InvestMate|GBP/USD Worth the risk?💷💵💷💵GBP/USD Worth the risk? 💷💵That's how I recently predicted the first downward impulse on GBP/USD: 💷💵This time it is time for an update and to broaden my perspective on this pair. 💷💵Begin with the fact that since 25 September the Pound on all pairs has shown strength and a massive wave of strengthening of this currency has started since the breakout of new lows. 💷💵We've had a couple of major corrections along the way, but looking at this indecision from investors about the direction we would take and the lack of willingness to buy. I am inclined to think there is a good chance of seeing a clear downward correction at the current point. 💷💵The place where it could end has been marked by a support zone that I have determined based on a cluster of two levels. The first level is the 0.5 fibo level of the entire upward wave that started after the largest downward correction in the current uptrend. The second is the 1:1 level of the largest downward correction in the current upward wave that started on 25 September. 💷💵I have also determined a resistance zone based on the space between the 0.5 and 0.618 levels of the largest upward wave from the peak. 💷💵The scenario I'm playing out is the start of the next wave of weakness in the pound against the dollar, taking into account smaller corrections along the way which, in the perspective of the next weeks, will end at the support zone marked on the chart. 💷💵*Please do not suggest the path I have drawn with the lines this is only a hypothetical scenario. 🚀If you appreciate my work and effort put into this post I encourage you to leave a like and give a follow on my profile.🚀

InvestMate|EUR/GBP Prepare for pound strengthening 💶💷💶💷EURR/GBP Prepare for pound strengthening . 💶💷In the current post we will again look at the situation on the EUR/GBP pair which I have described in previous posts: 💶💷This time I wanted to update some levels. 💶💷As we can see the EUR/GBP behaved exactly as I described in the previous post. 💶💷We broke through a strong support zone which we currently treat as resistance. It results from two measurements. The first is the level 0.618 of the entire upward wave and the second is the level 0.5 of the last upward impulse. 💶💷The support zone has also been updated with a new level of 0.786 which with the outer level of 1.272 of the entire last upward correction forms a cluster. As can be seen, price has also reacted at these levels in the past. I therefore consider it to be relevant. 💶💷The scenario that I have been playing out for almost weeks now is a gradual weakening of the euro against the pound with the aim of falling to the support zone and waiting there for a possible upward correction of the new downtrend. 💶💷*Please do not suggest the path I have drawn with the lines this is only a hypothetical scenario for further increases. 🚀If you appreciate my work and effort put into this post I encourage you to leave a like and give a follow on my profile.🚀

What Now With GBPUSD ?- Key points: 1- The fall statement came in the context of weak economic growth, high inflation rates and high interest rates. The Office of the Balance Sheet projected that the UK would be in recession from the third quarter which would last for just over a year until the third quarter of 2023, with GDP falling 2.1% during that time. 2- Retail sales volumes are estimated to have increased 0.6% in October 2022 after a 1.5% decline in September (revised from a 1.4% decline) which was affected by the additional state funeral bank holiday. 3- On November 3, the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) announced that it had raised interest rates for the eighth consecutive meeting. Rates were raised 0.75 percentage points to 3.0%, the largest increase since "Black Wednesday" in 1992. - Technical Analysis: Diving into the technical part, we can see that there's a bearish structure starting from level 1.18700 approx. on the daily timeframe. In addition to that, considering 50&200 MA's starting from 1 hour timeframe is taking a downtrend path, which means things will take time on the daily until things payoff a bit and go bearish. Now speaking of oscillators, even from the daily and down they're all taking the downtrend path. Same with MACD, starting from 4H, and getting to the peak on daily before breaking down. Now channels, donchian, supertrend; were kind of reaching the peak on the daily while as on smaller ones they already broke down. Now, as a nutshell, all these meetings the EoB and the UK did during the last week, due to their importance and the reports they gave in which everyone was waiting for to know what's next, was very necessary to the currency as well for traders to know what path the GBP will take for the next days or even weeks. Now for those who are asking what's the next checkpoint if it went bearish? Well, on smaller timeframes, like the 1H and 2H, there is a major orderblock on a level of 1.17670 approx. In which the price would go for a reversal, or break down more. And to do so, economical events must play it's major role. It depends on interest rates and inflation, as well as the CPI, stuff like these...

