GBP/USD: Bullish Short-Term Move Towards Liquidity at 1.2700📊 Market Structure & Key Levels GBP/USD is currently trading around 1.2650, sitting at a key demand zone while maintaining a bullish structure on the 4H timeframe. The pair has been showing signs of accumulation and could be setting up for a liquidity grab towards 1.2700 - 1.2708 before any potential reaction. 🔍 Trade Setup: Bullish Bias Towards Liquidity Pool BUY Entry Zone: 1.2640 - 1.2650 Target 1 (TP1): 1.2690 (Minor Liquidity Grab) Target 2 (TP2): 1.2700 - 1.2708 (Institutional Resistance) Stop Loss (SL): 1.2625 (Below Demand Zone & Fibonacci Support) 📈 Why Take This Trade? ✔️ Bullish Structure Intact – Price is above key moving averages (6 EMA, 24 EMA, 72 EMA), and the Supertrend remains bullish. ✔️ Institutional Liquidity at 1.2700+ – Major market players have orders sitting above this level, making it a prime target. ✔️ Demand Zone & Fibonacci Support – Price is reacting from 1.2640-1.2650, aligning with Fibonacci retracement and historical demand zones. ✔️ Order Flow Confirms Strength – Market depth shows strong buy-side interest at current levels, supporting a push higher. 📰 High-Impact News to Watch ⚠️ Fed Chair Powell Testimony (Feb 27, 2025) – Powell's remarks on inflation and future rate hikes could bring volatility to GBP/USD. Any hints of a hawkish Fed stance may strengthen the USD, leading to potential pullbacks. ⚠️ UK GDP Data (Feb 29, 2025) – A weaker-than-expected print could weigh on GBP, while a positive surprise might fuel further upside. 📌 Final Thoughts: Trade Smart & Manage Risk! I’m keeping a close eye on the reaction at 1.2700-1.2708. Bulls have the upper hand, and liquidity above should get taken. Let’s see how price action unfolds! 🔥 What’s your bias? Drop your thoughts in the comments! 🔥

GBPUSD about to break to the upside (after a little dip perhaps)I think we're very close to the top of the current move up, and we'll then see some pullback before heading higher still. I've used an example from BITSTAMP:BTCUSD 2020 chart as it lines up perfectly with where we currently are (white arrow). Below is how I see this playing out: And here, you can see from a previous reversal on FX:GBPUSD that we drop out and continue heading up: Right now, I think we won't get much higher (if at all) than the 1.26800 range. I'll update this post as more ideas/thoughts come in over the next days :) Thoughts?

GBP/USD - Weekly Liquidity & Fair Value Gaps AnalysisOverview The British Pound (GBP/USD) is currently trading around 1.2652, showing a bullish recovery after sweeping weekly sell-side liquidity. Price has reacted from a weekly fair value gap (W.FVG) / BISI and is approaching key resistance levels. Key Levels & Liquidity Zones 📌 Weekly Sellside Liquidity: Taken, leading to a bullish reversal. 📌 Weekly Buy-side Sweep: Possible target around 1.2774 (50% retracement). 📌 W.FVG // BISI (Bullish Imbalance Sellside Inefficiency): Acting as support. 📌 W.FVG / SIBI (Sell-side Imbalance Buy-side Inefficiency): A potential rejection zone around 1.2774. Technical Outlook 🔹 Bullish Reversal: The price has bounced from key liquidity zones, suggesting further upside. 🔹 Fair Value Gaps (FVGs): The market has filled some inefficiencies but still has upside targets. 🔹 Potential Scenarios: A continuation towards 1.2774 (weekly resistance & FVG fill). A possible rejection at that level before resuming the trend. Trade Plan ✅ Bullish Bias: Looking for pullbacks into support (W.FVG) for long opportunities. ❌ Bearish Confirmation: Rejection from 1.2774 could signal a retracement. 📊 Risk Management: Stop-loss placement below recent structure lows. 🔥 Watch these liquidity sweeps and fair value gaps for potential trading opportunities! 📌 Like & Follow for more trade ideas! 🚀

Lingrid | GBPUSD Divergence at Critical RESISTANCE LevelThe price perfectly fulfilled my previous idea. It hit the target level. FX:GBPUSD market is currently making higher highs; however, it appears to be losing momentum as the price approaches the key level at 1.27000. Additionally, a bearish divergence suggests that a pullback may be imminent. The price has been moving sideways in a range zone since Friday, reflecting indecision at this level. Thus, I think the market might form a spike to take liquidity above the recent highs before pushing lower. The last weekly candle is a small doji-like candle, which often indicates a potential reversal, especially as the price is nearing a key resistance zone. My goal is support zone around 1.25075 Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩‍💻

GBPUSD UPDATEGBPUSD currently moving in a range between strong supply and demand zone (1.26200 to 1.26730).We can go for high probability setup after break of zone. Now see if we go to resistance area(1.26738 to 1.26910). in that zone if we see rejection then wo go for sell till our demand zone (1.26200). And if we break the supply zone then we can go for long on retesting and market structure shift then our next target would be next liquidity point. Similarly, if price first goes down to the demand zone (1.26200 to 1.25990) we see if price get rejection in m15 candle then we look for Long on MSS. But once the demand zone break we will look for short on retest. Do follow us to get notified of new publication.hit like and leave a comment if you find this setup profitable.
