GBPUSD: Potential Bearish accelerated by Tarrifs Watching GBPUSD closely at the 1.2970 level where we're seeing significant resistance. The high-volume node at 1.293 on the VRVP indicator suggests this is a key battleground. Key observations: - EURUSD vs GBPUSD divergence (unusual strength in GBP) - Early MACD bearish signals on daily - Price testing major liquidity zone (1.293-1.297) From a fundamental perspective, BoE hawkishness has supported GBP, but underlying UK economic data doesn't justify continued outperformance.

GBPUSD BUY TRADE PLAN V2Last plan got invalidated before any sort of confirmation. RE-ENTRY PLAN (Conditional Activation) 📅 Date: April 4, 2025 🔒 Format: Institutional Swing Reversal Blueprint 🔖 Plan Type: Re-Entry Plan (After SL Sweep Liquidity Trap) 📈 Bias & Trade Type: Bullish Reversal – Continuation From Liquidity Sweep Base 🔰 Confidence Level: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (80%) Reasons / Confluences: – Sweep of prior SL below 1.2915 – D1 bullish trend still intact (no CHoCH or HTF break) – Deeper H4 OB + 61.8% retracement in play – Wick rejection + potential inducement flush – USD macro pressure remains post tariffs 📌 Status: 🔄 Pending Activation 📍 Entry Zones (Highlighted): 🟧 BUY Re-Entry Zone: 1.2880 – 1.2905 (Deeper liquidity pocket + H4 demand base + Fib confluence + final clean imbalance) ❗ Stop Loss: 🔻 1.2845 (Placed just below last structural OB & invalidation of bullish scenario) 🎯 Take Profits: 🎯 TP1: 1.2965 🎯 TP2: 1.3025 🎯 TP3: 1.3110 📏 Risk:Reward: Approx. 1:2.5 – 1:3.8, depending on entry confirmation wick 🧠 Management Strategy: • Risk only if H1 or M30 confirms (engulfing / strong pin bar / trap wick) • SL to BE at TP1 • Trail remainder above TP2 or manually close if reaction is weak • Exit fully if price fails to reclaim 1.2965 quickly after entry ⚠️ Confirmation Criteria: • H1 bullish engulfing inside 1.2880–1.2905 • OR pin bar with strong volume wick rejection • Volume divergence / spike from sweep lows • Price reclaim of 1.2940 → added confirmation ⏳ Validity: 24–48 hrs only (structure-sensitive re-entry zone) 🌐 Fundamentals: • GBP remains fundamentally strong • USD remains vulnerable after macro trade war tensions • No major high-impact GBP data for next session = clean entry window 📋 Final Summary: This re-entry plan will be valid after price hit original SL (1.2915 - already done!), then tap into 1.2880–1.2905 zone and gives bullish confirmation. We treat it as a liquidity sweep trap → smart money re-engagement opportunity. No early entries. Confirmation is key.

Price Context Current Price: 1.28987 Trend: Price has broken market structure to the downside, suggesting a potential shift from bullish to bearish. Key Indicator Levels: EMA 30 (Red): 1.29948 – now acting as dynamic resistance.

Plan: Price is expected to retrace up into this FVG before continuing lower. 🔻 Target Zone – Demand Area Location: Around 1.27396 Labeled: “target point EA” Significance: This area is projected as the final bearish target, likely aligning with equal lows or liquidity zones. CHoCH (Change of Character) Visible at the structure break, confirming bearish intent and a shift in momentum. 🧠 Projected Price Action (In Blue Arrows) A potential retracement to the FVG zone. Rejection from this zone. Continuation to the downside through intermediate pullbacks.
