GBPJPY UPDATE!!Good day traders, I am back again with an update and this time it's on GBP/JPY. On the 1st of June I posted a setup but I mentioned that I will explain it later because I will be able to make my point clearer and easy to understand.
When this setup was posted I had that daily order block in mind, only because I needed to see it revisit the order block for the last time before price could make a run for that internal liquidity resting inside an unfilled FVG(BISI). We can also use that thought as confluence when looking for short term reversals or partial exits. Just by taking a look on the chart I posted again I will put it in the description below, you can see in the sell side of the chart we have a lot of equal lows and ICT teaches us that price looks for relative lows/equal lows and old lows.
On the daily TF price is currently inside a bearish order block and what we do not wanna see is price going over the wick of that wick of a candle that was booked on the 29th of May. We are also inside the premium zone of the wick meaning we can expect to run from there to our objectives below. As always my first objective is always the internal liquidity and that is only because that internal liquidity are my LTF | Highs/Lows.
On the 4H price is inside a balanced price range again that's in my favour meaning I have to note it. ICT teaches that we always wanna trade towards the direction where all our PD arrays are lining up and in this case, it's in the sellside, I believe we are in the starting phase of ICT's sell model.
My name is Teboho Matla but you...you don't know me yet!!

XAU/USD 09-13 June 2025 Weekly AnalysisWeekly Analysis:
Swing Structure -> Bullish.
Internal Structure -> Bullish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 16 March 2025.
In my analysis dated 27 October 2024 I mentioned (below) that price could potentially print higher-highs in order to reposition CHoCH. This is exactly how price printed. CHoCH positioning has been brought significantly closer to current price action. CHoCH positioning is denoted with a shortened blue dotted horizontal line.
The remainder of my analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 09 February 2025.
Price has printed a further bullish iBOS.
Price is currently trading within an internal low and fractal high. CHoCH positioning is denoted with a blue dashed line.
Price Action Analysis:
In my analysis dated 27 October 2024, it was noted that the first sign of a pullback would be a bearish Change of Character (CHoCH), indicated by a blue dotted line. Price's consistent upward momentum had repositioned previous CHoCH much closer to recent price levels as expected for weeks. Current CHoCH positioning is quite a distance away from price, therefore, it would be viable if price continued bullish to reposition ChOCH.
Note:
It is highly unlikely price will "crash" as many analysts are predicting. My view is this is merely a corrective wave of the primary trend.
Given the Federal Reserve's dovish policy stance alongside heightened geopolitical risks, market volatility is likely to remain elevated, influencing intraday price swings.
Price could also be driven by President Trump's policies, geopolitical moves and economic decisions which are sparking uncertainty and potential repricing of Gold.
Weekly Chart:
Daily Analysis:
Swing -> Bullish.
Internal -> Bullish.
Analysis and Bias remains the same as Analysis dated 11 May 2025.
Since my last weekly analysis price has finally printed a bearish CHoCH.
This is the first indication, but not confirmation of bearish pullback phase initiation.
Price is now trading within an established internal range.
Price should now technically trade down to either discount of 50% internal EQ, or Daily demand zone before targeting weak internal high, priced at 3,500.200.
Note:
The Federal Reserve’s continued dovish stance, coupled with escalating geopolitical uncertainties, is expected to sustain elevated market volatility, influencing both intraday and broader trend developments.
Additionally, price action may be further shaped by U.S. policy decisions, including measures enacted under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic policymaking could introduce further uncertainty, contributing to the ongoing repricing dynamics within the gold market.
Daily Chart:
H4 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 23 April 2025
Price has now printed a bearish CHoCH according to my analysis yesterday.
Price is now trading within an established internal range.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to trade down to either discount of internal 50% EQ, or H4 demand zone before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,500.200.
Note:
The Federal Reserve’s sustained dovish stance, coupled with ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, is likely to prolong heightened volatility in the gold market. Given this elevated risk environment, traders should exercise caution and recalibrate risk management strategies to navigate potential price fluctuations effectively.
Additionally, gold pricing remains sensitive to broader macroeconomic developments, including policy decisions under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic directives could further amplify uncertainty, contributing to market repricing dynamics.
H4 Chart:
NQ tumbles?Good day traders, I don't know why but I get a bit scared when it comes to analyzing NQ. I always doubt myself with it.
On the weekly TF price is trading inside an order block and for the past two weeks price has visited the order block two times. In the two times that price revisited the order block it failed to close above the midpoint indicating the strength of the order block, going into the new week I am going to use the discount zone of the OB+ as my resistance.
On the daily TF before I say much, THERE IS A GAP, and price did not trade to it since opening high on the 12th May. That gap is my target and I want to see price go and fill that volume imbalance as ICT calls it.
Still on the daily TF...when you read price for past two weeks on NQ, you'll quickly come to a realization that price has been expanding higher since Tuesday 3rd June, but expanding to where?...well liquidity resting above the high of the candle booked on the 29th of May.
Now on the 4 hour TF things are opening up and price is becoming clearer and it goes to show the importance of multi time frame analysis. The lows of Tuesday and Thursday make the relative equal lows that are shown on the chart. The internal liquidity shown below is my short term target or TP1. The red triangle represents that 4H inverse FVG and once price is trading below the inverse any movement inside that inverse should show weakness!
GOLD 4HLocal range near top of broader sideways (gray lines = local range).
Seller broke down from it.
Price now in buyer zone — possible buyer reaction. Just below: a gap.
Seller targets: 3271, 3245.
Conservative shorts: watch for buyer activity + seller defending local range breakout (3333).
Note: buyer initiative still active on daily TF (!).
For longs, better to wait near 3245–3271 and look for bullish patterns.
This analysis is based on the Initiative Analysis concept (IA).
Wishing you profitable trades!

