GBP/USD ANALYSISGBP/USD 15M - As you can see price has traded down and into the Demand Zone we have marked out above, this is after price has cleared and absorbed a level of Supply in the market.
This tells me that there is more Demand in the market than there is Supply and price is still showing clear signs of bullish structure with it not breaking any protected lows.
This trade is currently running + 17 pips. (+ 0.77%) 0.77RR
Based on this I have gone ahead and placed a long position with my SL below the zone I have gone ahead and got involved from and my TP is set at a higher timeframe area of Supply where I feel it may shake price once it trades in.
Well done to those of you who jumped in on this trade, if you have any questions with regards to the analysis or the trade itself drop me a message or comment below!

Morning Traders!
Let's await price action to tap into the weekly order block!
From then on, eyes open for 15' breaks of structure. Ensure that key higher low areas and double doubles for potential longs are broken before looking to short a fairly strong looking pound!
We simply await the pull back into s 15' order block that should be created post bearish move we have spoken of above. Upon the turn around in price action, we can be satisfied the bullish trend has exhaust somewhat.
Let's await the setup. No positions on GBPUSD until the above.

GBP/USD: Bearish Divergence Flags Pullback Risk Bearish divergence between RSI (14) and price should have GBP/USD traders alert to the risk of a potential partial reversal of the recent bullish move.
Those contemplating the setup could look to sell around current levels or slightly higher, with a stop placed above the recent high of 1.3207 for protection. Bids may emerge around 1.3140—the high set last Friday—although 1.3045 screens as a more appropriate target, given the amount of price action seen either side of it over extended periods last year. While RSI (14) has diverged from price, MACD continues to generate a bullish momentum signal.
If the rally extends beyond 1.3207, the bearish setup would be invalidated.
Even though price and momentum signals favour upside, signs of stability in U.S. Treasuries and stocks—two markets that likely contributed to last week’s U.S. dollar weakness—may support the greenback in the near term.
Good luck!

GBPUSD - Longs - Fundamental Analysis My trade idea for GBPUSD:
DXY (USD) News:
On 2nd April 2025, US president Donald Trump announced tariffs of 10% on most imports and up to 145% on Chinese goods. This has led to significant market volatility. Investors are increasingly concerned about the U.S.'s economic direction, prompting a shift away from dollar-denominated assets. This sentiment has been exacerbated by fears of a potential recession, as highlighted by JPMorgan Chase's forecast.
Major foreign investors, including those from China and Japan, are reportedly reducing their holdings in U.S. Treasury bonds. This retreat diminishes demand for the dollar, contributing to its depreciation.
Conclusion: We can expect a further decline in DXY price. Possible opportunity to long XXX/USD pairs.
BXY (GBP) News:
The UK economy grew by a faster-than-expected 0.5% in February, official figures showed.
Conclusion: With US placing tariffs globally, we can expect USD weakness over the next 2-3 weeks. GBP holds its ground with strong economic figures from Q1.
My trade position:
Between 14 - 18 Apr, I will be monitoring price action. Looking to buy below 1.32 with the first target being 1.35. 1.29 offers strong support.
GBP/USD Breaking Key Fib Level, Bulls Eye September HighsThe British pound surged through the 78.6% Fib retracement near 1.3149, extending its post-breakout rally with a +0.77% daily gain. Price is now on track to test the September swing high at 1.3440 — the next major resistance zone.
📈 Price has reclaimed both the 50- and 200-day SMAs
📊 MACD is showing bullish momentum above the zero line
📍 RSI sits at 64.98 — bullish, but nearing overbought territory
As long as GBP/USD holds above 1.3149, the path of least resistance remains higher. A clean break above 1.3440 would confirm a major trend reversal and open the door to a broader bullish cycle.

GBP/USD At Interesting Area To Sell , Should We Sell Now ?Here is my Opinion About GBP/USD , I Have an old res and the price respect it 100% and gave us a very good bearish P.A , So i think we have 2 places to sell it , first one if the price back to retest my res level 1.31750 and if the price give us a good bearish price action we can enter and targeting 200 pips . if the price didn`t back to retest the res level we can wait he price to close below support with 4h candle and then we can enter a sell trade with the same target .
GBPUSD - its breakout? what's next??#GBPUSD.. as you know guys our area was 1.3035 and in first go market boke that area but then drop towards bottom due to tariff implantation.
now market again break our area in today so if that is clear breakout then we can expect a further bounce towards 3400 and 1.3500
good luck

GBPUSD today should buy or sell?GBP/USD continues to build on its bullish momentum, reclaiming the 1.3100 level on Monday morning. The ongoing weakness of the U.S. dollar suggests that the path of least resistance for this pair remains to the upside.
The key monthly employment report is set to be released on Tuesday, followed by the latest consumer inflation data on Wednesday. In addition, investors this week will also face the release of U.S. monthly Retail Sales figures and pay close attention to a speech by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell — a speech that could play a crucial role in shaping the USD’s price dynamics. These events are expected to provide meaningful catalysts for the GBP/USD pair in the latter part of the week.

GBPUSD BIG DROP ?Market Structure Overview
Previous Trend: Strong bullish move after a long bearish trend.
Current Behavior: Price has entered a higher-timeframe supply zone (highlighted in green) and is showing signs of rejection.
Supply Zones:
Major Supply: 1.31750 – 1.32000
Minor Supply: 1.31000 – 1.31300
Demand Zones:
First Demand Zone: ~1.30380
Second Demand Zone: ~1.29919
📉 Trade Setup & Plan
🅰️ Primary Bias: Bearish Rejection from Supply
🔹 Scenario 1: Ideal Short Setup
Entry: Around current price (~1.30824) or after a retest of the 1.31000–1.31300 zone.
TP1: 1.30380 (first demand zone)
TP2: 1.29919 (second demand zone)
TP3 (extension): Below 1.29000 if momentum continues
SL: Above 1.31300 (to avoid fakeouts in supply)
🧩 Reasoning:
Price failed to break above supply with strong rejection wicks.
Break of structure + liquidity taken above local highs = possible start of bearish leg.
🔹 Scenario 2: Pullback Before Continuation Lower
Wait for Break of 1.30380, then look for pullback entries (break & retest).
Entry: On bearish confirmation after price retests 1.30380 zone from below.
TP: 1.29919, and if broken, continue to trail toward 1.2900s
✅ Extra Notes
Watch for rejection patterns (e.g., pin bars, engulfing candles) on the 15M or 30M to confirm entries.
Avoid entries during high-impact news, especially UK or US CPI, interest rate decisions, or NFP.
Manage risk wisely: Max 1-2% per trade.
GBPUSD potential buy zone in inverted head & shoulder!GDP in GBPUSD had spike in actual value with the forecast has boost in this pair. Prior to data release this instrument had a break of structure has given strong liquidity grab as it has broken from long term trend line. As the market structure remain intact we may see the price to bounce back to the daily resistance line. 15m timeframe already has formed an inverted head & shoulder which signaling potential breakout. Any liquidity grab may give us potential entry in this lower timeframe.
4/15/2025 GBPUSDPossible quick scalp, Price has touched HTF POI but price seems still bullish to reach higher. Used 1 hr BUllish POI for area for entry with ltf refinement. Not my highest probability since price did touch htf POI but i'll risk %.50 since it still looks good/ getting close to end of NY. TP is 50% of the HTF POI
