GBP/USD Longs from 1.28900 back up to 1.30000I’m looking for long opportunities around the 5-hour demand zone, aiming to take price back up to the 6-hour supply zone, where I will then look for potential sell setups. Since price is currently positioned between these key levels, I will wait to see where it starts to slow down and how it reacts. Ideally, I want to see accumulation in the demand zone and distribution in the supply zone before making any decisions. However, overall, my bias for GU remains bullish, especially as the U.S. dollar continues to weaken. Confluences for GU Buys: - A clear 5-hour demand zone presents a potential buying opportunity. - Liquidity remains to the upside, which price may target before a reversal. - DXY has shifted bearish, indicating a potential bullish move for GBP/USD. - Price has been consistently bullish on the higher timeframe over the past few weeks. Note: If price breaks below the nearby demand zone, I will expect a temporary bearish trend to form.

GBP/USD: Tariffs & Retail Shift the ScalesThe GBP/USD slightly rose to 1.2965 during the Asian trading session on Monday this week, with an increase of 0.21%. The US dollar failed to make an effective rebound amidst several consecutive days of downward pressure. US President Donald Trump announced the imposition of a 25% tariff on imported automobiles and light trucks, and this measure will come into effect on April 3rd. The market is concerned that this measure may drive up inflation and dampen economic growth, thus dragging down the US dollar and causing it to weaken. Trump's trade policies may also limit the room for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, further pressuring the US dollar. On the other hand, the UK's retail sales data for February exceeded market expectations, further boosting the British pound. The data shows that the UK's retail sales in February increased by 1.0% month-on-month, surpassing the market's expected decline of 0.3%. This data indicates that despite the uncertainties faced by the UK economy, consumer demand remains strong, supporting the rise of the British pound. From a technical perspective, the GBP/USD maintains an upward momentum in the short term and is currently approaching the level of 1.2965. If it breaks through this key level, it may further test the psychological barrier of 1.3000. With the weakness of the US dollar, the British pound is likely to continue to rise and challenge higher levels. GPBUSD buy@1.28800-1.29300 tp:1.29600-1.30000 I will share trading signals every day.

