Shorting Pound against DollarA trend reversal from 0.5 retracement level of previous bull rally, and subsequent lower highs are a strong indication for the upcoming bearish trend.
The strong bearish candlestick pattern on the hourly chart at the current price might be indication of a new lower high, making it a good time to short.

GBPUSD Potential for Bearish Drop | 8th December 2022Looking at the H4 chart, my overall bias is bullish for GBPUSD because the current price is above the Ichimoku cloud, indicating a bullish market. But I'm looking for a pullback sell entry. Price has reached my sell entry level of 1.22653, which corresponds to the previous swing high. The stop loss will be set at 1.26669, the previous swing high and the 127.2% Fibonacci extension line. The previous low and the 78.6% Fibonacci line are located at 1.19008.

InvestMate|GBP/USD Falling to support zone💷💵💷💵GBP/USD Falling to support zone
💷💵As I predicted in the last post perfectly the start of the declines:
💷💵This time I would like to update my perspective and bring you up to date with the current key spots on the chart.
💷💵The nearest support zone is around the 1.19 level where the fibo level of 0.236 of the current upward wave from the bottom is located.
💷💵Very likely we will see this level in the coming days.
💷💵The stronger support zone is around the 1.16 level, where there is a cluster of as many as three fibo levels. The first is the 0.382 level of the same wave as the first support zone. The second level is 1.272 of the entire upward wave from the 2001 bottom to the 2007 peak. The third level is 0.886 of the entire upward wave from the 1985 bottom to the 1992 peak.
💷💵I don't know if the price will get as far as there, but I don't rule out any option.
💷💵The scenario I am playing out is a continuation of the decline with a target level at the first support zone where I expect some kind of reaction. I will be watching the price behaviour closely at this point. I'm aware of the possibility of a correction at any time, this should be taken into account, If the outlook changes I will publish a post with an update, so I encourage you to actively follow the profile and read the description carefully.
💷💵 *Please do not suggest the path I have outlined with lines it is only a hypothetical scenario.
🚀If you appreciate my work and effort put into this post then I encourage you to leave a like and give a follow on my profile.🚀
GBPUSD - Bullish channelGBPUSD - Intraday - We look to Buy at 1.2075 (stop at 1.1990)

