GBP/USD Sell - 15 MinsTrading Idea: GBP/USD Sell Position Trade Overview: Entry: Near 1.26870 Take Profit (TP): 1.26400 (Key Support Zone) Stop Loss (SL): 1.27108 (Above Resistance) Risk-to-Reward Ratio: ~2.5:1 Technical Analysis: Triple Top Formation: A clear Triple Top pattern has formed near the resistance zone, signaling exhaustion in bullish momentum and a potential reversal. Rejections from 1.27100–1.27200 highlight strong seller presence. Break of Structure (BOS): Price broke below the recent support level, confirming a shift in market structure from bullish to bearish. Bearish Momentum: Price is consolidating under the resistance zone, with lower highs forming, indicating sellers are gaining control. Moving averages (likely 50 EMA and 20 EMA) appear to act as dynamic resistance. Target Support: The TP at 1.26400 aligns with a significant demand zone and prior support, making it a logical downside target.

Pound higher as Services PMI rises, job report nextThe British pound has moved higher on Monday, after declining 1% last week. In the  European session, GBP/USD is trading at 1.2747, up 0.30% on the day. The UK Services PMI rose to 51.4 in December, up from 50.8 in November, which was a 13-month low. This beat the market estimate of 51.0, but points to weak business activity as demand for UK exports has been weak and confidence among services providers remains subdued. UK manufacturing is mired in a depression, and the PMI fell to 47.3 in December, down from 48.0 in November and shy of the market estimate of 48.2. This marked the lowest level in eleven months, as production and new orders showed an accelerated decrease. The weak PMI data followed Friday's GDP report, which showed a 0.1% decline for a second straight month in October. This missed the market estimate of 0.1%. GDP rose just 0.1% in the three months to October. The UK releases employment and wage growth numbers on Tuesday. The economy is projected to have lost 12 thousand jobs in the three months to October, after a sparking 200 thousand gain in the previous report. Wages including bonuses is expected to climb to 5% from 4.8%. The Bank of England meets on Thursday and is expected to hold the cash rate at 4.75% after cutting rates by 25 basis points in November. The economy could use another rate cut but inflation remains a risk to upside, with CPI climbing in October to 2.3% from 1.7%. The BoE will be keeping a close eye on wage growth, which has been a driver of inflation. The US releases PMIs later today. Manufacturing remained in contraction territory in November at an upwardly revised 49.7 and there is optimism that the new Trump administration's protectionist stance could benefit US manufacturers. The services sector is in good shape and improved in November to 56.1, up from 55.0 in October. The uncertainty ahead of the US election is over and lower interest rates have contributed to stronger expansion in services. GBP/USD is testing resistance at 1.2638. The next resistance line is 1.2668 1.2592 and 1.2562 are the next support levels

GBP/USD on the Move – Will the Bulls Take Charge?OANDA:GBPUSD - 1Hr Chart Current Price:1.27664 Executive Summary: The price is currently trading within an ascending channel after finding support during the London session on Friday, Nov 22. A breakout above the 1.26953 level, now acting as strong support, suggests continued upward momentum toward the ultimate resistance at 1.29395, offering a potential profit of 171 pips. Detailed Analysis: After analysing the chart, we observed that the price found support during the London session on Friday, Nov 22, and has since been trading upward within an ascending channel. The resistance at 1.26953 was broken and now serves as a strong middle support or equilibrium. This level acts as a balancing point, where price often pauses, retests, or consolidates before continuing its trend. It works as a critical area of decision-making for traders, offering opportunities for price rebounds in an uptrend or potential breakdowns in case of bearish pressure. The price is expected to rise toward the ultimate resistance at 1.29395, as highlighted on the chart, with a potential profit of 171 pips. Bearish Scenario: In the bearish scenario, if significant selling pressure drives the price below the 1.26953 middle support, it could signal a potential shift in market sentiment. This middle support currently acts as a critical level, maintaining the upward momentum. A break below it may invalidate the bullish structure, leading to further declines. In such a case, the price is likely to target the next key level at the ultimate support of 1.24512. This level represents a strong foundational support where buyers might step in to stabilise the price and counteract the bearish momentum. Key Levels to Watch: • Middle Support: 1.26953 (Strong support and potential bounce level). • Ultimate Resistance: 1.29395 (Target level for upward momentum). • Ultimate Support: 1.24512 (Potential downside target if support breaks). Thank you for taking the time to read this analysis. Wishing you the best in your trading journey! Remember to always follow proper risk management strategies to ensure long-term success in the markets. Good luck with your trades!
