GBP/USD Shorts from the daily supplyI’m anticipating a potential retracement as price has been heavily bullish and is now beginning to show signs of being overbought. After recently breaking major structure to the upside, there’s room for a temporary sell-off as price corrects before continuing higher. I’ll be watching for possible reactions from the 59-minute demand zone for a minor bounce, but the more ideal long opportunity would be at the 12H demand zone around 1.3300, where structure is cleaner and confluences align. Confluences for Short-Term Sells: - A recent change of character (CHOCH) to the downside signals a shift in momentum - A clean daily supply zone has been left behind that could initiate a deeper pullback - Significant liquidity below, including the Asia low, ready to be swept - For price to maintain long-term bullish movement, it must first correct, fill imbalances, and mitigate valid demand levels P.S. If price drops further and breaks structure, we’ll likely see a new supply zone form. This will provide a closer and more refined opportunity to participate in the move. Stay sharp and trade safe! 📉📈

GBPUSD Bearish Setup | Trend Reversal Setup in Progress...📉 Technical Outlook _ After a strong bullish rally within a parallel ascending channel, GBP/USD is now showing signs of potential reversal.

Market next move 🚫 Disruption Points 1. No Clear Breakout Confirmation Issue: The chart does not show a clear breakout of any recent highs or resistance levels. Disruption: Without a break of a key level (like 1.3480–1.3500), the bullish target is premature. 2. Bearish Price Structure Observation: The price has been making lower highs and lower lows over the last few candles. Disruption: This may indicate a downtrend, not a setup for a bullish target. 3. Low Momentum Issue: Volume appears to be declining, and recent bullish candles are smaller and weaker. Disruption: The move toward the target may lack strength and could reverse without momentum.

Market next move 🔍 Disruption/Critique of the Current Target Analysis: 1. Lack of Technical Justification: The chart marks a “Target” level without referencing a clear technical basis (e.g., resistance, Fibonacci level, or moving average). Without a corresponding pattern or indicator signal (e.g., breakout, double bottom, divergence), the target seems arbitrary. 2. Volume Spike Misinterpretation: While there’s a volume spike in the last candle, it's accompanied by a bearish candle, suggesting potential selling pressure, not buying strength. A bullish continuation would ideally require a green candle with increasing volume, which is absent here. 3. Market Context Ignored: No consideration of broader market context such as macroeconomic news, DXY strength, or interest rate expectations which heavily impact GBP/USD. The U.S. flag icon indicates upcoming news – trading before such events can be risky and invalidate the technical target. 4. Resistance Zone Overlooked: The “Target” lies near the 1.3500 psychological level, which often acts as resistance. This isn’t discussed or marked. Recent price action near that level shows rejection, making it a questionable target without strong buying confirmation

GBPUSD: If Trump could lower the rates! Hello Traders, If Trump could lower the race, we will see more bullish weeks for the pair. At least for this week I'm more Bullish! The indicated levels are determined based on the most reaction points and the assumption of approximately equal distance between the zones. Some of these points can also be confirmed by the mathematical intervals of Murray. You can enter with/without confirmation. IF you want to take confirmation you can use LTF analysis, Spike move confirmation, Trend Strength confrimation and ETC. SL could be placed below the zone or regarding the LTF swings. TP is the next zone or the nearest moving S&R, which are median and borders of the drawn channels. ******************************************************************* Role of different zones: GREEN: Just long trades allowed on them. RED: Just Short trades allowed on them. BLUE: both long and short trades allowed on them. WHITE: No trades allowed on them! just use them as TP points

GBPUSD Is Bearish! Short! Here is our detailed technical review for GBPUSD. Time Frame: 12h Current Trend: Bearish Sentiment: Overbought (based on 7-period RSI) Forecast: Bearish The market is trading around a solid horizontal structure 1.347. The above observations make me that the market will inevitably achieve 1.325 level. P.S Please, note that an oversold/overbought condition can last for a long time, and therefore being oversold/overbought doesn't mean a price rally will come soon, or at all.

GBPUSD BULLISH OR BEARISH DETAILED ANALYSIS ??GBPUSD has successfully completed its retest of the 1.34300–1.34500 support zone and is now showing strong signs of resuming its bullish momentum. The recent structure confirms a classic bullish continuation pattern, as price bounced cleanly off a critical support level that previously acted as resistance. This level has now flipped into a solid demand zone, giving buyers confidence to push toward the 1.40000 psychological target. Price action continues to respect the uptrend with higher lows forming since mid-April, suggesting strength and institutional accumulation. From a macroeconomic perspective, the British pound remains fundamentally supported. Recent UK inflation data surprised to the upside, causing the market to delay rate cut expectations from the Bank of England. In contrast, the US dollar is weakening due to rising expectations that the Federal Reserve could initiate rate cuts later this year as inflation cools and labor market data softens. This divergence in policy outlooks between the BoE and the Fed is fueling bullish pressure on GBPUSD, making the 1.40000 level a realistic and high-probability target. Technical confluence also supports this bullish wave. Fibonacci retracement levels drawn from the recent swing low to the high align closely with the support zone at 1.34300, which acted as a perfect retest before the next leg higher. Additionally, the bullish engulfing candles and consistent daily closes above the support level add further confirmation to the upside bias. As long as the pair holds above 1.34300, the structure favors bulls with strong momentum to test and potentially break the 1.38000 intermediate level on the way to 1.40000. GBPUSD remains a high-confidence bullish opportunity, aligning both technically and fundamentally. The recent breakout and retest phase is complete, and the pair now appears poised for a sustained rally. With bullish market sentiment, favorable UK data, and USD softness across the board, this setup offers an excellent risk-to-reward ratio for medium-term swing traders targeting the 1.40000 zone.

GBPUSD May 30 Bias and Logic for a sell off dayGBPUSD May 30 Bias and Logic for a sell off day *Cycle consolidation coming into Asia *Previous buy side liquidity taken at NY 9 Macro coming into NY close to consolidation *Premium on the day with a sell off idea for Asia and London, to rebalance yesterdays inefficiencies Dealer delivery price takes NY 9 macro buy stop then creates smooth equal highs, likely hood of it swinging high to take liquidity to drop for the sell profile Im anticipating *higher equal highs 1.35226 not taken made me nervous, sometimes price is greedy *Price swings up 21:00 macro to take noted equal highs * note the higher highs wicking at the 50% level *note how its just the wicks no bodies touch the 50 I was using this logic to frame EUR short sell trade I was hunting for

GBPUSD Poised for a Bearish MoveGBPUSD Poised for a Bearish Move On the 4-hour chart, GBPUSD has completed an ugly variation of a Harmonic Pattern. While the pattern itself is not ideal, it successfully prevented the price from rising above 1.3590. The market surged unexpectedly a few days ago, following Trump’s aggressive 50% tariff proposal on Europe, but today, GBPUSD is reversing course. Yesterday, a trade court blocked Trump’s tariffs, ruling that he overstepped his authority with broad import duties. This decision gave a boost to the US dollar, and after a brief pause, GBPUSD may now be setting up for a bearish trend. Targets: 1.3350 | 1.3250 | 1.3170 You may find more details in the chart!
