Micro GBPUSD Futures (M6B1!), H4 Potential for Bullish RiseType : Bullish Rise Resistance : 1.2287 Pivot: 1.2157 Support : 1.2077 Preferred Case: On the H4, with price moving above the ichimoku indicator and within the ascending channel , we have a bullish bias that price will rise from the pivot at 1.2157 where the pullback support and 50% fibonacci retracement are to the 1st resistance at 1.2287 in line with swing high resistance, 78.6% fibonacci retracement and 61.8% fibonacci projection . Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could break pivot structure and drop to 1st support at 1.2077 where the pullback support, 78.6% fibonacci retracement and 78.6% fibonacci projection are. Fundamentals: The UK's Prelim GDP q/q and GDP m/m are anticipated to show a decline in economic activity. This gives us a bearish view on GBPUSD . We'll need to exercise caution for this setup because our fundamentals and technicals are not completely aligned.

Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could drop to the 1st support at 1.2047, which is in line with 50% fibonacci retracement . Fundamentals: The interest rate in the UK is at 1.25% with the recent rate increases from the BoE failing to have an impact on slowing inflation growth, as the UK CPI stands at 9.1%, a 4-decade high. The BoE is under pressure to take on a more aggressive approach in setting future policy rates. Gov Bailey indicated that the BoE could increase interest rates by 50bps as it attempts to address the issue of persistent inflation .

However, the overall impact of the data was subdued for several reasons, the DXY is under pressure from a strong Euro , and the data was released earlier than scheduled, catching markets by surprise. This gives us a bullish bias for GBPUSD .

Fundamentals: Stocks have been under pressure since the start of the year as investors have dumped stocks amid worries over whether the Federal Reserve will be able to tame inflation without triggering a recession, with spillover effects from the war in Ukraine and the possibility of a slowdown in China from a rise in COVID-19 cases adding to the angst. Due to this, we currently have a bearish bias on the index.