GBP USD - FUNDAMENTAL DRIVERSGBP
FUNDAMENTAL OUTLOOK: WEAK BEARISH
BASELINE
A looming recession has been a key source of Pound weakness and has kept pressure on Sterling despite ongoing BoE hikes. At their NOV policy decision, the BoE’s updated projections showed a deeper and longer recession than previously thought, as well as a stern push back against current market pricing for the high implied rate path. However, rate markets did not respond to this with only marginal downside in terminal rate expectations. With the new budget now out of the way, the markets should turn their attention to what this means for the economic outlook and means economic data & BoE policy should start to matter a bit more again. Unfortunately, the week ahead is extremely light so the main driver will probably be overall risk sentiment.
POSSIBLE BULLISH SURPRISES
With recession the base assumption, any incoming data that surprises meaningfully higher could trigger relief for the GBP. With focus on stagflation, any downside surprises in CPI or factors that decrease inflation pressures are expected to support the GBP and not pressure it. Any overly positive takes from BoE speak regarding the budget could be taken as a positive for Sterling.
POSSIBLE BEARISH SURPRISES
With recession the base assumption, any material downside surprises in growth data can still trigger short-term pressure. With focus on stagflation, any upside surprises in CPI or factors that increase more inflation pressures are expected to weigh on the GBP and not support it. Any overly negative takes from BoE speak regarding the budget could be taken as a negative for Sterling.
BIGGER PICTURE
The fundamentals for Sterling remain bearish with the UK already in a recession based on recent data. At least the new PM has provided some calm to the fiscal situation and political uncertainty though. Expectations are for a lot of pain ahead for the UK economy which means the fundamental outlook remains bearish . But with a lot of bad news priced, we’re looking for shortterm upside opportunities.
USD
FUNDAMENTAL OUTLOOK: BULLISH
BASELINE
The Fed is on a data-dependent (meeting-by-meeting) policy stance, meaning incoming growth, inflation and jobs data remains a key driver for short-term USD volatility where we expect a cyclical reaction for both the USD and US10Y (good data expected to be supportive for the USD and US yields while bad data is expected to pressure the USD and US yields). The Fed is still under pressure to continue hiking rates and ramping up QT, but last week’s decent deceleration in the OCT CPI report has given markets some solace from inflation angst. Money markets shed about 30bsp off the implied terminal rate. As a result of this the USD saw intense selling but has largely stabilized this week. Like we’ve said many times, right now is all about the data. The data will lead the Fed, which means the data is what we should follow for high probability short-term directional flows for the USD. In the week ahead, we have a few of important data points such as ISM Manufacturing PMI and NFP on Friday. However, also pay close attention to the scheduled speech from Fed Chair Powell on Wednesday.
POSSIBLE BULLISH SURPRISES
With the Fed signalling a data dependent policy stance, we expect a cyclical reaction from the USD with incoming US data. Thus, extremely good growth, inflation or jobs data is expected to trigger short-term bullish reactions in the USD. If the cyclical outlook continues to weaken, the USD’s safe haven status still matters. Any incoming catalysts that increase deep recession fears and triggers strong moves lower in risk assets & bonds can trigger safe haven flows into the USD. With a lot priced for the Fed and USD, the bar is high for hawkish Fed surprises, but any aggressive Fed speak talking up a >5.5% terminal rate can trigger further USD upside. The speech from Fed Chair Powell will be important. If he delivers the same stern hawkish tone that accompanied the prior FOMC presser, it can provide upside for the USD.
POSSIBLE BEARISH SURPRISES
With the Fed signalling a data dependent policy stance, we expect a cyclical reaction from the USD with incoming US data. Thus, extremely bad growth, inflation or jobs data is expected to trigger short-term bearish reactions in the USD. If the cyclical outlook starts to improve, the USD’s safe haven status still matters. Any incoming catalysts that decrease deep recession fears and triggers strong moves higher in risk assets & bonds can trigger safe haven outflows out of the USD. With a lot priced in for the Fed and the USD, it won’t take much to disappoint on the dovish side. Any big concerns about growth from Fed speakers could trigger outflows.
BIGGER PICTURE
The fundamental outlook for the USD remains bullish as long as the Fed stays aggressively hawkish and cyclical concerns put pressure on risk sentiment. However, it’s also important to remember that the data leads the Fed. That means, even though the USD remains fundamentally bullish in the currency negative cyclical environment, it’s short-term direction will largely be determined by the incoming data. Thus, in the current context, we prefer trading the USD in the short-term with scalps out of key US economic data points.
InvestMate|GBP/USD Don't count on continuation of increases💷💵💷💵GBP/USD Don't count on continuation of increases
💷💵GBP/USD Finally reached an important price level marked by a resistance zone. As we can see, the price has repeatedly found it difficult to continue upwards at these points in the past.
💷💵Will this be the case this time too?
💷💵The support zone to which I expect the price to descend is around the cluster of three fibo levels. The first is 0.382 of the entire current upward impulse. The second is the outer level of 1.272 of the entire downward wave from the 1992 peak to the 2001 bottom. The third is the level of 0.886 of the entire upward wave from the 1985 bottom to the 1992 peak.
💷💵This is the strongest closest support zone, if we were to fall on it I would expect a strong price reaction.
💷💵The scenario I am playing out is the start of a decline with a target landing on the support zone within the next few weeks. I am aware of the possibility of a correction at any time, this should be taken into account, If the outlook would change I will publish a post with an update, so I encourage you to actively follow the profile and read the description carefully.

A race! GBPUSD or EURUSD to go higher faster?Similar to the EURUSD, the GBPUSD continued to surge strongly to the upside as the price broke beyond several key resistance levels to test the 1.23 price area.
While the GBPUSD could retrace briefly down toward the 1.2150 and 1.22 price area, look for the development of the price action to signal a continuation of the uptrend.
If the GBPUSD breaks strongly above the 1.23 resistance level, the price could continue trading higher toward the next key resistance level of 1.2645.

News about the refusal to hold another referendum on Scottish independence has already been worked out. Technical factors give signals for continued growth, but macroeconomic factors do not support this trend. Active growth requires going beyond the resistance level of 1.2250-1.2300.

GBP/USD:BUY From SUPPORT Area 50% FIBO For A LONG SetupGBP/USD coming from a Bullish trend, in the last session the price made a Double Bottom in confluence with the Support area and the 50% Fibonacci levels. Today the ADP Non-Farm Employment Change and the JOLTS Job Openings with negative forecast for USD can help the price to grow in its favor. We are looking for a new Long impulse.
GBPUSD | COULD BE A GOOD BUY ONLY IF...Hello traders,
If the next candlestick manages to close as a bullish engulfing one we could have a re-test of the previous top level which would be pretty nice.
Obviously split your take profits accordingly maybe in 1/3 and manage your risk to max pip gain.
If however, this does not happen then we could be a looking at a higher timeframe rejection from a trend
