Gbp-usd

Possible breakdown below 1.20GBP is above 1.20. That is why I obstain from shorting it now. Its risky to short it for now. It is very strong support level. But price poked below it a few times (indicates weakness and future breakdown. The more price pokes through support the weaker it gets). Trendline breakdown with a strong bearish candle indicates move lower. So do also lower low and lower highs. Price might retest monthly close before it starts trending down. IF price makes higher high on daily, it will end at 1.30. FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.

GBP/USD forecast ahead of key inflation data It is prudent to examine the strength of the US dollar against the pound in the lead up to two very important inflation data reports. First is the US inflation data due on Wednesday morning at 2.30 am (NZDT). And second is the UK’s inflation data on Wednesday night at 8.00 pm (NZDT). The annual US inflation rate to January 2023 is expected to fall to about 6.2% from 6.5% in December of 2022, and in doing so will continue the decline of consumer prices for a seventh straight month. However, a smaller than expected decline in the US inflation data might shake a little more bulls off the GBP/USD frontline, after it dropped from 1.2400 to below 1.2030 last week, its weakest level since January 6, and breaking through its upward trendline. The decline in UK inflation is expected to fall from 10.55 to 10.2%, but it has been beating expectations and falling more than forecast in its previous 2 releases, so another beat might be on the cards and putting the GBP back on the front foot. GBP/USD attempted to bounce back last Thursday after establishing support at 1.2015 but failed to close above the 200-EMA. This failed move meant the GBP/USD ended the week with a big red candle, engulfing the previous bullish candle that tried to move past the 200-EMA. The rejection at the 200-EMA means there is resistance at around 1.2121, which could be considered a lower high in the downtrend. Stronger-than-expected US inflation or weaker-than-expected UK inflation could see GBP/USD breaking below 1.2018, with 1.1900 a potential target for the downward move. On the opposite side of the trade, GBP/USD may rise to 1.2189 or even 1.2318 from a swing perspective. Look for a closing above the 200-EMA and the 1.2121 resistance area for this to happen.

GBPUSD a short opportunity 🦐In technical analysis, a distribution block is often viewed as a sign that the market is losing steam after a strong bullish trend. This can be an indication that the market is starting to correct itself, and that the trend may be reversing. In the case of GBP/USD on the 4 hour timeframe, the price breaks below the distribution block and If then will retests the previous support, which has now become resistance, it could be a sign to consider a short order according to Plancton's strategy. This is because the retest of the former support level at a lower price could indicate that the market is not able to sustain its previous bullish trend and that the bears are now in control.

GBP/USD faces further weakness near termAs described in our last idea on GBP/USD a Double top occurred after the release of economic news. Economist Lee Sue Ann and market strategist Quek Ser Leang at UOB Group believe that further declines in the GBP/USD exchange rate are still likely to occur over the coming weeks. Key Quotes Day and Night: Even though we anticipated a decline in the value of the pound last Friday, we maintained that "1.2120 is unlikely to be in danger." GBP, however, lost more ground than was anticipated, falling as low as 1.2047. The slide has room to go down to the support of 1.2000 even if it is plainly oversold before stabilization is probable. The next support level at 1.1950 is probably out of reach right now. Resistance is at 1.2100, but stabilization of the GBP's weakening would only be indicated by a breach of 1.2150.

j.Hejazi | GBP/USD Double Top with Bearish SignalsThe GBP/USD currency pair has formed a double top pattern with a divergence on the MACD indicator, which has been confirmed. The price is currently heading towards the neckline, which is the key level of 1.18550. At this level, there are several factors that may provide support, including the 200-day moving average, the ascending weekly trendline, and the 23.60 Fibonacci level. There is a high likelihood that the price may bounce off this zone of support, but if it breaks through 1.18550, it will be considered a sell signal.

GBPUSD Double Top rejection but Support cluster below.The GBPUSD pair is pulling back significantly after a Double Top rejection at 1.2455. The first Support offered is within the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) and the bottom of the Channel Up is has been trading on since October. If that holds, we'll take it as a short-term buy back to the 1.2455 Double Top Resistance. A closing above should further extend the rally to the 1.2675 May 27 High. However a break below the Channel Up, will be a sell break-out signal, targeting the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) with the best long-term buy beyond that level being on the 1.1845 Support. In both cases, we will only buy any further if the June 01 2021 Lower Highs - 1W MA200 (red trend-line) Resistance Cluster breaks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

GBP/USD faces rejection near 1.2400 - Double Top ?GBP/USD has lost its bullish vigor after Wednesday's recovery toward 1.2400. Prior to the Bank of England's (BOE) policy announcements, investors refrain from placing bets on future Pound Sterling strength, and the near-term technical outlook indicates a lack of buyer demand. The gains in GBP/USD remain modest, especially when compared to EUR/USD, notwithstanding the intense selling pressure surrounding the US Dollar late on Wednesday. The decision to hike the policy rate by 25 basis points was made, and FOMC Chairman Jerome Powell maintained that more rate rises will be appropriate. However, his admission of the disinflation in goods led to a decline in the US dollar. Powell also acknowledged that a quicker-than-anticipated decrease in inflation will be reflected in upcoming policy choices, which raises the prospect of a policy change later in the year. The BOE is anticipated to increase its policy rate by 50 basis points to 4% from 3.5% on Thursday. Tenreyro and Dhingra, two BOE Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) members, voted in December to maintain rates at 3%.

GBPUSD can move higher? 🦐GBP/USD currency pair on the 4-hour timeframe see the formation of higher highs and higher lows, followed by a distribution pattern at the recent high. This could indicate that the uptrend is still intact and that the market is undergoing a period of consolidation before potentially continuing its upward movement. It appears that the pair is currently trading within a range between the recent highs and the 0.618 Fibonacci level, which is considered a key support level. The presence of daily support also suggests that there is a potential for the price to hold at these levels and continue to trade within the established range. Technical analysis suggests that traders watch for a break above the recent highs according to Plancton's strategy to confirm the continuation of the bullish trend.

GBP/USD trades in a range above 1.2300 as the Fed nearsIn early Europe, the GBP/USD is finding it difficult to move significantly higher than 1.2300. The pair is still supported as the US Dollar licks its wounds, US Treasury yields decline, and traders exercise caution before the Fed announces its policy decisions. US PMIs will also be monitored. The markets appear to be confident that the US central bank would moderate its aggressive approach and announce a lower 25 bps rate hike on Wednesday at the conclusion of a two-day meeting. This impacts on the USD and keeps US Treasury bond yields low. Trading participants appear hesitant to make big bearish wagers on the USD/JPY pair as the significant central bank event risk approaches. In addition, remarks made by BoJ Governor Kuroda Haruhiko, who stated that the bank must maintain its loose monetary policy and 2% inflation objective, limit the JPY's upward potential. This calls for more care before positioning for any appreciable significant fall, at least initially.
