GBPUSD Short opportunity Re-entry in Order Block Price made the high of the week on Wednesday and closed yesterday's daily candle with a bearish pattern. Today, I was looking for shorts only and found a good entry earlier during the London session, hitting Wednesday's low. Price just gave a reentry in the order block around 1.26470. Targeting today's low and ultimately Tuesday's low, with a longer-term target at Monday's low around 1.26014. Additionally, today's focus is on the weekly jobless claims data, which could impact market sentiment. Stop-loss is set above today's high around 1.26600, a psychological level, to manage risk effectively. RSI is showing bearish divergence, supporting the short bias. Overall market sentiment is bearish due to increased concerns over economic data. Keep an eye on upcoming economic data. Chart Annotations: - Wednesday High - Thursday High - Monday Low - Tuesday Low - Wednesday Low - Order Block around 1.26470 - Selling Point at 1.26415 - Buying Point at 1.26427

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.

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.

Fundamental Market Analysis for November 21, 2024 GBPUSDThe GBP/USD pair declined to 1.26500 during Asian trading on Thursday. This decline can be attributed to the weakening of the US dollar (USD). The US Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the value of the dollar against six major peers, is holding near 106.50 at the time of writing. However, downside risk to the US Dollar may be limited due to cautious remarks from Federal Reserve (Fed) officials. Boston Fed President Susan Collins said on Wednesday that while further interest rate cuts are necessary, policymakers should proceed cautiously to avoid moving too fast or too slow, Bloomberg reported. Meanwhile, Fed Chair Michelle Bowman emphasized that inflation has remained elevated over the past few months and stressed the need for the Fed to take a cautious approach to rate cuts. The Reuters poll showed that nearly 90% of economists (94 out of 106) expect a 25 bps rate cut in December, which would bring the federal funds rate down to 4.25-4.50%. Economists forecast a slower rate cut in 2025 due to the risk of higher inflation as a result of President-elect Trump's policies. The federal funds rate is forecast to be 3.50-3.75% by the end of 2025, 50 bps above last month's forecast. GBP/USD's upside potential seems restrained due to safe-haven flows amid the escalating conflict between Russia and Ukraine. On Wednesday, Ukraine fired a salvo of British Storm Shadow cruise missiles into Russian territory, marking the latest use of Western weapons against Russian targets. This came after Ukraine used U.S. ATACMS missiles the previous day. Trading recommendation: Trade mainly with Sell orders from the current price level.

The pair is currently bouncing off the lower trendline of its upward trend, suggesting potential for further gains up to the 1.34000 level. However, if the price reverses and breaks below the lower trendline, it could signal a trend reversal. In such a case, a decline toward the 1.20000 level might be anticipated, necessitating a strategy adjustment.

SetupsFX time a corker of a trade. Long GBPUSD This is travelling nicely by all accounts. First chart is the 1hr. GBP is positioned at the big-time lows, no wonder they went after my big lot-size first trade which they illegally took down. But I got back in with about 1/5th lot size. Look its true, they will target you and bet against you when big lot size is noticed. Why in trading you gotta be a gray-man and lay real low. Nobody can work out the gray-man or gray-lady, they hide everything and blend in very well. Sneak around like a spectator and then while know nobody is watching - BAM. Here is the trade on the much lower timeframes.