InvestMate|EUR/GBP Didn't I say so?💶💷💶💷EUR/GBP Didn't I say so? 💶💷As I wrote in my last post about the coming dips, as usual I was not wrong, this time it was time for an update. Link to the post below: 💶💷We will start with the fact that we broke through an important support zone and reached the 0.618 level from where I expect a retest of last resistance, the current support. 💶💷The new strong support zone I determined based on the measurement of the external fibo: 1.272 and levels where price has found resistance in the past. 💶💷 I expect a continuation of the downtrend which can only gain strength in the coming months. 💶💷💷The scenario I am playing out is a continuation of the southward direction, not excluding a test of the current resistance zone. 💶💷For fundamental data justifying the declines, I refer again to the previous post. 💶💷*Please do not suggest the path I have drawn with the lines this is only a hypothetical scenario for further increases. 🚀If you appreciate my work and effort put into this post I encourage you to leave a like and give a follow on my profile.🚀

InvestMate|EUR/GBP Continued declines💶💷💶💷EUR/GBP Continued declines. 💶💷This time it's time for the EUR/GBP pair. 💶💷Over a while has passed since my last post on this one. Enough time for the sellers to attack again. 💶💷That's just like my bearish attitude. 💶💷I will briefly outline the fundamental situation of both currencies. 💶Beginning with the Euro: 💶Looking at economic growth in the Eurozone we are at levels of 2.1% This is quite average looking at the past. 💶 Unemployment in the Eurozone is falling the latest readings on 3 November showed us falling to levels of 6.6% compared to last year's reading of 6.7%. 💶 Ahead of us next week, on 17 November to be exact, are the readings on inflation, which stood at 10.7% on 31 October. The market is betting on inflation slowing down. In the coming months. Which may reduce the push for the next interest rate hike. 💶 Eurozone interest rates were raised by 75 basis points at the last counci meeting on 27 October to levels of 2%. 💷Now what is the situation in the UK: 💷 UK economic growth also slows is currently 2.4%. 💷We will find out about unemployment tomorrow 15 November. We are currently at 3.5%. The market is not entirely convinced whether we will maintain this level or increase. tradingeconomics.com 💷Inflation continues to rise we have 10.1% so far but the market expects a further rise, which may prompt the monetary policy council to remain mostly hawkish. 💷 Rates were raised to 3% on 3 November and so far there is no sign of us slowing down in the near future. 💷I would also like to add that a few weeks ago the Central Bank of England announced unlimited asset purchases which may influence the strengthening of the pound. 💶💷We see that the situation supports the upside scenario on the pound. 💶💷Transforming to the chart I will outline all the tools used in turn: 💶💷1 I have plotted a downward channel from peak to low. As we can see the price was in this channel for a long period of time and then the breakout occurred. 💶💷2. I determined the upward channel of the current upward correction. From which we broke out to the bottom and have now returned to the edge again. 💶💷2 I then measured the wave from peak to bottom using the fibo. 💶💷3. I determined the fibo wave from bottom to top to find future support zones. 💶💷4. I measured using the fibo grid the last downward wave of the current upward impulse. 💶💷4. I measured the largest downward wave in the downtrend and set a correction level of 1:1 💶💷5 I determined 3 support lines. (1). Around the 0.618 level of the wave of the current uptrend. (2). The zone at the last low plus is the 0.618 level of the largest downward wave. (3). The cluster of the 1.618 level of the current upward impulse plus the 1:1 level of the largest downward wave. 💶💷6. I have determined 2 resistance zones. (1). Based on the 0.236 level of the current uptrend, we can see that this has also been a vulnerable area in the past. (2). Based on the 0.382 level of the entire downward wave, also the price has respected this price level in the past. Currently, this resistance represents the top of the current impulse. 💶💷The scenario I am playing out is a gradual continuation of the weakening of the euro against the pound with minor corrections along the way. We are currently at an intervening price point. 💶💷*Please do not suggest the path I have drawn with the lines this is only a hypothetical scenario for further increases. 🚀If you appreciate my work and effort put into this post I encourage you to leave a like and give a follow on my profile.🚀

