GBPUSD Swing Trade Idea Using the 3W timeframe. 1.GBPUSD is in a bearish trend 2. I am looking for Sells (LH) 3.Current trend is Pro-Trend (>Using Daily timeframe) Price on the 3W timeframe has tapped and rejected on my Fib entries, this indicates a possible structure re alignment on this timeframe. But the confirmed setup will take time to form. Therefore: using the daily timeframe, i can confirm that GBPUSD is in a bearish trend, price has recently tapped just below a liquidity area. No stable LL has been formed yet so, i will wait for a clear LL to be formed then apply the same method: Identify the last BOS, followed by the last LH and the recent LL, apply Fib to get the ideal discounted entry price for shorts. Patience can be rewarding. FX:GBPUSD

UK Retail Sales number could be trigger for big jumpUK Retail Sales number could be trigger for big jump - given forecast is -0.3 anything in positive territory could spark a big move in Cable - quite possibly last rally for 2024 before crashing back down again. 1.2615 support seems to be holding after being oversold, however there is very little buying power currently hence the consolidation within a range of 1.2620-1.27. Good luck for tomorrows retail sales number and looks like good risk reward with stoploss at 1.26 and TP at 1.3045 or thereabouts.

UK inflation report to provide fresh GBP/USD setupsGBP/USD would likely be a lot higher heading into today’s UK inflation report if not for the Ukraine headlines yesterday. The bullish pin coming a day after a bullish engulfing candle says as much, reflective of plenty of willing buyers below 1.2613. With RSI (14) breaking its downtrend and MACD looking like it may soon flick higher, momentum also looks to be in the early stages of turning, adding weight to the price signals over the past two sessions. While the near-term bias is bullish, entry for potential longs will be determined by the UK inflation report due out shortly. The annual headline rate is expected to accelerate to 2.2% from 1.7%, although traders may want to put more weight on the core and services figures given noise created by base effects. The former is seen easing a tenth to 3.1% while services is tipped to remain sticky at 4.9%, reflecting the impact of continued strength in wages growth. However, domestic factors have not been highly influential over GBP/USD moves recently, as demonstrated by the extremely tight inverse relationship with US benchmark 10-year US Treasury yields over the past fortnight. If the relationship persists, use the reaction to the report to evaluate the merit of setups. If we see a dip towards 1.2613, you could buy with a tight stop beneath for protection. 1.2720 would be the initial target with 1.2803 the next after that. Another option would be to wait to see whether the price can break above 1.2720, allowing for longs to be established with a stop below. 1.2083/200DMA would be the first target. Beyond, the uptrend dating back to May is also on the radar. It’s found around 1.2930 today. If the price were to break and hold below 1.2613, the bullish bias would be invalidated. Good luck! DS

GBPUSD: False Resistance Break Could Add to DeclineFX:GBPUSD Back to the liquidity test above after the free fall. The pair lacks bullish conviction amid a stable US dollar and as investors choose to wait for the Bank of England (BoE) Monetary Policy Report Hearing before placing strong bets. A clear bearish wave is forming on the larger timeframe, on the smaller timeframe the downtrend is formed based on negative fundamentals, which only strengthened after Trump's victory. Therefore, any strong resistance can easily hold the market. On H4, it is trying to break out of the main range, breaking the main support level. A consolidation is forming inside the channel, if sellers hold the 1.269 - 1.277 zone, we can expect a decline towards the areas of interest in the medium term. Resistance: 1.282 - 1.277 and 1.269 Support: 1.259 - 1.247 and 1.231 The focus is on the resistance level mentioned above, as the further struggle and movement of the market depends on this important zone at this point. The bearish structure will be broken when the local high at 1.282 i.e. (0.5 fib) is broken and the price consolidates above this zone.

GU - longREAL TRADER Looking from technical viewpoint GU looks like its tired of this downtrend and its a potential of reversal. Price is now breaking above resistance after making 3 HLs. If I want to buy, I want to see price break resistance to upside to make bullish structure. But if price reverse from resistance to downside its continuation of consolidation and price can come back to HL. I don't get biased - I'm just a price tracker. But I know for sure that if the price break to upside and break resistance - it's strong bullish indication of potential swing to uptrend. ~AS Malone

GBP/USD: Pound Soars Following Surprising CPI ReportOn Wednesday, the Pound Sterling (GBP) saw a significant surge against most currencies following the release of unexpected inflation data from the UK's Office for National Statistics (ONS). The Consumer Price Index (CPI) revealed that annual inflation rose to 2.3% in October, surpassing analysts' forecasts of 2.2% and a notable increase from September's 1.7%. Month-over-month, the headline inflation climbed by 0.6%, outpacing the anticipated 0.5% and recovering from a stagnant September. In addition, the core CPI, which excludes fluctuating components such as food, energy, and tobacco, registered a growth of 3.3%. This figure exceeds the previous month's reading of 3.2% and defies economists' predictions of a decline to 3.1%. Services inflation—a key metric monitored by Bank of England (BoE) policymakers—also picked up, rising to 5% from the earlier figure of 4.9%. This uptick in price pressures may prompt traders to rethink their expectations regarding interest rate cuts in the upcoming BoE meeting scheduled for December. From a technical analysis perspective, the price action remains within a bullish demand zone, suggesting a strong likelihood of further appreciation in the value of the Pound. Overall, indications point towards a potential increase in the Pound Sterling's value moving forward. ✅ Please share your thoughts about GBP/USD in the comments section below and HIT LIKE if you appreciate my analysis.
