Technical Analysis Idea GBP/USD - 04/02/2016The British Pound retains a strong upward tone after of the BOE's economic policy statement, trading a handful of pips above the fresh 4-week high posted last Wednesday, and pressuring the 50% retracement of the latest daily decline between 1.5239 and 1.4078.
Carney says the Bank of England expects real incomes in the UK to grow solidly this year, after several lean years.
And business investment should also continue to grow strongly.
Retracements are now seen as buying opportunities, with short term supports at 1.4605 and 1.4560 ahead of the critical one at 1.4530. This last should keep the downside contained in order to maintain the bullish potential.

Bullish and Bearish potential setups on CableI have highlighted daily support areas which are confluent with Fibonacci levels. I lean towards the Bearish side, however I would not discount the Bullish targets on screen, especially with announcements from the US today.
The bullish or bearish move will depend largely on price action and candlestick confirmation for me.
Another reason for leaning to the bearish side is trend-continuation. Here the overall Bear trend is in full force and I tend to lean towards trading with the trend as much as possible.
This is an example of some very effective yet basic technical analysis which is tested and proven to work time and time again.
Please leave any comments should you wish to do so.
Happy trading and I hope you all have a great weekend!

GBPUSD Potential Bullish Cypher patternHere we got a potential Cypher pattern to enter the new bullish sentiment on the 4hr timeframe on a retrace to the 0.786 fib. We are looking for the RSI to reach over sold zone as well for confluence. But be careful its NFP tomorrow so watch your trade carefully if you get an entry before the news!
Comments good or bad are very welcome.
Kind regards

GBPUSD 4 HOUR SHORT LOTS OF UNCERTAINTY WITH GBP BECAUSE OF THE ELECTION WHICH IS CAUSING THE POUND TO DEPRECIATE. PRICE BROKE OUT OF THE RANGE LAST WEEK AND IT IS NOW LOOKING TO RETEST THE RANGE LEVEL (SUPPORT TURNED RESISTANCE). THIS IS A TEXTBOOK TREND CONTINUATION PATTERN (BREAK,RETEST,CONTINUATION) IF PRICE MANHES TO RETRACE BACK UP TO MY SELL ZONE I ALSO HAVE 2 FIB CONFLUENCES WHICH ARE THE 38.2 AND 50 FIB LEVEL. TARGET BACK DOWN AT SWING LOW WHICH IS ALSO A PSYCHOLOGICAL LEVEL.(1.46000) ALSO PRICE SEEMS TO BE APPROACHING A DYNAMIC RESISTANCE (20SMA)
Cable looks very bullish for now.After today's session, GBPUSD advanced rapidly and it is only few pips away from the open. This indicated plenty buying in the market. I would expect this pair to advance further and form consolidation pattern.
Long term downtrend must be assumed and short positions would be recommended from higher levels.
POTENTIAL BUTTERFLY PATTERN ON GBPUSD 4H CHART In my trading course (which I would highly recommend) we were talking about advanced patterns today, so I went out on the chart and tried to find and recognize some.
My first butterfly patterns I discovered on the GBPUSD hourly and 4 hr chart. I drew it in on the 4h chart because it's just less messy.
What we have here is a butterfly pattern where the 1.272 fib extension of the X to A leg, the 1.618 extension of the inverted A-B leg and the potential second leg of the harmonic move (C-D) all line up at the previous structure low (which also happens to be a nice round number)
It might of course be a coincidence, but I am keeping my eye on this for an opportunity to go long around this level.
