GBPUSD BUY TRADE PLAN🧭 GBPUSD SWING TRADE PLAN 📅 Date: April 4, 2025 🔒 Format: Institutional Swing Blueprint 🔖 Plan Type: Reversal to Continuation 📈 Bias & Trade Type: Bullish (Trend Continuation After Pullback) 🔰 Confidence Level: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (80%) Why? • W1 bullish breakout structure and HTF trend support • D1 bullish continuation leg, large liquidity sweep on Friday • H4 breaker block + imbalance filled • H1 strong reaction wick off bullish order block • USD weakness post macro shock (tariff-induced sell-off) 📌 Status: PRE-TRADE (Active Setup, Awaiting Confirmation) 📍 Entry Zones: 🟩 Primary Buy Zone: 1.2975 – 1.2995 (Overlap of H4 OB, H1 FVG base, discount zone) 🟨 Secondary Buy Zone (Deeper Tap): 1.2940 – 1.2955 (H1 bullish rejection base + 61.8% Fib + Volume cluster) ❗ Stop Loss: 🔻 1.2915 (Below deeper OB + invalidation of last bullish candle wick base) 🎯 Take Profits: 🎯 TP1: 1.3075 🎯 TP2: 1.3135 🎯 TP3: 1.3220 📏 Risk:Reward Approx. 1:2.5 – 1:3.5, depending on execution and confirmation 🧠 Management Strategy: • Enter only on bullish confirmation candle (e.g., engulfing / wick rejections) • SL to BE at TP1 • Partials at TP2, full close or trail beyond TP3 • If price drops below 1.2915 cleanly → stand down, wait for new setup ⚠️ Confirmation Criteria: • Bullish engulfing or strong wick rejection from buy zone • Volume spike near zone lows • Break of H1 internal structure back toward 1.3020+ ⏳ Validity: 48 hours from NY open 🌐 Fundamentals: • GBP strength continues with macro resilience • USD sentiment remains fragile post tariff tensions • BoE remains neutral/hawkish, Fed uncertainty rises 📋 Final Summary: GBPUSD remains in a macro bullish structure. The recent pullback was sharp but orderly. If the primary or secondary buy zone holds, this presents a high-probability continuation leg. We will treat this as a trend-protected pullback buy opportunity.

Cable erases most post-tariff gainsCable reached six-month intraday highs even above $1.32 on 3 April after the American government announced sweeping new tariffs and panicked many investors and traders. Now, though, most of these have been reversed after an unusually better than expected job report from the USA. Politically, sterling seems to be among the less vulnerable currencies now since the UK was hit by only 10% new tariffs and hasn’t responded with any on the USA amid the Prime Minister’s call for ‘cool and calm heads’. The obvious interpretation of the chart is an extreme head and shoulders, which would suggest another bout of significant losses to come around the end of April or early May. That’s questionable now because the fundamental situation is so heated. Given the strength of the pullback from $1.32, a sustained break above there in the near future looks unlikely. $1.28 is the area of the 200 SMA and likely to be an important support, but the price might halt above there at least temporarily around the lower part of the range from March. As for gold, traders are looking ahead to American inflation on 10 April. Here though British GDP, trade and industrial data are also in focus on Friday 11 April. This is my personal opinion, not the opinion of Exness. This is not a recommendation to trade.

GBPUSD Approaching Key Resistance - Will Sellers Step In?OANDA:GBPUSD is approaching a key resistance level, marked by significant selling pressure. This area has historically acted as a key supply zone, increasing the likelihood of a bearish reaction if sellers step in again. The current market structure suggests that if the price confirms a rejection from this resistance level, there is a high probability of a downward move. I anticipate that if rejection occurs, the market may head lower toward the 1.30950 level, which serves as a logical target within the current market structure. However, a break above this resistance would invalidate the bearish bias and could lead to further upside. This setup reflects the potential for a retracement after an impulsive move, supported by the confluence of previous price behavior and the current structure. If you agree with this analysis or have additional insights, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!

DeGRAM | GBPUSD retest of the rangeGBPUSD is in an ascending channel above the trend lines. The price is declining from the upper boundary of the channel and has now moved closer to the lower boundary, testing the support level. On the 4H Timeframe, the indicators indicate the pair is oversold. The chart maintains an upward structure. We expect a rebound after a retest of the lower channel boundary. ------------------- Share your opinion in the comments and support the idea with a like. Thanks for your support!

GBP/USD Update 04/04/2025As of today, April 4, 2025, GBP/USD is experiencing a correction on the intraday timeframe, which coincides with a strong bullish reversal in the DXY (US Dollar Index). This suggests that GBP might weaken against the USD. The current price is at the 1.2980 support level, where the 200-period EMA (Exponential Moving Average) on the 1-hour chart is also being retested. At this support level, there's a higher likelihood of a pullback, with potential buyers likely to push the price back up toward the 1.3110 zone, aligning with the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level. After testing this resistance, the price could continue its downward movement, potentially retesting 1.2980 and moving further down to 1.2930. If the 1.2930 level fails to hold, a more significant bearish reversal could occur, with the price potentially dropping toward the 1.2500 zone. Keep an eye on these key levels for any confirmation of a reversal or continuation.

GBP/USD Bullish Momentum: Key Retracement Levels to WatchThe GBP/USD currency pair is exhibiting strong bullish momentum within an ascending channel. Recently, the pair established a consolidation range within this channel, with the upper boundary at 1.30149 and the lower boundary at 1.28710. Following the formation of a new high, no significant divergence has been observed, indicating the potential for a continuation of the prevailing trend. Given the current price action, a retracement may occur, potentially providing an optimal entry opportunity around the 0.5 or 0.618 Fibonacci retracement levels. Traders should closely monitor price movements and key support levels for confirmation before entering a position.
