GBPUSD BIG DROP ?Market Structure Overview Previous Trend: Strong bullish move after a long bearish trend. Current Behavior: Price has entered a higher-timeframe supply zone (highlighted in green) and is showing signs of rejection. Supply Zones: Major Supply: 1.31750 – 1.32000 Minor Supply: 1.31000 – 1.31300 Demand Zones: First Demand Zone: ~1.30380 Second Demand Zone: ~1.29919 📉 Trade Setup & Plan 🅰️ Primary Bias: Bearish Rejection from Supply 🔹 Scenario 1: Ideal Short Setup Entry: Around current price (~1.30824) or after a retest of the 1.31000–1.31300 zone. TP1: 1.30380 (first demand zone) TP2: 1.29919 (second demand zone) TP3 (extension): Below 1.29000 if momentum continues SL: Above 1.31300 (to avoid fakeouts in supply) 🧩 Reasoning: Price failed to break above supply with strong rejection wicks. Break of structure + liquidity taken above local highs = possible start of bearish leg. 🔹 Scenario 2: Pullback Before Continuation Lower Wait for Break of 1.30380, then look for pullback entries (break & retest). Entry: On bearish confirmation after price retests 1.30380 zone from below. TP: 1.29919, and if broken, continue to trail toward 1.2900s ✅ Extra Notes Watch for rejection patterns (e.g., pin bars, engulfing candles) on the 15M or 30M to confirm entries. Avoid entries during high-impact news, especially UK or US CPI, interest rate decisions, or NFP. Manage risk wisely: Max 1-2% per trade.

GBPUSD. Weekly trading levels 14 - 18.04.2025During the week you can trade from these price levels. Finding the entry point into a transaction and its support is up to you, depending on your trading style and the development of the situation. Zones show preferred price ranges WHERE to look for an entry point into a trade. If you expect any medium-term price movements, then most likely they will start from one of the zones. Levels are valid for a week, the date is in the title. Next week I will adjust the levels based on new data and publish a new post. ! Please note that brokers have a difference in quotes, take this into account when trading. The history of level development can be seen in my previous posts. They cannot be edited or deleted. Everything is fair. :) ---------------------------------------------- I don’t play guess the direction (that’s why there are no directional arrows), but zones (levels) are used for trading. We wait for the zone to approach, watch the reaction, and enter the trade. Levels are drawn based on volumes and data from the CME. They are used as areas of interest for trading. Traded as classic support/resistance levels. We see the reaction to the rebound, we trade the rebound. We see a breakout and continue to trade on a rollback to the level. The worst option is if we revolve around the zone in a flat. Do not reverse the market at every level; if there is a trend movement, consider it as an opportunity to continue the movement. Until the price has drawn a reversal pattern. More information in my RU profile. Don't forget to like Rocket and Subscribe!!! Feedback is very important to me!

Bitcoin is not going back to 100k anytime soon!!Good day traders, back against it with this bitcoin idea I’m currently on back on what price has shown us in recent weeks. 1W- Here price is still very much bearish as we can see that the market is in an expansion meaning any idea of price moving higher is what we all wish for but price does not care so overall here we bearish and need to be ready alert to price always wanting to move higher by taking recent highs. 4H- Now here we can see price shot higher for the liquidity that was resting above the recent broken highs, keeping in mind that our weekly bias is still bearish we than wanna see a shift in structure on the 1 hour TF to give us our first confirmation of many confirmations we use to come at a decision. After price respects our idea than we wanna see price go take the equal lows(Sellside liquidity) below. Now I wanna make this bold prediction, and it’s my opinion by the way it’s not a fact or anything like that right. In my opinion I don’t think bitcoin will see 100k for the rest of 2025. And my prediction is based on my analysis only!!

Gold TA 25.4.5Hello everyone, I hope you're doing well. In the 1-hour timeframe, the price of gold has taken a downward trend and has formed two lower lows. There is a very strong order block visible on the chart, and I expect that after the price retraces to this order block, it will react and continue to move down. We will wait for the price to reach this order block, then in the 5-minute timeframe, we will take the right trades and enter a short position. Keep in mind that in higher timeframes, the market is moving upwards, so short positions carry higher risk. ⚠️ This Analysis will be updated ... 👤 Sadegh Ahmadi: GPTradersHub 📅 25.Apr.5 ⚠️(DYOR) ❤️ If you apperciate my work , Please like and comment , It Keeps me motivated to do better

