GBPUSD SHORT IDEA

116
GBPUSD has been rally up for a while. Currently, there's a divergence signal from the awesome oscillator on the daily timeframe. Switching to 4 hours timeframe, there's a clearer view of what's going on. Based on the 4 hours chart, rising wedge has been formed and there's also a bearish divergence signal from the awesome oscillator. In addition to these, price has mitigated a daily supply zone after taking out a significant high as a liquidity. Then, a bearish engulfing candlestick was formed, signifying potential reversal. On 1 hour timeframe, price has broken out of a rising wedge and retested it.

As a retail trader, one can enter a short position after the bearish engulfing candlestick confirmation. This aligns with the 1 hour breakout and retest. While one can wait for price to break out of the 4 hours rising wedge.

As a smart money trader, one can wait for a change of character and break of structure on the 4 hours timeframe to confirm that price has really changed its trend ready for a reversal.

Either way, one can take advantage of the potential short opportunity on GBPUSD.

Confluences for the short signal:
1. Bearish divergence signal from awesome oscillator on daily and 4 hours timeframe.
2. Rising wedge on 4 hours timeframe.
3. Price mitigating daily supply zone.
4. Price has taken out a significant high as a liquidity.
