UPDATED ANALYSIS AND PROFITS ON GBP/USDGBP/USD 1H - How we getting on folks, sorry for my absence yesterday I was stuck in London and had some things to deal with this morning, nevertheless we are here now with some updated analysis. As you can see price played straight into our hands from this Sunday Sessions video, trading us down and into the Demand Zone I highlighted as an area for us to buy in from. Price did go on to profit well for us. Moving forward I am wanting to see some bearish structure being put into this market and the reason for this is because we have now had a break in structure to the downside. As we know a break suggests a reversal in trend, so in this instance it would be bullish structure to bearish structure, I have gone ahead and marked out an area of interest I feel price may pullback into, giving us the opportunity to enter in short.

Selling opportunity for GBPUSD!Based on the chart, price reached a resistance area that I previously considered for bigger timeframe and the reaction of price to this area is visible. So I considered this rejection of price and making new lower lows as changing the trend to bearish (in 15min chart ). Also risk/reward of this opportunity is around 1/4 which is considerable and I prefer to try it. how ever please pay attention to the news ( Durable goods orders ) that can effect on the chart.

Effect of deepseek AI on the GBPUSD and EURUSDMarket Sentiment: The introduction of DeepSeek yesterday led to a loss almost a 1Trillion in the tech industry, which might lead to investments in the dollar as a safe haven. Surprisingly today the tech stocks like nvidia, nasdaq have been recovering today. This might mean it was not exactly a panic sell off but we'll be monitoring the other news releases. Recent Movement: Yesterday (Monday) pushed higher due to the DeepSeek selloff. Asian Session: Lows have been swept, indicating potential bullish momentum. Correlation: EUR/USD is positively correlated and has come back to the POI BISI, which was not balanced yesterday. SMT Divergence: The pair has formed an SMT divergence (lower low on EUR/USD, higher high on GBP/USD). Entry: @1.24444 Targets: Looking to long GBP/USD targeting Asia's high and ultimately Monday's high. NB: Every trade is a probability so following the trading plan and a sound risk management will protect your mental capital whether you win or lose.

more bull runs to come, theres never the perfect entryafter my last post i had to recoup my analysis on chart work thinking price was going to go lower last week when in fact it was ready to go into previous sought out target 1.24500. i was expecting the perfect entry and that costed me a great opportunity. Lesson here is when price is retracing into a impulse move dont expect the perfect entry and if its the real directional bias then price shouldnt reverse at all anyway once running into new highs. I am now expecting a bearing sweep into last friday low and thursday high 1.23500 level after price traded into a bearish ob i have marked to the left.

GBPUSD TRADE IDEA The GBPUSD pair has been consolidating below the 1.25 level in recent days, suggesting indecision and potential for a breakout in either direction. Key resistance levels are observed at 1.26381, 1.25808, and 1.25363, forming potential supply zones. Key support is found at 1.24368, 1.23000, and 1.21137. The descending channel pattern is still visible, but the price is currently testing the lower boundary of the channel. A break below this support level could signal a continuation of the downtrend. A short entry could be triggered upon a break below the 1.24368 support level or a retest of a supply zone. A stop-loss order could be placed above a recent swing high or the 1.25000 level. The profit target could be set at the 1.23000 support level or the lower boundary of a demand zone. Fundamental factors such as a strong US dollar and concerns about the UK economy could further favor a short trade on GBPUSD. However, the market is currently consolidating, and a breakout in either direction is possible. It is crucial to conduct thorough research, consult with a financial advisor, and implement proper risk management strategies before entering any trade.