GBPUSD, Is This Just a Pullback or a Full Reversal? 4/11 11:26amI’ve been closely analyzing GBP/USD, and right now, I’m assessing whether the recent drop is just a pullback within an uptrend or the start of a full reversal into bearish territory. Pullback vs. Reversal: What I’m Looking For Pullback Characteristics: A pullback is typically a short-lived dip before the trend resumes. If GBP/USD stabilizes around 1.3030–1.3050 and then rebounds, it would confirm that buyers are still in control and the overall bullish trend is intact. Moving averages (like EMA and KAMA) should continue to slope upward in that scenario. Reversal Characteristics: A full reversal happens when price breaks major support levels (like 1.2990) and shows bearish confirmation—things like a bearish engulfing candle, lower highs/lows, and negative momentum signals. If key indicators (like RSI dropping below 30 and MACD turning negative) confirm the trend shift, then sellers are fully taking control. Current Market Signs GBP/USD fell sharply from 1.314, forming an M-shape pattern that often signals trend exhaustion. If price fails to bounce near 1.3050, the likelihood of a full reversal increases. Shorter timeframe indicators (like RSI and MACD) are showing slowing momentum, which reinforces the case for further downside. My Verdict & Trade Decision I’ve decided that this is looking more like a near-term reversal rather than just a pullback. Since price keeps failing to reclaim 1.3050, the bearish pressure remains strong. If we break below 1.2990, I expect a deeper decline into a full downtrend shift. Final Trading Action Closing my trade: Given everything I’m seeing, I’m closing my current long trade now to lock in profits and avoid further downside risk. Future trade setup: If price rejects 1.3050 and starts rebounding, I’d consider re-entering long. However, if GBP/USD closes below 1.2990, I’ll switch to a short trade, targeting further downside. Happy Friday!

This downward movement reflects the continuation of the bearish trend from earlier in the week, influenced by safe-haven flows into the Japanese yen amid escalating trade tensions and weaker U.S. economic data. ​ Mitrade 📈 Current Market Structure: After a period of consolidation, the pair broke below key support levels, signaling strong selling momentum. This move comes amid concerns over the U.S. economic outlook and increased demand for the Japanese yen as a safe-haven currency. ​ 🔹 Key Resistance Levels: 143.45: The previous support level, now acting as immediate resistance. A break above this level could indicate a potential reversal.​ 145.08/145.91: A significant resistance zone. A move above this area could challenge the bearish outlook. ​ 147.85: A major resistance area, which could be a target for buyers if the bullish trend resumes. ​ FOREX24.PRO 🔸 Key Support Levels: 142.04: The low for the day, which acts as immediate support. A stay above this level may prevent further declines. ​ Mitrade 139.59: A significant support level.

Happy Friday GBPUSD! 4/11 10:12am updateMy Near-Term Views Fundamental Context: The UK data mixed signals (with a stronger-than-expected GDP but a much-worse trade balance) juxtapose with softer US indicators (a negative PPI and lower consumer sentiment). Although these fundamentals create some uncertainty, they suggest that sterling might face headwinds if worsening trade data weighs on expectations. That said, the market’s reaction tends to be volatile, and right now, investors are digesting the news. Technical Perspective: With the price currently at 1.3100, I see that GBP/USD has moved well above many short-term dynamic supports: Dynamic Support: My HT_TRENDLINE on lower timeframes is positioned around 1.310–1.311 (on the 1‑minute, for example) but drops quickly on longer timeframes, indicating that although the current move is strong, it might be overextended relative to longer-term supports. Momentum Signals: Some momentum indicators (like the StochRSI on very short-term charts) are spiking, which suggests that we've gone into overbought territory—raising the possibility of a near-term correction. Support and Resistance Zones: Support: I’m looking at a near-term support zone roughly around 1.3050–1.3080. This zone is where I expect buyers to step in should the current move lose steam—especially if negative price action or bearish patterns begin to appear in the lower timeframes. Resistance: On the upside, resistance seems to be forming in the 1.3150–1.3200 range. Here, sellers might step in, or profit-taking could occur. In particular, the monthly indicators and previous highs cluster somewhere near 1.3195–1.3220, which would serve as a barrier if the bulls try to push higher. My Action Plan: Based on everything, my bias for the near future is cautious—even though the fundamental situation isn’t definitively bearish, the technical picture is showing signs of overextension. If price starts trading down from 1.3100 and witnesses a clear bearish reversal pattern (like a bearish engulfing or a pin bar on a short timeframe), I'll consider that as a signal that the buyers are tiring and a pullback is underway. In that case, I might target a drop down toward the support zone (around 1.3050 or even lower) while keeping a close eye on the resistance above to avoid missing a breakout. In short, while I'm still respectful of the underlying bullish fundamentals on GBP, the near-term technical signals indicate the pair might be overextended at 1.3100. This sets up a scenario where if the price can’t push past 1.3150–1.3200 with conviction, I’d expect a pullback to zone 1.3050 or below. The coming minutes and hours will be crucial to see whether a reversal pattern forms or if bullish momentum carries the pair to new highs.

