GBPUSD Technical Expert Review - 3 May 2025🔮 Price Forecast (Main Scenarios)
📈 Bullish Scenario (if price reacts from current level):
Price may bounce from the current 1H LQ Close zone (gray).
It could rally toward the upper 1H LQ Close zone (purple) to retest it and potentially trigger Phase 2 Inducement.
🎯 First target: 1.33150
🎯 Second target: 1.33450 (just below the 4H LQ Close)
📉 Bearish Scenario (if the current zone breaks):
A clean close below 1.32500 could open the path toward the 4H LQ Close zone.
🧲 Expect potential reversal around 1.31600–1.31800 (major buy zone).
GBP/USD Buy from 2hr demand zone?This week, my analysis for GU focuses on a potential buy opportunity from the 2H demand zone. Although this zone is still quite a distance from current price action, I’m patiently waiting to see which side of liquidity gets taken first — that will help highlight a more immediate area of interest.
Given the recent bearish movement, I’m anticipating a possible break of structure to the downside, targeting the underlying Asia lows. This move could create a new supply zone, which may present a more valid setup in the short term.
However, if price maintains its current trajectory, I’m also eyeing the 13H supply zone, which would offer a strong POI for future sell opportunities after a bullish correction.
Confluences for GU Buys:
- Price is approaching a 2H demand zone.
- Market has been bearish, suggesting a correction may be due.
- DXY analysis aligns with a potential GU recovery.
- Liquidity buildup points toward a possible retracement to the 13H supply zone.
P.S. If the week starts with a bullish move, that could offer a better setup for shorts later on as price approaches the higher supply zone. Stay alert and flexible with your setups — wishing everyone a strong and disciplined trading week!

GBPUSD short to Asia's lowGBPUSD is showing bearish sentiment. We are in a downtrend for a few days now. It may reverse today with the news but until then my bias is bearish. I am taking a short to Asian session's low. Let's see if it play's out.
I normally don't like to go against the higher timeframe trend, especially in a possible reversal zone. So if you take the same trade, use less risk.
Once the market shows signs of reversal, we can ride it back up.
GBPUSD long to last day's highGBPUSD is showing signs of reversal. The bias for me for today is bullish. It experienced a retracement to the current level and is now showing bullish candles and rejections from the liquidity area. I am targeting yesterday's highs but it could go way higher than that with NFP.

GBP Gains as Tariff Risk Stays LowThe British pound rose to $1.332, near its highest level since February 2022, supported by a weaker U.S. dollar. Sterling gained 3.2% in April, its best month since November 2023. The UK is seen as less exposed to U.S. tariffs, which President Trump has delayed until July. In 2024, the U.S. ran a $12 billion goods surplus with the UK, unlike its deficits with China and the EU, reducing trade risk. The pound also benefits from expectations that the Bank of England will be more cautious than others in cutting rates. Markets expect about 85 basis points of easing this year, which is in line with the Fed. Investors now await key U.S. jobs and inflation data for dollar direction.
If GBP/USD breaks above 1.3430, the next resistance levels are 1.3500 and 1.3550. Support levels are at 1.3200, followed by 1.3050 and 1.2960.
GBPUSD H4 I Reversal Off 61.8% FiboBased on the H4 chart analysis, we can see that the price is rising toward our sell entry at 1.3361, which is a pullback resistance aligning with the 61.8% Fibo retracement.
Our take profit will be at 1.3207, a pullback support level.
The stop loss will be placed at 1.3443, a swing-high resistance level.

USD/JPY : Get Ready for another Rally! (READ THE CAPTION)By analyzing the USD/JPY chart on the daily timeframe, we can see that, as expected, the price has finally started to rise. So far, it has successfully reached the 143.5 and 144 targets, and extended up to 145.76, delivering a solid 350-pip move.
The main analysis remains valid, and I expect the price to hit the next target at 146.2 soon.
The total gain from this setup has now exceeded 570 pips, and the key upcoming supply zones are at 146.2, 148.7, and 150.
This analysis will be updated accordingly!

GBPUSD is Forming a Weekly Double Top!!!Hey Traders!
In today's session, we're closely watching GBPUSD for a potential short setup around the 1.34200 level.
The pair is currently forming a double top pattern on the weekly timeframe, a classic reversal signal. Price action is showing signs of rejection at the neckline, suggesting possible downside momentum from this key resistance zone.
Trade safe, Joe.
USD/JPY Bullish Setup with Ascending Trend line This is a 2-hour chart of USD/JPY showing a bullish setup. The price is currently respecting an ascending support trend line, indicating potential upward momentum. There are two marked resistance levels: the first target around 144 . and the second target near the 146.00– 146.50 zone . The chart suggests a bullish continuation if the price breaks above the first target zone, with the second target acting as a stronger resistance area. Ichimoku cloud support below the price also reinforces the bullish bias.
XAU/USD: High Volatility is Expected! (READ THE CAPTION)By analyzing the gold chart on the 30-minute timeframe, we can see that, as expected, the price began rising from the $3310 zone yesterday and reached $3330, delivering a 200-pip gain.
After that, selling pressure took over, and gold is now trading around $3277. Given the current market structure and today's important news events, I expect high volatility in both bullish and bearish directions.
One of the key liquidity pools likely to be targeted today lies below $3259, and before any potential drop, we may see the liquidity gap between $3288 and $3303 being filled.

Short-Term Outlook for GBPUSD Turns BearishGBPUSD formed and then broke an ascending wedge formation. The dollar appears to be gaining modest ground against key currencies globally.
Hessent noted that tariff-related news is expected by the end of today. If the incoming update involves a trade deal with a major partner like Japan, it could further support the bearish technical outlook.
If the retest of the 200-hour SMA and the broken wedge’s lower boundary fails, GBPUSD may extend its losses toward the 1.3230 level later this week.
GBPUSD INTRADAY sideways consolidaionGBP/USD maintains a bullish bias, with the broader trend and structure supporting upside continuation. The recent intraday move appears to be an overbought corrective pullback toward a key prior consolidation area.
Key Support: 1.3210 – aligns with the previous consolidation zone and potential bullish inflection point.
Upside Targets:
1.3435 – initial resistance level
1.3500 and 1.3580 – medium to long-term bullish targets
If price finds support at 1.3210 and forms a bullish reversal, it would confirm the continuation of the uptrend toward the mentioned resistance levels.
However, a break and daily close below 1.3210 would invalidate the bullish scenario, suggesting deeper retracement toward 1.3120, with further support at 1.3015 and 1.2980.
Conclusion
GBP/USD remains bullish above 1.3210. Look for a bounce from this level to confirm upside continuation. A daily close below 1.3210 would turn the outlook bearish, exposing lower support levels.
