GBPUSD COT and Liquidity AnalysisCOT Report Analysis: We can see 6K drop in the longs. closed on the Tuesday highs, if they want to take prices higher, they will build a poosition on the lower prices. Hence, I think we will see a bearish week. Hey, what up traders, another week, another COT data and Liquidity report. This is a big part of my FX Trading. I'm always trying to trade with the Big players, so knowing their positions is a good thing. 📍Please be aware that institutions report data to the SEC on Tuesdays and data are reported on Fridays - so again, we as retail traders have a disadvantage, but there is the possibility to read between the lines. Remember, in the report is what they want you to see; that's why prices mostly reverse on Wednesday after the report, so their cards are hidden as long as possible. However, if the trend is running, you can read it and use it to your advantage. 📍Tip: If the level has confluence with the high volume on COT, it can be strong support / Resistance.

GBP/USD potential shorts back downMy analysis revolves around a possible bearish reaction from the 2‑hour supply zones. If price does respect these zones, I’ll look for a sell setup to drive price lower—though I’ll approach with caution because there’s liquidity resting just above those points of interest. Should price push downward, my next target is the 10‑hour demand zone that triggered the recent change of character. This discounted area could spark a bullish response. Confluences for GU sells are as follows: - An unmitigated 4‑hour supply zone overhead. - A “sell‑to‑buy” scenario fits: price sits closer to supply and still needs a retracement. - Imbalance and untapped liquidity lie below, inviting a move south. - Liquidity has just been swept above, leaving a clean supply zone behind. P.S. If price punches through these supply zones and breaks structure to the upside, I’ll watch for the new zone that forms—there could be a nearer‑term long opportunity from there.

GBPUSD Holds Rebound Above 1.32On the back of softer U.S. inflation data and stronger-than-expected UK figures (with GDP at 0.2% vs. 0% expected and claimant count change at 5.2k vs. 22.3k), GBPUSD held above 1.32. Bullish scenario: A clean hold above 1.3350 could push the pair toward 1.3450, with potential for new 2025 highs at 1.3750 and 1.4210, aligning with the highs of 2021. Bearish scenario: A break below 1.32 may bring support levels at 1.3150, 1.3070, and 1.2980 into view. In extreme cases, 1.27 could be tested, aligning with overbought RSI levels last seen in July 2023 and September 2024, and the long-term trendline from 2014–2021. Written by Razan Hilal, CMT

GBP/USD 4H Analysis – Bearish Bias in PlayThe market never lies, it simply reflects behaviour. And right now, the behaviour around GBP/USD suggests one thing: bearish momentum. As seen in this clean 4H chart, price failed to hold above the key horizontal resistance zone and now showing signs of weakness after a retest. I’ve marked a potential bearish projection (red arrow) based on: Key Technical Factors: Rejection from a prior structure zone Clean lower highs forming Breakdown and retest of minor support Room below toward - near 1.30300 (next yellow line) This setup aligns with a potential swing move down toward the next area. If price follows through, we could see a solid continuation to the downside in the coming sessions. Patience and discipline over prediction. Let price confirm the story it’s telling.

Pound Gains on Strong UK GDPThe British pound climbed to $1.3320 on Friday after strong UK GDP data showed the economy grew 0.7% in Q1 and 1.3% year-over-year, easing pressure on the Bank of England to cut rates aggressively. While a cut is still likely, the solid growth figures suggest urgency has diminished. At the same time, a softer U.S. dollar, driven by speculation that the U.S. may be allowing depreciation to support exports, has supported sterling. However, the UK’s broader outlook remains mixed, with rising unemployment and slowing wage growth signaling uneven momentum. GBP/USD faces resistance at 1.3350, with additional levels at 1.3450 and 1.3550. Support levels are at 1.3160, 1.3000, and 1.2960.
