GBPUSD Chart Analysis
After falling to the 1.31500 level as expected, the pair reversed and climbed toward the 1.34000 area. However, for further upside potential, it must break through the 1.34000 level.
We will use the upper resistance and lower support levels as key reference points.
A break below 1.31500 suggests a bearish trend, while a breakout above 1.34000 would indicate a bullish trend.

**Technical Highlights:**
- **Resistance Level:** 1.3340 (historical supply zone)
- **Market Structure:** Lower highs, early signs of bearish trend
- **Target Zone:** 1.3000 – 1.2800

GBPUSD: Bearish Head & Shoulders Pattern + TriangleGBPUSD: Bearish Head & Shoulders Pattern + Triangle
Yesterday GBPUSD declined nearly -1.23% during the opening of the London Market. This was accopanied by the news that the US Reached a good deal with China related to tariffs.
This news was made public by the White House.
Both countries will suspend tariffs for an initial period of 90 days.
The U.S. will cut extra tariffs it imposed on Chinese imports in April this year to 30% from 145% and Chinese duties on U.S. imports will fall to 10% from 125%, the two sides said on Monday. The new measures are effective for 90 days.
This news supported USD strength on the short term and GBPUSD declined from 160 pips from 1.3300 to 1.3140
Technical Analysis:
The bearish movement confirmed the breakout from the bearish Triangle pattern and from the Head and shoulder pattern we can see on the chart. A possible pause is expected after this moment given that we don't have strong reasons to see a more aggressive decline.
However the bearish movement may condinue during the week following new developments from the tariffs front related to the other countries.
Targets: 1.3100 ; 1.3000 and 1.2900 are very strong structure zones dating back also on the past.

GBP/USD Bullish Playbook – Multi-Timeframe Strategy (May 2025)GBP/USD is in a clear daily uptrend, with price respecting an ascending channel since December 2024. A recent pullback to the 1.3200–1.3250 support zone set the stage for a bounce, aligning with a 1-hour double bottom and a 15-minute bull flag forming around 1.3300–1.3360.
Key short-term levels:
Support: 1.3300–1.3310 (H1 neckline & intraday trendline).
Resistance: 1.3360–1.3370 (flag high and daily breakout zone).
Trading plan:
Buy dips near 1.3300 with stops under 1.3285.
Target: 1.3360, then 1.3400–1.3450.
Breakout trade: Long above 1.3370 if momentum holds.
Fade scenario: Short 1.3360 rejections back to 1.3320.
All three timeframes support a bullish bias into higher highs, with clean setups and tight stops. This plan favors high-RR trades in a tight range with breakout potential.
GBPUSD Setup 14.05.2025GBPUSD – Long Setup Pending (May 14, 2025)
Price is approaching a 30m Fair Value Gap (FVG) created after a strong impulsive move. If price taps into the FVG zone at 1.33270–1.33160 and shows a bullish reaction (engulfing or strong rejection wick), it presents a high-probability long setup.
Entry: On bullish confirmation inside FVG (1.33270–1.33160)
Stop Loss: 1.33118 (below FVG)
Target: 1.33760
RR: ~1:3
Wait for clear bullish price action before entering. No entry if FVG fails or price drops through without reaction.