British pound keeps rolling as UK GDP shinesThe British pound is up sharply on Friday, extending its rally for a fourth straight day. In the European session, GBP/USD is trading at 1.3088, up 0.94% on the day. The pound has surged 2.9% since Monday. UK GDP higher than expected February with a gain of 0.5% m/m. This followed a revised 0% reading in January and beat the market estimate of 0.1%. This was the fastest pace of growth since March 2024. Services, manufacturing and construction all recorded gains. For the three months to January, GDP expanded 0.6%, above the revised 0.3% gain in January and higher than the market estimate of 0.4%. The strong GDP data is welcome news amid all the uncertainty created by US President Trump's tariff policy. The UK's largest trading partner is the US and the 10% tariffs on UK products will hurt the UK export sector (Trump has suspended an additional 10% tariff for 90 days). Bank of England expected to lower rates in May The turmoil in the financial markets and escalating trade tensions has the Bank of England worried. The markets have priced in a rate cut in May, betting that the BoE will ease policy in order to support the weak economy, even with inflation above the 2% target. The BoE kept rates unchanged in March and meets next on May 8. The US-China trade war rose up a notch on Friday, as China announced it would raise tariffs on US goods to 125% from 84%. This move was in response to the US lifting tariffs on China by 125% this week, for a total tariff rate at 145%. The trade war will dampen China's economy and Goldman Sachs has lowered its 2025 GDP forecast for China to 4.0% from 4.5%.

Gold Closes the Week Strong – Breakout Toward $3300 Coming?📊 XAU/USD Daily Technical Outlook – April 11, 2025 Gold rebounded strongly during Friday’s session, climbing from early lows around $3,177 to reach a high of $3,237. This bounce followed a brief correction the day before, as buyers stepped back in near key psychological levels. The move was partially driven by ongoing geopolitical tensions and renewed demand for safe-haven assets. At the moment, gold is trading around $3,212, holding its gains firmly into the weekly close. The broader market remains bullish, with the uptrend still intact unless key supports are breached. 📈 Current Market Structure: After Thursday’s pullback, Friday’s strong bullish candle suggests renewed momentum. Price is still moving within an ascending structure, and the sharp recovery could be an early signal of a continuation toward new highs. 🔹 Key Resistance Levels: $3,237: Immediate resistance. Friday’s high. A break above this level could trigger further bullish continuation. $3,280: Potential upside target if momentum continues. $3,300: Psychological resistance and potential long-term target. 🔸 Key Support Levels: $3,177: Intraday support. If gold pulls back again, this level may provide a bounce. $3,150: Near-term support and a key structural level. $3,095: Deeper support, marking the bottom of the previous breakout area. 📐 Price Action Patterns: Friday's bullish engulfing candle signals strong buying pressure, especially after Thursday’s correction. If buyers defend current levels early next week, we may see a bullish continuation. However, failure to break $3,237 may trigger another consolidation phase. 🧭 Potential Scenarios: ✅ Bullish Scenario: If gold breaks and holds above $3,237, this could trigger a move toward $3,280 or even $3,300. Buyers remain in control as long as price stays above $3,177. ❌ Bearish Scenario: If gold fails to push above resistance and breaks below $3,177, we could see a retest of $3,150, and possibly deeper toward $3,095 if bearish momentum increases. 📌 Conclusion: Gold showed resilience on April 11, recovering sharply from a brief dip and closing the week on a strong note. The market structure remains bullish, and a sustained break above resistance could lead to fresh all-time highs.

GBP/USD 4H: Breakdown Brewing? Key Levels for Short Entries!GBP/USD 4-Hour Analysis Technical Outlook — 11 April 2025 Current Market Condition: GBP/USD on the 4-hour timeframe is showing signs of a potential short-term bounce as it trades around 1.3100. The price has recently moved above the 50-period EMA, indicating short-term bullish momentum, however nearing a death cross of 50EMA to 200MA. This will confirm bearish momentum. Key Technical Highlights: Price Action: The price has rallied from a recent low around 1.2700 and is now trading near 1.3100, above the 50-period EMA and 200 MA, signaling potential short-term buying interest. Support and Resistance: Resistance: Key resistance levels are identified at 1.3200 and 1.3300. The 200-period MA near 1.3150-1.3200 adds confluence to the first resistance zone. Support: Key support levels below the current price are at 1.2900, 1.2700, and 1.2600, with 1.2900 being the nearest significant support. Momentum Indicator: The stochastic oscillator at the bottom is heading in overbought territory signalling exhaustion. Possible Scenarios: Bearish Scenario (Higher Probability): If the price fails to break above resistance level around 1.3150-1.3200 and shows a rejection (e.g., a bearish candlestick pattern like a shooting star), the bearish bias is likely to persist. A drop below the 50-period EMA and the recent swing low at 1.2900 could lead to further declines toward the 1.2700 support, with deeper support at 1.2600. Bullish Scenario (Moderate Probability): If the price sustains above the 50-period EMA and breaks through the resistance level of 1.3200 with a strong 4-hour candlestick close, it could signal a short-term bullish move. A confirmed break above 1.3200 may lead to a test of the next resistance at 1.3400, supported by the upward momentum in the oscillator.

Pound Gains on Dollar Softening, GBP/USD at $1.30The pound extended gains to $1.30 for a third session, as the dollar softened following Trump’s 90-day tariff pause for most countries. However, the 145% hike on Chinese goods kept risks elevated. While volatility persists, traders now expect 66 bps of BoE rate cuts this year, down from 79 bps a day earlier. UK GDP is forecast to grow 0.1% in February, suggesting a slow recovery. If GBP/USD breaks above 1.3050, resistance levels are at 1.3100 and 1.3200. Support is at 1.2960, followed by 1.2900 and 1.2850.