EURGBP Short following UK CPIfrom Caxton Daily Market View GBP- High UK CPI Data Causes GBP Rally Figures for UK YoY CPI released early this morning showed inflation increasing at a higher rate than the 10.7% markets had expected. In the aftermath of the news GBP snapped a four day rally against USD, likely as the market begins to cool after last weeks extended bull run. The figures put BoE Governor Bailey under heavy pressure to hike the rate by another 75bps in December. However, Bailey has recently voiced his concerns about the decline in the UK housing market and weak GDP growth. His speech at 13:30 today will hopefully clarify what the BoE plans to do in response to the figures. from ING GBP: BoE speakers in focus Bank of England speakers will be in focus today after the release of the October CPI data. This is expected to be peaking around the 11%year-on-year level around now. BoE Governor Andrew Bailey and colleagues testify to the Treasury Select Committee at 1515CET today. We suspect the message will be very much the same as that given at the policy meeting earlier this month - i.e. do not expect 75bp hikes to become common and that the market pricing of the tightening cycle is too aggressive. GBP/USD briefly peaked over 1.20 yesterday. We think 1.20 is a good level to hedge GBP receivables. Equally, we have a slight preference for EUR/GBP staying over 0.8700. Tomorrow is the big event risk of the autumn budget - which on paper should be sterling negative. So all eyes are on the UK and GBP when the Bank of England governor speaks from now on. As if they weren't already. The GBP has declined every time the BoE has raised rates. CPI y/y came in above expectations at 11.1% v's 10.7% Core CPI y/y stays at 6.5% PPI Input m/m is down to 0.6% from 0.9% Double-digit inflation will not make the BoE MPC pivot from their current monetary policy

GBP/USD analysis: BoE hikes needed to curb gilts' term premiumFinally unveiled, the UK government's Autumn Budget was conservative and cautious, in line with market expectations. A fiscal consolidation of £55 billion has been announced, to be split evenly between more taxes and lower spending. From the next year until 2028, windfall taxes on oil and gas companies will increase from 25% to 35%, while the Energy Price Guarantee programme (EPS) has been revised to cut down on government spending. These two measures dominate the UK's fiscal adjustment. But now that the threat of losing the anchor of fiscal credibility has ended, sterling investors are once again confronted with the reality of the UK economic outlook. Inflation is expected to average 7.4% in 2023, but GDP will shrink 1.4% due to the recession. A higher and more persistent inflation rate requires the Bank of England to maintain its restrictive stance for a longer period of time. Furthermore, the longer inflation stays high, the more difficult it will be for gilts to lure buyers to these negative real yields, especially since the BoE will restart quantitative tightening in late November. GBP/USD has risen from 1.036 to 1.203 following the reversal of September's mini-budget, primarily due to lower gilt yields, as recovered market confidence in fiscal policy has stimulated demand for UK sovereign bonds. Gilt yields likely bottomed out before the UK Autumn Budget, as the market had largely anticipated the fiscal consolidation, and could now resume a natural upward repricing, not in a disorderly fashion, but adequately to reflect a high inflation/high interest rate environment. The outlook for the pound is now dependent on the Bank of England's policies. Hawkish BoE = Neutral/bullish scenario for the pound If the BoE turns out to be more hawkish than expected – markets are currently pricing in 60bps in December and terminal rate of 4.5% next year – it can better control inflationary expectations and pressures. In this scenario, UK interest rates will increase quicker than UK 10-year gilt yields, limiting the term premium and enhancing policy credibility. This is a favourable scenario for the pound, as it can restrict the downside and discourage speculators from shorting a currency with a high yield. Dovish BoE = Bearish scenario for the pound In contrast, if the BoE delivers fewer rate hikes than the market currently predicts, inflation expectations will not be restrained and long-term gilt yields would rise faster than UK interest rates, effectively placing downside pressure on the pound.

UK 11% inflation and supply chain shock is starting to fadeUK inflation goes to 11% a 41-year high, goods prices continue to increase. BOE says supply chain shock is starting to fade, however, with this inflation rate, the next couple hours the EURGBP will certainly go long. Chart: We have a support that was not tested after the dates of UK. But we can see the RSI in a oversold zone and after changing the direction the MACD is going up. The MA of BB has already been tested with some candles shadows, but none of them crossed it.
