Trade wisley
GBPUSD Happy Easter Traders! 4/20 6:33pm. I’m currently holding a sell position on GBP/USD at 1.32480, and despite price climbing to 1.32942, I see several technical and fundamental factors that support my trade idea.
Fundamental Perspective
Looking ahead, this week presents major economic events that could drive volatility in GBP/USD.
UK PMI (April 23): Manufacturing PMI is expected to drop to 44.1, while Services PMI may soften to 51.0—both indicators suggest economic slowdown, potentially putting downward pressure on GBP.
US Durable Goods (April 24): Forecasts show mixed numbers—headline durable goods is projected at +1.8%, but ex-transportation and ex-defense figures are negative, meaning uncertainty surrounding USD demand.
UK Retail Sales (April 25): The monthly figure is expected at -0.3%, signaling weaker consumer spending. This aligns with my sell bias, as deteriorating UK economic conditions could contribute to pound weakness.
If the UK data disappoints while US figures remain mixed or slightly stronger, GBP/USD could face renewed selling pressure, validating my position.
Technical Analysis - Historical & Indicator Confirmation
Looking at the daily chart, there’s strong alignment between price action and indicator readings that suggest a potential reversal:
Resistance Holding at 1.330–1.331:
The Stochastic at 74.88 suggests GBP/USD is nearing overbought conditions.
The Williams %R at -22.24 reinforces the idea that price is pushing into exhaustion territory.
Support Structure (Where Downside Pressure Could Build):
Immediate Support at 1.326–1.327: Previous lows from April 20 confirm this zone as a critical level for sellers.
Secondary Support at 1.321: Multiple recent price reactions suggest this area could serve as a strong downside target.
Deeper Support at 1.316–1.318: If bearish momentum strengthens, this area represents a key swing low.
Additionally, while price is pushing higher in the short term, it’s trading well above long-term daily EMAs, suggesting the rally is a temporary overextension rather than a sustained breakout. If GBP/USD fails to break above 1.330–1.331, momentum could shift in favor of my sell trade.
Trade Management & Outlook
Despite the recent push higher, I remain confident in my sell position as long as GBP/USD does not break and hold above 1.330–1.331. If price starts rejecting this level, the next downside target could be 1.326, followed by 1.321, where I’d consider taking partial profits.
With fundamental catalysts ahead, volatility will likely increase. If bullish momentum persists beyond 1.331, I may need to re-evaluate my position, but until that happens, my trade setup remains valid.
Final Thoughts
My sell at 1.32480 is built on strong reasoning—key fundamental risks, extended technical levels, and a solid structure of resistance all favor a potential reversal. If sellers step in soon, I’ll have the opportunity to secure profits on a well-planned move. Now, it’s a waiting game to see how price reacts to resistance and upcoming data.

GBP/USD upcoming shorts from 1.33600 back down to demandMy focus this week for GU is around a key daily supply zone that price is currently approaching. As we near this level, I expect price to slow down and begin distributing, potentially leading to a deeper retracement. I anticipate the short setup to form around Tuesday, depending on how price reacts.
If price does retrace, I’ll be watching the 2-hour and 17-hour demand zones, where we could see a bullish reaction and a potential rally from those levels. Since GU has been overall bullish, this would be a counter-trend short, followed by a possible continuation to the upside.
Confluences for GBP/USD Shorts:
- Price is overbought, indicating a potential correction to clear liquidity and fill imbalances.
- Plenty of downside liquidity and imbalances that price could target.
- Approaching a strong daily supply zone, which could act as a key reversal point.
- Unmitigated demand zones below, which may need to be tapped before price continues higher.
P.S. If price doesn’t reach the daily supply zone, I’ll remain patient and look for a buy opportunity to ride price up toward that supply level.
Wishing everyone a great trading week ahead!

