GBP/USD | Quarterly Outlook Zooming out on the 3M chart, the structure speaks volumes. After years of downward pressure, the pair found footing at a major low (2021), forming a rounded base. Now we’re seeing a potential macro shift in momentum with confluence from the 0.786 Fibonacci and price edging toward that psychological 1.42 zone. 📍 Previous high? Marked. 📍 Psychological resistance? Noted. 📍 Next checkpoint? 1.4250 retest. Patience is power when you're analyzing legacy structure. Let the candles tell the story. 🔁 #GBPUSD #ForexMacroView #TechnicalAnalysis #PriceAction #QuarterlyChart #SmartMoneyPlay #TrendReversal

GBPUSD - End Of The Bullish Gravy Train?With a strong bullish rally throughout 2025, it is considered 'stupid' to bet against the trend. As the famous saying goes, 'the trend is your friend' and to a certain extent, it is true. But during the time of bullish price action, there is a minor retracement that occurs that allow smart money to buy at a lower price and a scenario like this is most likely going to play out going into the next weeks trading as I am seeing weakness across the board with Dollar Index and EURUSD. 1.32340 is my 1st point of interest

GBPUSD Trade RecapFX:GBPUSD Friday trade recap on GBPJPY. 📌 The rationale behind taking this trade was firstly, the positive GBP news for Retail Sales of actual 0.4%, greater than the -0.3% forecast. 📌 Secondly, the price tapped into the strong 4H demand zone, while also sweeping the Asian lows. 📌 The news took place on 6 am UTC, while there were no sudden spikes in price during 6 am, we can see a 30 pips price push few minutes after the news, signaling the market price reacting to the news. 📌 Price got rejected twice from the 15 minutes bearish shooting star, creating a strong short term resistance zone. 📌 Since the bias is short term bullish, I waited for a break and retest of the trendline, as soon as price failed to close below the zone, I immediately place buys. 📌 Price Eventually hit TP at a 1:2.46% risk to reward trade but closed at +1.9% to avoid the subsequent red news. 3min chart

GU-Fri-25/04/25 TDA-More consolidation incoming!Analysis done directly on the chart Nothing is easy, people make it look simple but you don't see when they struggled. Be consistent in whatever you want to do, Journal your progress so you can look back and see how far you've come. A lot of times we diminish our progress without fully realizing how much we have improved. Everyone's journey is different, try not to compare to others in a toxic way. Peace.

As the dollar's weak trend signals an endTrump's remarks and attitudes in trade negotiations have had a significant impact on the market 📈💥 His change in attitude towards the Federal Reserve Chairman first triggered investors' concerns about the Fed's policy, leading them to seek refuge in gold and causing the price of gold to rise 🏆🚀. Later, his remarks alleviated those concerns, prompting funds to flow back into dollar-denominated assets and causing the price of gold to decline from its peak levels 📉💔 In terms of trade negotiations, potential easing measures may reduce the demand for gold as a safe-haven asset ⏳ Taken together, these factors may imply that market confidence in the dollar has been somewhat restored 🌟. When signs of the end of the dollar's weak trend emerge 📊, more funds flow into dollar assets 💸. Against the backdrop of this change in the direction of capital flows, the GBPUSD has declined 😔 ⚡⚡⚡ GBPUSD ⚡⚡⚡ 🚀 Sell@1.32800 - 1.32600 🚀 TP 1.32200 - 1.32000 The market has been extremely volatile lately 📈📉 If you can't figure out the market's direction, you'll only be a cash dispenser for others 💰

UK retail sales beat forecast, pound edges lowerThe British pound has edged lower on Friday. In the European session, GBP/USD is trading at 1.3214, down 0.17% on the day. UK retail sales were a ray of sunshine in March. Monthly, retail sales rose 0.4%, beating the market estimate of -0.4% but below the revised 0.7% increase in February. Clothing sales showed strong growth as shoppers took advantage of the sunny weather. Annualized, retail sales rose 2.6% from a revised 1.8% gain in February and above the market estimate of 1.8%. This was the strongest gain in three months. The strong retail sales was a pleasant surprise but the consumer economy remains fragile. The GfK consumer confidence index deteriorated in April to -23 from -19 and below the market estimate of -22. This was the lowest level since November 2023. Consumers are concerned over the rising cost of living and worsening global trade tensions which has been fuelled by President Trump's tariffs. The GfK survey found that consumers are anxious that inflation will continue to rise due to the US tariffs. The Bank of England is following trade tensions carefully as well. On Thursday, Governor Andrew Bailey said that the BoE was "quite focused on the growth shock" for the UK from the tariffs, although he said the UK was not close to a recession. If the global trade war intensifies, it will weigh on UK growth but will also push inflation lower. President Trump's tariff policy is expected to raise inflation and consumers are anxious that inflation will rise sharply. The UoM consumer inflation expectations index jumped to 6.7% in the initial April release, up from 5.0% in March. Today's final release is expected to confirm this figure, which would mark the highest level since Nov. 1981.

GBPUSD... 4H CHART PATTERNI am suggesting a **GBP/USD short (sell) position** from **1.3299**, targeting **1.3160**. Here's a quick breakdown of that idea from a technical and risk management perspective: --- ### 📊 **Trade Summary** - **Pair**: GBP/USD - **Position**: Sell - **Entry**: 1.3299 - **Target**: 1.3160 - **Potential Profit**: 139 pips --- ### ⚠️ Key Considerations: 1. **Technical Analysis**: - Are you basing this on a break of support, resistance rejection, or a larger trend (e.g., D1 or H4)? - Any key indicators (RSI, MACD, moving averages) giving confirmation? 2. **Fundamentals**: - Any upcoming UK or US economic data? (GDP, interest rate announcements, Fed or BoE speeches?) - Market sentiment toward USD (safe haven) or GBP (risk currency)? 3. **Stop Loss**: - Are you using one? Placing it above recent highs could protect you—e.g., SL at 1.3350 (risk of ~50 pips). - Risk-to-reward ratio: approx. 1:2.8 (Good). --- ### 🛠 Example Trade Setup (MetaTrader Style) | Type | Sell (Short) | |------------|-------------------| | Entry | 1.3299 | | TP (Target)| 1.3160 | | SL (Stop) | 1.3350 (example) | | R:R | ~1:2.8 | --- If you’re live trading this, be cautious of: - **Volatility spikes** from news. - **Support levels** near 1.3200 that could slow down the move. - **Dollar strength/weakness** (watch the DXY).
