GbpUsd- Preparing for reversalAs I mentioned last week, I’m closely monitoring the GBP/USD pair for a potential upside reversal. This expectation is based on the recent overlapping decline, which is contained within a channel, as well as the proximity to a significant support level. In recent days, the pair hit a local low of 1.2912 before reversing toward 1.3000 and beginning a consolidation phase. I believe it’s only a matter of time before GBP/USD clears the 1.3000 mark, potentially accelerating toward a target around 1.3150.

The UK's £40 Billion Budget: What Does it Mean For GBP Traders?For traders following GBP/USD and GBP/EUR, today’s UK budget rollout might be impactful. The Labour government’s plan introduces a £40 billion tax increase and invests in infrastructure—moves that could shape the pound’s trajectory. While the fiscal measures aim to strengthen public finances, they may exert near-term pressure on GBP, potentially affecting growth rates. Watching these shifts will be key for traders. GBP/USD Potential Historically, GBP/USD has been sensitive to fiscal news, and today’s budget may stir some extra volatility. Currently, GBP/USD sits around key support at 1.30—a level it’s held onto in recent dips. Should today’s announcements apply downside pressure, GBP/USD could test support around 1.28, with 1.25 being the next significant marker. On the upside, if the market views these tax increases as beneficial for stability, the pair might target 1.3150 resistance. Strong consumer or growth data could provide further support toward this level, but breaking above it may require more robust economic updates. GBP/EUR Potential With GBP/EUR, there’s a bit of a balancing act at play. While tax hikes could weigh on GBP, ongoing eurozone challenges might stabilise the pair. GBP/EUR remains in a defined range, with support around 1.14 and resistance at 1.16. Any shifts in ECB policy—especially if hawkish—could nudge the euro higher, influencing the pair’s movement. Macro & Technical Balancing Act On a broader scale, the Bank of England’s rate path will be essential here. If rates rise to keep inflation in check, this could add support for GBP. However, tax hikes could dampen consumer demand, potentially easing pressure on the BoE for further rate hikes in the short term. In summary, today’s budget introduces potential volatility for GBP/USD and GBP/EUR. Watching 1.28 or 1.3150 on GBP/USD, and the range in GBP/EUR, will provide useful signals. With both the BoE and ECB in play, staying tuned to macro updates and watching price action around key levels could help traders stay ahead.

Lingrid | GBPUSD buying OPPORTUNITY from the SUPPORT zoneFX:GBPUSD broke below the previous support level but has formed an inverse head and shoulders pattern at the psychological level of 1.3000. As the market approaches this level, it has been decelerating and it created bullish divergence. The price bounced off the channel border and has closed above the psychological level making higher lows. Additionally, since the TVC:DXY has formed a triple top at the resistance zone, it suggests that it may be poised for a downward correction. My goal is resistance zone around 1.31100 Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩‍💻

GBPUSD LONG 150PIPS1. Key Support and Resistance Levels Identify recent support levels to confirm the stop-loss placement around 340 pips below your entry. If the price sits close to a strong support level, this might provide a buffer against further declines. Ensure your 150-pip target is near a resistance level, especially if GBP/USD has been trending upward. Resistance nearby could indicate the trade is likely to reach the take-profit level. 2. Fundamental Analysis GBP/USD is highly sensitive to economic news from both the UK and US, including interest rate decisions by the Bank of England (BoE) and Federal Reserve, as well as data like employment figures, inflation reports, and GDP releases. Check for upcoming economic data releases that could cause volatility in GBP/USD, as this would impact the probability of reaching your take-profit level without hitting the larger stop loss.

GBP/USD Descending Broadening wedge Today marked the 5th hit on the trendline validating the pattern. Typicllay broadening descending wedges are a bullish sign. Coupled with the fact that GBP/USD made its way very close to key levels of support today and news drops come later today I would expect a breakout coming shortly. I will be patiently waiting for entry into a bullish trend however I have not taken my eyes off the current levels of support. If we break bellow further downward potential is still possible. **KEYS FOR REVERSAL CURRENTLY MET** 1. Bullish RSI Divergency on 4HR Chart. Current Low set a higher low on the RSI. 2. 5 touches on both sides of the shown pattern (Validating patterns presence) 3. Over a 4% downward move for GBP/USD with no major corrections (I look for 3-5%) 4. At Key Level of Support

GBPUSD → Confirmation of a trend change. The Bear ZoneFX:GBPUSD confirms the bearish market structure. The fundamnetal factor is favorable for further decline. Since the opening of the session, the price has been testing the previously broken boundary. The market is not ready to resist the sellers yet On the background of difficult situation in the west, the course of interest rate cuts in the UK, a pool of sell orders is forming in the zone 1.315 - 1.300. Buyers are turning around. On Monday, in the Asian session, the retest of the previously broken trend support ended with a downward impulse, which confirms the bearish mood in the market. GBPUSD confirms the price exit from the channel. It is possible that another retest is possible, as the dollar is forming a short-term correction, but it does not change the general essence of it Resistance levels: 1.3044, 1.3068 Support levels: 1.300, 1.2975, 1.2938 The trigger for the continuation of the fall will be the breakdown of 1.3000 and further consolidation of the price below this zone. Additional scenario: retest of 1.3063 - 1.3075 before further fall Rate, share your opinion and questions, let's discuss what's going on with ★ FX:GBPUSD ;) Regards R. Linda!

GBPUSD Next Week TradesThese are the three trades that I will be looking to take next week. Trade #1 2.93:1 short trade to 1h demand zone. Price has aggresively rejected from the 4h LH and has also formed relative equal highs (this is important for the third and final trade). I am expecting price to push down to the 1h POI (trade #2) which is also below equal lows. If price pulls back up into the 1h POI then I will look for a short entry on the lower time frames. Trade #2 3.8:1 long trade to 1h POI above relative equal highs. The relative equal highs mean that above them is liquidity. I am expecting price to push up above these highs to then carry on moving down. I will look for long entries on the lower time frames after price has reached this zone. Trade #3 9.32:1 short to daily POI This is the main trade of the week. I expect price to carry on with its down trend until it reaches the daily POI (target). If price sweeps the relative equal highs and enters this zone I will look for short entry opportunities to continue with the higher time frame trends. These three trades equal 16.05% potential returns. Like this post and follow to keep updated throughout next weeks trading.
