GBPUSD ANALYSIS IS READY (READ THE CAPTION)This chart represents a technical analysis of the GBP/USD currency pair on a 1-hour timeframe. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the analysis: 1. Current Price Level: The price is trading around 1.24152, as shown by the highlighted blue "BUY" box. 2. Resistance Zone: A horizontal yellow line marks the key resistance zone around 1.2460–1.2547. This is where the price might struggle to move higher. A stop-loss level is clearly indicated at 1.25474, suggesting this is the invalidation point for short positions. 3. Support Zone: There is a clearly marked Target Zone at 1.22016, which serves as the price's potential downward target if the bearish scenario unfolds. The yellow horizontal lines below the current price represent support areas where buyers might re-enter the market. 4. Bearish Scenario: The blue arrows show a projected downward movement, indicating a possible price rejection from the resistance zone and a decline toward the 1.22016 target zone. The analysis suggests a head-and-shoulders pattern, with the red curve marking the "head" and signaling a bearish reversal. 5. Volume Profile: The bars on the right indicate trading activity at various price levels, showing a concentration of volume near current levels, which may act as resistance. This analysis seems to favor a bearish outlook, expecting a price drop after rejection at resistance. However, it is also safeguarded by a stop-loss to manage risk if the price breaks above the resistance.

GBP/USD: Ready for a Reversal?After months of a persistent downtrend within a clearly defined descending channel, GBP/USD is showing signs of a potential reversal from the lower bounds of the structure. The pair is currently trading near a key support level at 1.2135, and the RSI indicator suggests oversold conditions, hinting at the possibility of a bullish recovery. Technical Breakdown: Descending Channel: The price has respected the downward-sloping channel, bouncing off its boundaries several times. Currently, the pair is at the lower edge, which has historically acted as a strong support zone. Support and Resistance Levels: Key support levels: 1.2135 and 1.2054. Upside targets: 1.2305, 1.2450, and potentially 1.2616 if bullish momentum intensifies. Bullish Divergence: Momentum indicators (e.g., RSI) are beginning to show divergence, indicating waning bearish momentum and the potential for a reversal. My Expectation: I anticipate a consolidation around the current levels, followed by a breakout to the upside. A bounce towards 1.2305 and 1.2450 is on the cards, with the possibility of further gains if the pair breaches the descending channel’s upper boundary. This move would align with broader market dynamics and technical recovery patterns. Strategy: For traders, this could be a great opportunity to watch for bullish confirmations such as a breakout of minor resistance levels or strong candlestick formations at support. Tight stop losses below 1.2054 can manage downside risks.

GU Long opportunityFollowing a strong daily close above the resistance level, a buy-side imbalance and sell-side inefficiency(FVG) have been observed on the 4 hour chart. 1. As long as the price holds above the flipped resistance-turned-support level, the likelihood of a breakout above the trendline increases. 2. A successful breakout could propel the price towards higher resistance levels, as marked on the chart.

GBP/USD Prepares for Potential Rebound at Crucial Support LevelsOn the 4H timeframe, GBP/USD is trading near a critical support zone around 1.2350, showing signs of potential exhaustion in its recent downtrend. The RSI indicates a possible bullish divergence, suggesting momentum could shift upward. Price action reflects repeated support bounces in this range, making it a significant level to watch. Key resistance lies around 1.2500 and 1.2550, where sellers may re-enter if the pair retraces. A break below 1.2300, however, could trigger further downside toward the 1.2200 level. Keep an eye on reversal confirmations and volume around current levels for short-term bullish opportunities.

Cable struggles to sustain Monday’s bounceMonday’s bounce as the USA took a day off for the inauguration was quite vigorous but doesn’t seem to alter the overall technical picture significantly. With the BoE expected to cut about 0.15% more than the Fed this year in total and ongoing concerns about the British government’s budget and the country’s growth, the fundamental situation seems to favour more losses. $1.21 is still in view as a support while the test of the 38.2% monthly Fibonacci retracement around $1.233 seems to have failed for now. There’s no clear signal from the stochastic oscillator or ATR. The next obvious target below would be around $1.20, but there’d probably need to be a significant uptick in selling volume for that to be achievable ahead of next week’s meeting of the Fed. Meanwhile on Friday 24 January traders of cable will concentrate on British consumer confidence and flash PMIs. This is my personal opinion which does not represent the opinion of Exness. This is not a recommendation to trade.

GBP/USD - What Will It Take...?Happy new year traders! This is a perfect time to do a review on GBPUSD as it's the 1st month where you see the beginnings of the 6-Month candle form, which can be very powerful for gauging a bias. 3 consecutive 6-month candles has closed bearish, whilst respecting the SIBI and attacking short term highs. Short term plays to the upside utilising the 1-min timeframe is possible but in the grand scheme of the bias, which is bearish, I look to target 1.12287. This could take several months to years but there is no solid positive fundamentals to give me the confidence that the UK economy will improve any time soon.

GBP/USD: Pound Sterling Bounces Back as Market Sentiment ShiftsThe Pound Sterling (GBP) is showing resilience at the start of the week, bouncing back against its major peers. This surge can be attributed to multiple factors, with a notable influence from the recent developments in the UK government bond market. As the market digests the weak UK Retail Sales data for December, there has been a notable uptick in demand for UK gilts, signaling confidence among investors despite the bleak economic indicators. At the same time, the broader market is experiencing heightened interest in risk assets as anticipation builds around U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's upcoming inauguration. This event has been a focal point for traders, leading to a reassessment of positions across various currencies, including the GBP. From a technical analysis perspective, the Pound appears to be finding support at a crucial demand zone, indicating a potential rebound. If this area holds, it could signal a retracement that may provide traders with an attractive opportunity to enter long positions. This should be monitored closely, as price action around this demand area can reveal market sentiment and lead to further buying pressure. Looking ahead, the next key event to influence GBP's trajectory is the release of UK employment data for the three months ending in November, set to be published on Tuesday. Investors will be keenly analyzing this data to gauge the health of the UK labor market in the face of ongoing economic challenges. Positive results could further bolster the Pound's position, while disappointing figures may lead to a recalibration of expectations. As traders position themselves ahead of these economic releases, we are particularly bullish on the Pound Sterling. If the UK employment figures align positively with market expectations, it could fuel further momentum, allowing the GBP to extend its gains in the upcoming sessions. For those looking to capitalize on the potential upswing, a long position in GBP seems to be a prudent strategy, as the current technical setup and changing market dynamics suggest an advantageous window for entry. In summary, the Pound's recent bounce is a product of both technical factors and broader market sentiment. With critical economic releases on the horizon, traders should remain vigilant and prepared to respond to evolving conditions as they unfold. ✅ Please share your thoughts about GBP/USD in the comments section below and HIT LIKE if you appreciate my analysis.