Bitcoin plummets!!Good day traders, I am back with yet another update on BTC/USD. My last update on bitcoin what I was expecting price to do unfortunately did not happen as price was very weak, I had a FVG(SIBI) that I really wanted price to revisit and the two price levels that make up the SIBI are 107752 and 107149.
Now that both our sellside liquidity were taken does that mean price is now gonna look for the buyside liquidity? My honest opinion is I don't think because I said 97k is insight and I believe it can still happen and it will according to my HTF perspective.
On the daily TF we have clear sight of relative highs that we wanna see price take and that might happen today but my short term objective is the high that was booked on Tuesday. That Tuesday's candlestick has a very large wick and from my time learning with ICT's content, wicks contain a lot of price data that can be used either for entries or exits.
4H- Here we had a shift in market structure lower on Thursday but price has been bullish ever since the shift happened. On this respective TF we have equal highs too, and ICT teaches us to always focus our attention on them mainly because price looks for liquidity and imbalances on the 4 hour TF...should we look closely on the left of our screens or chart, there is an order block from the wick I mentioned above. Again what are the rules of an order block?..
FROM TOMORROW PRICE WILL START TO PLUMMET!!

XRP Back on the MENU! XRPUSD Ripple next move? XrpUsdtIt's been a while since we looked at this chart.
🌍 SeekingPips 🌎 View remains the same and so we are strictly looking for strategic LONG entry points in
TIME & PRICE. 👌
Yes it's a WEEKLY chart and I understand that many of the trigger happy TRADERS or in some cases GAMBLERS can't stand to look at anything longer than a 30 minute chart BUT really sometimes you really just have to STEP RIGHT BACK to see the BIGGER PICTURE👍
✅️This week's candle CLOSE really has the potential to setup the next few weeks for easy MULTIDAY TRENDING MOVE TRADE SETUPS 👍
ℹ️ Note the price location on what we viewed as a HTF FLAG MANY WEEKS AGO .
Yes it was breached both sides but 🌎SeekingPips🌍 doesn't trade the patterns themselves but the HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY AROUND THESE PATTERNS.🤔
ℹ️ Note where most of the volume has been trading and also note the moves around the extreems of the dead patteren too.💡
In an even higher TIMEFRAME THE FLAG would still be valid and forming the flag itself too.
📊 [ b]CHECKOUT the MONTHLY chart for the example. 📉
Anyway we will see what the next 48 hours🕦 hold but no doubt this one is on our RADAR this week.
✴️ 2.048 to hold otherwise a potential for current low of this year to be tested.
✴️ Alternatively if support starts to form on the 240min chart at current levels last weeks high could expected to be tested
✴️ if so Xrp could easily give a multiday upside trending move.
Now like a NINJA we wait and stalk...
As always ladies and gentlemen whilst Seeking Pips 🌍 SeekingPips 🌎 says

👍 Have a GREAT WEEK and we will see you soon with an UPDATE...