GBP Holds the Upper Hand Amid Economic RealismThe British economy has taken a bold and proactive stance by acknowledging the reality of a looming recession earlier than most other major economies. While many nations continue to downplay or delay recognition of economic slowdown, the UK’s honest and strategic approach positions the pound for relative strength in the near term.
🇬🇧 Why This Matters for GBPUSD
Proactive Policy Making: By admitting economic challenges early and beginning to address them, the UK has earned credibility in global markets. This forward-thinking strategy often leads to greater investor confidence.
Currency Strength Through Stability: While other currencies are facing late-cycle policy adjustments and ongoing uncertainty, the GBP is likely to benefit from this perception of stability and transparency.
Comparative Resilience: Against a backdrop of monetary hesitation elsewhere, the pound could continue to outperform—especially as traders and institutions reward clarity and decisive leadership.
💡 What Traders Should Watch
If the UK’s measured steps toward economic recovery continue while others stall or scramble, GBPUSD may show strength, particularly in risk-off periods where relative macroeconomic discipline becomes a key asset. Still, always trade with a plan—use structure, confirmation, and adapt quickly if conditions shift.
Remember: being early is sometimes the most underrated form of being right.
GBPUSD | Blue Boxes Mark Solid Support Zones
Following the recent strength in GBP due to the UK’s proactive economic stance, it's crucial to keep an eye on the blue boxes highlighted on the chart. These levels have acted as key support zones during recent price action, and they could continue to offer high-probability opportunities if retested.
🔵 Why These Zones Matter:
Price Memory: These areas have previously been defended by buyers, indicating strong institutional interest. If the market revisits them, it’s very likely we’ll see some kind of reaction.
Strategic Patience: Entering trades around support zones requires confirmation. Look for reversal patterns or LTF bullish signs before committing. These setups are where smart money often steps in.
Risk-Managed Entries: Waiting for price to come to you around these levels can offer great R:R trades while keeping your downside limited.
📌 The Bigger Picture:
Combine this technical structure with the UK’s relatively more realistic economic outlook, and you get a compelling setup. While other currencies may still be adjusting, GBP could remain strong—especially if these support zones continue to hold.
In uncertain macro times, solid support plus good fundamentals can make all the difference. Patience pays off, especially at these critical zones.
📌I keep my charts clean and simple because I believe clarity leads to better decisions.
📌My approach is built on years of experience and a solid track record. I don’t claim to know it all but I’m confident in my ability to spot high-probability setups.

GBPUSD Discretionary Analysis: Bounce at 1.33Hello traders.
On GBPUSD, I'm watching this 1.33 zone closely. It's where I'll be looking for a reaction. It can be a solid bounce spot if it shows signs.
Discretionary Trading: Where Experience Becomes the Edge
Discretionary trading is all about making decisions based on what you see, what you feel, and what you've learned through experience. Unlike systematic strategies that rely on fixed rules or algorithms, discretionary traders use their judgment to read the market in real time. It's a skill that can't be rushed, because it's built on screen time, pattern recognition, and the ability to stay calm under pressure.
There's no shortcut here. You need to see enough market conditions, wins, and losses to build that intuition—the kind that tells you when to pull the trigger or sit on your hands. Charts might look the same, but context changes everything, and that's something only experience can teach you.
At the end of the day, discretionary trading is an art, refined over time, sharpened through mistakes, and driven by instinct. It's not for everyone, but for those who've put in the work, it can be a powerful way to trade.

#GBPUSD: Massive Swing Sell Is In Making 1200+ Pips Worth? **FX:GBPUSD Price Analysis**
GBPUSD price has recently experienced an overbought condition, primarily due to the significant decline of the DXY index. This decline can be attributed to the ongoing trade dispute between China and the United States, which has resulted in a drop in the DXY index to its lowest point in the past eighteen months.
Conversely, the GBP has gained strength due to positive economic indicators indicating robust growth in the United Kingdom. This has made the GBP more attractive to investors.
The FX:GBPUSD price is expected to continue its upward trend and potentially reach the 1.35 level. However, it is also possible for the price to reverse its direction from this point.
**Targets:**
If the trade is activated, three targets have been set for the FX:GBPUSD price. These targets can be adjusted based on your own analysis and trading strategy.
We extend our sincere gratitude for your unwavering support and well wishes.
Best regards,

#GBPUSD: Two Prominent Buying Points! Will Dxy Bounce Back? Due to strong economic data supporting GBP, its price has been bullish throughout the week, especially since DXY plunged. Given ongoing trade tensions, we may see another higher high. This is risky, so please analyse it yourself.

GBPUSD Analysis 4/18 11:13amI've been analyzing GBP/USD closely over the past few days, and here's where I stand. The daily historical data shows an overall uptrend from around 1.278 on April 9 to roughly 1.328 on April 18. Although the price has been climbing, I've noticed that momentum is starting to taper off, which makes me question whether this rally might be overextended.
On the fundamentals side, a series of high-impact events are coming up. For example, recent UK PMI readings have come in slightly weaker—manufacturing at 44.1 and services at 51—while US indicators like PMIs and housing data have shown mixed results, such as an unusually sharp drop in New Home Sales MoM. These data points suggest both the dollar and the pound are facing headwinds, and they add a layer of uncertainty over the near-term direction.
Technically, I've set up a sell trade at 1.32480 with the current price now at 1.32830. My chart tells me that if the market dives further.
Overall, while the short-term setup shows some bullish energy, the divergence with longer-term daily averages and the mixed fundamental data make me cautious. I'll be watching for a pullback toward those support levels that might validate my bearish stance.
That's it for me for today.. unless something unexpected happens ..
Have a great weekend!
BTW im looking for another pair to trade comment below your recommendations and why! Thanks!
