GBPUSD POTENTIAL SHORT OPPORTUNITYHello Everyone!
How are you all?
GbpUsd is a pair to watch this week, because it is shaping up very nicely for a bearish trend reversal that we can capitalize on.
So, I will be looking for a bearish reversal because of the following reasons:
1. On the HTF, the price come to the VA.
2. The price has formed a reversal structure.
3. The price has approached the value area structurally.
Game Plan:
If the price rejects at the VA and makes a bearish impulse followed by a 15mins flag with two highs and lows.
Entry : will look for a risk sell entry within the flag or a reduced risk entry on the breakout of the flag.

Short-Term GBPUSD Short This Shorting opportunity could also be an opportunity for an entry for a longer term hold.
GBPUSD on the move for a longer term sell so we are looking for opportunities to ride the wave down.
- FVG at 0.79 fib level as point of entry
- Asian range highs are taken out
- Previous liquidity has to be taken out
- Targeting the previous low
Gbp/Usd (Wedge) Intraday Analysis The GBP/USD pair on the M30 timeframe presents a potential selling opportunity due to a recent downward breakout from a well-defined Wedge pattern. This suggests a shift in momentum towards the downside in the coming Hours.
Key Points:
Sell Entry: Consider entering a short position around the current price of 1.2806, positioned close to the breakout level. This offers an entry point near the perceived shift in momentum.
Target Levels:
1st Support – 1.2763
2nd Support – 1.2735
Stop-Loss: To manage risk, place a stop-loss order above 1.2850. This helps limit potential losses if the price unexpectedly reverses and breaks back upwards.
Thank you.
GBPUSD Weekly PlanI was waiting to see how GBPUSD was moving in the previous days before posting this setup. I expect a major correction on the cable, but probably we are going a bit higher now. My personal plan (don't follow me, it's risky) is to long now with a tight stop at 1.2795, target the local highs at 1.284 and wait for a reversal setup. Powell speech today, and this could give us a fake pump. I expect a retracement till the 1.2700 area, that is a strong daily supply zone and here i will open a strong buy position
GBPUSDThe GBP/USD pair is exhibiting a bearish trend on the daily timeframe, forming a symmetrical triangle. The completion of the Elliott Wave 4 at the resistance trendline, coupled with the formation of a double top, suggests a potential move towards the Elliott Wave 5 on the bearish side. This confluence of patterns indicates a strong likelihood of further downside movement.

GBP/USD Sell to Buy idea from 1.28400 down to 1.27600While GU buys are more favourable overall, as day traders, we will focus on nearby opportunities. This week, sells look promising at the 2-hour supply zone, where I expect a bearish reaction. This is a small move intended to trigger a retracement back down towards the 18-hour demand zone.
Once the 18-hour demand zone is mitigated, I will look to take buys. If price falls through this demand zone, the more ideal zones are the 9-hour or 8-hour demand. Overall, I am bullish as price is breaking structure to the upside, but a retracement is expected.
Confluences for GU Sells to Buys:
Price is very near a good 2-hour supply zone at the top of a structural point.
Imbalances below to target, as well as liquidity that needs to be taken.
Price has been very bullish and needs some correction.
Price is currently in a bullish trend, so sells to buys are favourable.
DXY is looking quite bearish as of now.
P.S. If price continues going up and breaks the 2-hour supply and structure once again, I will focus heavily on long opportunities.
GBPUSD | Perspective for the new week | Follow-upIn this video, we examine the recent performance of the GBP/USD, which closed Friday at a fresh five-week low, marking its third consecutive week of decline. The Bank of England's (BoE) recent interest rate decision did little to bolster confidence in the British pound. Meanwhile, a late-week surge in the US Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) dampened risk appetite, giving the US Dollar a lift heading into the weekend.
On Thursday, the pound and UK bond yields fell after the BoE left interest rates unchanged at 5.25%. Some policymakers noted that their decision not to cut rates was "finely balanced". Additionally, British inflation data revealed a drop to 2% in May, hitting the BoE's target for the first time since 2021. However, concerns remain over underlying price pressures, particularly in the services sector.
With positive US economic data reducing the likelihood of an early rate cut from the Federal Reserve (Fed), market sentiment shifted towards the safe-haven Greenback on Friday.
Looking ahead, UK economic data remains sparse heading into next week, leaving Sterling traders focused on next Friday’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) release. In the US, economic data releases are also limited to mid-tier reports early next week, with the US GDP update scheduled for next Thursday.

GBP/USD Advances Towards 1.2800 Amid Weak US Economic DataOn Thursday, the GBP/USD pair advanced towards the 1.2800 mark. Renewed selling pressure on the US Dollar (USD) propelled GBP/USD higher as markets reacted to disappointing macroeconomic data releases.
The ADP's monthly report indicated that payrolls in the private sector increased by 150,000 in June, falling short of the market expectation of 160,000. Additionally, the Department of Labor reported 238,000 first-time applications for unemployment benefits for the week ending June 29, up from 233,000 in the previous week.
Moreover, the ISM Services PMI fell to 48.8 in June from 53.8 in May, signaling a contraction in the service sector's business activity. The survey details revealed that the Employment Index and the Prices Paid Index declined to 46.1 and 56.3, respectively.
From a technical perspective, we anticipate a potential reversal in the supply area where we have set a pending order. Our seasonality analysis also suggests that GBP/USD typically begins a bearish trend during this period of the year, lasting until October. Therefore, we are looking for a bearish setup.

GBPUSD 1h time frameThis analysis is a combination of price action rtm and harmonic and fibo patterns... In my opinion, the dollar index has a price chat that can increase the index and cause the pound to fall...
Price can drop to 1.2579 on the fibo retracement ( 0.50 fibo )
After that, it can move up to the area of 1.2649 and drop and do 100 pips from there.
stop loss need for any position
good luck
