GBP - BULLISH but for how long? 1.40?!GBP - One of my favourite currency pairs!
How's everyone doing? What's your favourite currency pair to trade? Do you have an edge? If not - Work hard and create your own edge - I am sure 100% you can and will accomplish that goal. If you don't know what edge is - Message me privately.
Sometimes, you don't actually need to trade all the currency pairs and concentrate on selective few that you may have further interest in creating your edge. I've been loving trading GBP - Scalped, day trades and even longer term trades kept for months! It's been great currency with the fundamental & technical aspects...BUT how long do we keep buying for? Well there are key resistance areas within longer time frames that you can analyse further in depth.
Quick outlook:
GBPUSD Technical aspects:
Pattern: Bullish flag Measured towards high ends of 1.39 areas nice confluence of Fib area.
Support: 1.38565, 1.38435, 1.38130
Resistance: 1.39250, 1.39460, 1.39705, 1.39955 - 1.40
IF we go below 50 EMA - I'd say bears will gain control.
Pay key attention to 1.39 half area!
Key tip: Don't go following or copying other peoples plans - Add further CONFLUENCE - Follow your own trade plan! It's more prosperous in the long run.
Have a good day.

gbp usd longLongs from this area are now looking nice. We look to have broken our counter trend line, rejecting 50ma and 61.8 fib zone.
I'll be watching price action on lower time frames for further confirmation!
I recently posted a short idea on this pair but this is trading, have no bias and simply trade what you see!
GBPUSD - Potential Short (SELL) Entry DevelopingGBPUSD has continued with it's bullish up-trend with the current risk-on market sentiment.
I've identified A potential level for an overdue retracement at the 140.0 level - this is a strong psychological level, and it also aligns nicely with the current bullish trend line.
I've identified other factors including correlation which supports this short term retracement idea.
Shorting GBPUSD is a high risk endeavour at the moment and this is the only area with the highest amount of confluence for a "safer" short attempt at the moment.
Resistance becomes support#GBPUSD: Having broken the rising trend line, price is now looking to test it as support level. Failure to break back down will give the bulls the strength to break upwards past the 1.3870 supply level. Demand levels 1.38 & 1.3760 should be strong enough to absorb the sell volume.
GBPUSD - Is it time to FADE?WEDNESDAY - Half way through the week!
GBPUSD - I like the long side for GBPUSD for months. It's a great trade that has had great momentum, I stuck to my trade plan, being disciplined is key and built long positions along the way - I am now scaling out of my positions!

GBPUSD - WEEK AHEADSo the Bullish TL from the March lows is still firmly in tact. But we need to break this resistance to push higher. The first target is pretty obvious, with the psychological 1.40 but technically, the first resistance after it breaks here is 1.44.
Pull back area for the corrective sells also could be valid with sells below the 23.6% Fib level showing a valid break of this consolidation.
GBPUSD INSIDE BAR BREAK UPGBPUSD on the 4h chart is making inside bar, an inside bar on the 4h chart basically represents a 1h consolidation, so you look for price to break the previous candles high and you place your stop beneath the inside bars low. these offer great risk reward and usually fast impulsive trades, so fingers crossed