Starting over in trading- A short guideThe internet has made it easier than ever to learn trading for free. You have access to blogs, videos, books, podcasts, and more. Yet, most traders still fail. Why? Because there’s too much information. It’s overwhelming, confusing, and filled with conflicting advice. So, if I had to start over from scratch, here’s exactly how I’d do it—step by step. ________________________________________ Step 1: Master Risk Management No matter what type of trader you become—day trader, swing trader, options trader, quantitative trader, etc.—risk management is the foundation of long-term success. It’s also one of the easiest things to master, and once you do, it will pay off for the rest of your trading career. Risk Management Essentials: ✅ Never risk more than 1-2% of your account per trade. ✅ Always use stop losses to protect your capital. ✅ Focus on risk-to-reward ratios (aim for at least 1:2 or better). ✅ Manage position sizing properly to avoid blowing up your account. Once you understand how to protect your capital, it’s time to expose yourself to the trading world. ________________________________________ Step 2: Learn & Explore Different Trading Styles When you're just starting, you don’t know what you don’t know. Your goal at this stage is to explore different trading strategies, tools, and methods. What to Learn: 🔹 Candlestick patterns & price action 🔹 Indicators (moving averages, RSI , MACD , etc.) 🔹 Chart patterns (head & shoulders, triangles, etc.) 🔹 Market structures (support/resistance, trends, ranges) 🔹 Different trading styles (day trading, swing trading, scalping, momentum trading, etc.) Mindset for This Phase: 🚀 Keep an open mind—don’t judge strategies too early. 🚀 Focus on learning rather than making money right away. 🚀 Accept that not everything will work for you—and that’s okay. At this stage, your goal is not to become an expert in everything but to discover what resonates with you. ________________________________________ Step 3: Pick ONE Strategy & Go Deep After exploring different strategies, you need to commit to ONE. This eliminates information overload and allows you to focus on mastering a single trading method. How to Choose a Strategy: 🔹 Does it fit your personality? (e.g., If you hate fast decision-making, avoid scalping.) 🔹 Does it match your lifestyle? (e.g., If you have a full-time job, swing trading might be better than day trading.) 🔹 Can you understand the logic behind it? (A good strategy should be simple, not overly complicated.) Example: Mean Reversion Strategy in Stocks • Identify stocks in an uptrend 📈 • Wait for a pullback (price moves lower) • Enter when the stock shows signs of resuming the trend • Sell on the next rally By focusing on one strategy, you eliminate confusion and make faster progress. ________________________________________ Step 4: Create & Refine Your Trading Plan Now that you have a strategy, it’s time to turn it into a structured trading plan. Your trading plan should include: ✅ Market Conditions – When will you trade? Trending or ranging markets? ✅ Entry Rules – What signals will you use to enter a trade? ✅ Exit Rules – When will you take profits or cut losses? ✅ Risk Management – How much will you risk per trade? 💡 Example Trading Plan (Momentum Trading): • Market: Trade only in strong uptrends. • Entry: Buy when the price breaks above a key resistance level. • Exit: Take profit at 2x risk, cut losses at a 1x risk. • Risk Management: Risk only 1% of the account per trade. A clear, structured plan removes emotion from trading and keeps you disciplined. ________________________________________ Step 5: Test Your Strategy (Before Risking Real Money) You never know if a strategy works until you test it. How to Test a Trading Strategy: 🔹 Backtesting – Analyze past data to see if the strategy has worked historically. 🔹 Forward Testing (Paper Trading) – Trade in a demo account without real money. What You’ll Learn from Testing: ✔️ Does the strategy make money over time? ✔️ How often does it win vs. lose? ✔️ How big are the drawdowns? ✔️ Does it match your risk tolerance? If the strategy performs well in testing, you now have a solid foundation to trade with real money. If it doesn’t work, tweak and improve it—this is part of the process. ________________________________________ Final Thoughts: The Key to Long-Term Success Starting over isn’t about finding the “perfect” system —it’s about following a structured approach. Here’s the Path to Trading Success: 1️⃣ Master Risk Management – Protect your capital first. 2️⃣ Learn & Explore – Understand different strategies & tools. 3️⃣ Pick ONE Strategy – Focus on a proven method. 4️⃣ Create a Trading Plan – Define your rules clearly. 5️⃣ Test & Improve – Validate your strategy before going live. 🔥 Bonus Tip: Trading success is 80% psychology and 20% strategy. Stay patient, disciplined, and treat trading like a business—not a get-rich-quick scheme.

GBP/USD Trend Before and After Tariff Announcement✍ ✍ ✍ GBP/USD news: ➡️ The US dollar is showing weakness against the British pound ahead of Trump's tariff announcement. The pair is currently trading near the 1.3000 level, following weak macroeconomic data released during the US trading session on Tuesday. The ISM Manufacturing PMI fell to 49 in March from 50.3 in February, while the JOLTS Employment Number fell to 7.56 million in February from 7.76 million in January. Both figures were below analysts' expectations. The strong ADP data still failed to stop the pair's short-term rally ➡️ US President Donald Trump will announce the new tariff regime at 20:00 GMT on Wednesday. ➡️ US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said late Tuesday that the tariffs announced on Wednesday will be the highest level yet imposed. Countries will then have the opportunity to take steps to lower these tariffs, he added. Personal opinion: ➡️ GBP/USD will find it difficult to break out to the 1.3000 zone as buyers are waiting and evaluating the tariff policy. ➡️ Moreover, RSI is close to overbought territory and buying momentum is slowing down ➡️ In short, this pair will move within the trend line and may break down to 1.2870 after the tariff news is announced ➡️ Analysis based on resistance - support levels and Pivot points combined with EMA to come up with a suitable strategy Plan: 🔆Price Zone Setup: 👉Sell GBP/USD 1.2970 - 1.2980 ❌SL: 1.3010 | ✅TP: 1.2930 - 1.2890 FM wishes you a successful trading day 💰💰💰
