Election Day Trade: GBPUSDToday marks a significant moment in the United States—Election Day—and as traders, we know that market sentiment can be influenced by political events. This morning, I took a strategic position on GBPUSD, entering the trade at 1.29623. With the current price now at 1.30266, the trade is showing promising momentum. The volatility associated with elections can create unique opportunities. In this case, the British pound seems to be gaining traction against the dollar, likely reflecting optimism or reactions to the unfolding political landscape. The key to successful trading on days like today is staying vigilant, managing risk, and being ready to adjust your strategy based on incoming news and market reactions. As always, I emphasize the importance of having a solid exit plan. With the market currently moving in my favor, I’m assessing the best points for taking profits while also remaining aware of potential reversals as the day progresses. What trades are you taking today, and how are you navigating the uncertainties of Election Day? Share your thoughts and strategies in the comments below! Your perspective could spark valuable conversations among fellow traders. (All Trading Ideas are shared for Educational Purposes. Trade the market at your own risk.)

GBP/USD Short Setup AnalysisGBP/USD Short Setup Analysis Timeframe: 1H Bias: Bearish Overview: This idea focuses on a potential short setup in GBP/USD based on recent structural behavior, supply and demand zones, and a strong bearish bias following a Break of Structure (BoS). Key Analysis: Break of Structure (BoS): We have two clear BoS points on the chart, indicating a shift in market direction as price continues to form lower highs and lower lows. This pattern is reinforcing our bearish outlook. Supply Zone: Price has entered a marked supply zone near the 1.3000 level, highlighted in red. This area represents a high probability for sellers to take control and push the price downward. Stop-loss is placed slightly above this zone (around 1.3005), minimizing risk in case of an unexpected bullish breakout. Demand Zone: The demand zone (highlighted in blue) is positioned below the current price action, around the 1.2845 level. This area is where buyers may step in, making it a key target level for this setup. Entry, Target, and Stop-Loss: Entry: Around the 1.2995 - 1.3000 supply area. 1st Take-Profit (TP): Set around the 1.2920 level for a conservative profit target. Final Target: The final target is located at 1.2845, aligning with the demand zone and potential reversal point. Stop-Loss: Placed at 1.3005, just above the supply zone to ensure controlled risk. Trade Summary: This setup provides a high-risk-reward ratio as it capitalizes on the bearish momentum and market structure shifts. Entering at the supply zone with targets set at key structural levels allows for both a conservative and a more aggressive take-profit approach. Risk Management: As always, use proper risk management. Adjust your position size according to your risk tolerance. Let’s see how the setup unfolds! If this idea aligns with your analysis, please feel free to like or share! Happy trading! #GBPUSD #Forex #SupplyAndDemand #BreakOfStructure #ShortSetup

GBPUSD: Bearish Setup at Key ResistanceAfter a prolonged downtrend, GBPUSD showed signs of recovery but quickly lost momentum due to a lack of buying strength. Currently, the pair is trading around 1.2963, approaching a key resistance zone highlighted on the chart. This area is likely to attract strong selling pressure, as it’s firmly in the sights of bearish traders. A selling strategy here could be favorable. The chart also indicates two target levels for this potential downtrend. In the short term, my preference is to adopt a sell strategy. What about you? How would you trade this setup?

GBPUSD Market Update: Key Influences and Chart AnalysisToday, GBPUSD is hovering around 1.293 as it attempts to stabilize after recent volatility. The pair has been facing downward pressure due to ongoing uncertainty around the UK’s economic outlook and the strength of the USD. The chart suggests that GBPUSD recently encountered resistance in the 1.2978 zone, with multiple rejections, signaling a strong selling pressure around this level. After testing this resistance, the pair is now trending downward, breaking through the sideways range, indicating potential further declines. Technical indicators, including the EMA levels shown on the chart, suggest a bearish outlook. The projected path illustrates a corrective bounce but ultimately points to a continuation of the downward trend, with a possible support target around 1.2850 or lower if selling pressure persists. Given these signals, traders should monitor key news events that could impact the USD and GBP sentiment, such as upcoming U.S. and UK economic releases. A cautious approach may favor short positions, aligning with the bearish indicators on the chart.

30-min GBP/USD: High Buying InterestOn the 30-minute chart, GBP/USD is displaying encouraging signs of bullish momentum. The 20-period EMA has crossed above the 60-period EMA, indicating strong upward momentum and suggesting continued buying interest. The Fibonacci retracement from the recent low of 1.2844 to the high of 1.3000 highlights key support levels: 23.6% retracement at 1.2964: Price is currently holding above this level, suggesting strong bullish pressure and potential for further upside. 38.2% retracement at 1.2935: This level aligns closely with the 20-period EMA, offering dynamic support. 50% level at 1.2922: This is a key psychological and technical support zone, reinforcing the bullish trend. If GBP/USD maintains support above the 23.6% or 38.2% levels, the next target could be a retest of the 1.3000 high, with potential for a breakout towards new highs. The uptrend remains intact as long as the pair trades above the 60-period EMA.

GBP/ USD ! 11/4! Resistance H1 SELL NOW ! not NEWS GBP/USD trend forecast November 4, 2024 The GBP/USD pair rises to around 1.2970 during Monday’s Asian session, aided by a weaker US Dollar (USD). The USD faces pressure after October's soft US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) data, supporting the pair's gains. Following a 50 bps rate cut in September that initiated the easing cycle, the US Federal Reserve (Fed) is expected to lower rates by 25 bps in its November meeting, with markets assigning a 97% probability to this move. The Dollar weakens as traders prepare for the US presidential election and the Fed’s rate decision this week. There was no USD and GBP news data at the beginning of the week, the price recovered and hit the H1 resistance, along with the 2nd GAP. DOWN to fill liquidity, stabilize the price trend during the week. /// SELL GBP/USD : zone 1.29970 - 1.30200 SL: 1.30500 TP: 60 - 120 - 200 pips (1.28200) Safe and profitable trading

GBP, HUGE UPSIDE! Back to Long-standing 38-year support!!!I checked GBP tri-monthly chart which is not usually posted here -- and the pair is already telling us something on the direction it wants to go at broader long term spectrum. On the tri monthly data, GBP has started shifting its trend --- bouncing off it perfectly on a 38-year long standing very solid support. The pair's last visit to this price range was on April 1985. The pair is back at 1.0 FIB LEVEL (on tri-monthly) -- this is outrageously beyond bargain. Histogram wise, another higher lows was created conveying the current price range to be the last base price before the series of incoming series of ascend. Incoming Price valuation will be above average -- and that's an understatement. Bubble up volume (bottom indicator) finally appeared after almost 2 years (last one was July 2021). This is the 2nd straight appearance in 6 months this year, cementing the intention of the pair's target direction. Confidence on this pair's long term direction is firm. A 10% increase from current price within the next 12-16 months (very long candle on tri-monthly) is very possible. Spotted at 1.25 TAYOR. Safeguard capital always.
