also be monitored. The markets appear to be confident that the US central bank would moderate its aggressive approach and announce a lower 25 bps rate hike on Wednesday at the conclusion of a two-day meeting. This impacts on the USD and keeps US Treasury bond yields low. Trading participants appear hesitant to make big bearish wagers on the USD/JPY pair as the significant central bank event risk approaches. In addition, remarks made by BoJ Governor Kuroda Haruhiko, who stated that the bank must maintain its loose monetary policy and 2% inflation objective, limit the JPY's upward potential. This calls for more care before positioning for any appreciable significant fall, at least initially.

RLinda ! GBPUSD-> Breaking through trend support. What to expectGBPUSD is entering an uptrend correction phase. The price breaks the uptrend pattern - a reason for buyers to get nervous On the chart the key element at the moment is the sideways range of 1.2435 - 1.2290. Earlier the price tested the support and it managed to bounce from the level and head up to the previously broken boundary. A possible retest of the uptrend channel support may confirm the beginning of the correction. If the price consolidates under the uptrend line, the potential for fall to 1.22889 and further to 1.2175 will open. I suppose that now the price can grow to the border of the channel for confirmation of the trend break, if that happens, we should expect fall to the strong support of 1.22889 Regards R. Linda!

GBP/USD:Possible Double Top on Daily ChartThe price is now testing the previous higher high with a possible double top and the pair may move to the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level meeting old support. A break here opens the risk of a strong drop as we progress through the week. However, there is important data on the calendar from the US economy and investors may be sitting on their hands until then. Looking forward, the UK Producer Price Index (PPI) details for January may entertain GBP/USD traders ahead of Thursday’s key US Q4 GDP and the next week’s Fed meeting.

GBP/USD drops toward 1.2300 on disappointing UK Services PMIGBP/USD drops toward 1.2300 on disappointing UK Services PMI After December’s impressive services PMI print, markets hoped for another encouraging print for January given a slightly improved outlook now that inflation appears to be headed in the right direction. This wasn’t to be the case as the new year brought with it a sustained downturn in the UK private sector business activity. Survey respondents pointed to higher interest rates and lower consumer confidence as key determinants of the lower activity as Britain grapples with the ongoing cost of living crisis. The services sector experienced the worst decline in business activity over the last two years up to this point. The report adds to the recent, disappointing UK retail sales data which plummeted over the holiday period as consumers tightened their belts. One small piece of good news came in the form of the manufacturing data, which beat expectations coming in at 46.7 vs 45.5 expected. However, this wasn’t enough to appease the FX market as the sterling traded around 50 pips lower after the release. The Bank of England will meet next week to discuss another 50 basis point hike to stem demand and help inflation move down further. Fresh in their minds will be the fastest pace of average earnings since 2001 which raises alarm bells of a wage-price spiral – something central bankers look to avoid at all costs