XRPUSD SCALPING XRPUSD – Scalp Setup: Buy Into Sell (AUTH Liquidity Framework)
XRPUSD is presenting a two-phase scalp opportunity based on liquidity behavior — first a buy-side reaction, followed by a sell-off from premium liquidity.
🔹 Buy Phase – Liquidity Rebound Setup
Price has swept a key sell-side liquidity pocket below recent equal lows, triggering a reactive move.
• Buy Entry: After lower timeframe confirmation (M5–M15 bullish shift)
• Target: Short-term rally toward internal highs where buy-side liquidity rests
• Exit Zone: Prior to major resistance or supply zone to secure profits
🔹 Sell Phase – Reversal From Overhead Liquidity
Once internal highs are cleared and liquidity is taken, a reversal setup forms.
• Sell Entry: Upon rejection from premium zone or after liquidity sweep above key highs
• Confirmation: Bearish structure shift or strong rejection wick
• Target: Value area retrace or inefficiency fill toward lower structure

BTCUSD SELLSBTCUSD – Clean Sell Setup (AUTH Liquidity-Based)
BTCUSD is approaching a high-probability short zone after a strong retracement into overhead liquidity. Based on AUTH (Areas of Liquidity Trading), this setup identifies key zones where liquidity is likely to be collected before a potential drop.
Setup Breakdown:
FTA – First Trouble Area:
A nearby reaction zone just below current price. This may cause a temporary bounce or slowdown in the bearish move but is not the main target.
Inversion Point:
A previously significant support level that has been broken and now acts as resistance. This level may trap late buyers and provide fuel for continuation lower.
VAL – Value Area Low:
The lower edge of a past consolidation range. Price often gravitates here during rebalancing moves and it acts as a realistic profit target.
AUTH Liquidity Zones:
• Above price: Resting buy stops above recent highs and engineered wicks — a common area for stop-hunt reversals.
• Below price: Clean equal lows, unfilled imbalances, and trendline supports — ideal targets for institutional-level downside expansion.
Trade Plan:
Wait for upper liquidity to be swept and monitor for lower timeframe confirmation (e.g. bearish engulfing, break of structure) before entering. Focus is on entering after liquidity is triggered — not before.

ETHUSDETHUSD – Bearish Sell Setup (AUTH Liquidity Model)
ETHUSD is currently in a retracement phase after rejecting from a recent high. Price action is approaching a zone rich in overhead liquidity, offering a clean short opportunity based on AUTH (Areas of Liquidity) principles.
⸻
Key Elements of the Setup:
FTA – First Trouble Area:
A minor demand zone just below current price where a short-term reaction could occur. This is not the main target, but a potential bounce point.
Inversion Point:
A previously supportive level that now acts as resistance. Often, this is where trapped buyers from earlier rallies exit, fueling momentum for further downside.
VAL – Value Area Low:
A historically high-volume area where price previously consolidated. It often acts as a target for rebalancing moves.
AUTH Liquidity Zones:
• Above price: Stacked buy stops above recent highs and wick clusters
• Below price: Sell-side liquidity in the form of equal lows, trendline bounces, and inefficient zones
The setup anticipates a sweep of upper liquidity before a drop into deeper value.
⸻
Execution Idea:
The setup favors a short entry after liquidity above is cleared and bearish confirmation prints on a lower timeframe. The goal is to enter after price rejects from high liquidity and begins targeting value and imbalance zones below.

Could AAPL Breakout Soon...Symmetrical Triangle Setup...Pre-WWDCAAPL is forming a symmetrical triangle on the 4H chart, setting up for a potential breakout. This neutral pattern, with converging trendlines, signals consolidation before a big move. The upper trendline (resistance) is near $207, and the lower trendline (support) is around $200, with the current price at $205. RSI is neutral at 50, and volume is decreasing—classic signs of an imminent breakout.
Fundamental Catalyst: WWDC next week could be a game-changer, with potential AI updates (think “Apple Intelligence” enhancements). Positive news could fuel a bullish breakout, while a “sell the news” reaction might trigger a downside move.
Why I Think Gold Will Sell Today...Technical AnalysisHey Rich Friends,
Happy Tuesday! I wanted to share my Gold analysis and why I think it will sell. This is only a technical analysis so please check the news and cross-reference your own charts. Here is what I am looking at:
- There was a break of structure on H1 and previous support was retested as resistance.
- Bearish confluence on additional time frames: D, H4 and M15
- The stoch is facing down, both lines have crossed below 20, slow line (orange) is above the fast line (blue) which is a bearish confirmation for me.
Additional information:
- I would set sell stops to catch the momentum going down
- I will be setting sell stops and using previous highs as my SL and previous lows as my TPs.
- Focus on closing the gap from last week
Good luck if you decide to take this trade, let me know how it goes.
Peace and Profits,
Cha
