USDGBP trade ideas
GBPUSD Analysis 10:40am 4/16Here’s my updated resistance zone analysis for GBP/USD, combining all the technical and fundamental data:
Resistance Levels & Why They Matter
1.3265 – Immediate Resistance
GBP/USD tested this level today, and it acted as a short-term barrier.
This level aligns with recent swing highs and pivot point calculations, making it a key area where sellers may step in.
1.3305 – Next Resistance Zone
If price breaks above 1.3265, the next resistance is around 1.3305, based on historical price action and pivot analysis.
This level has previously acted as a turning point, meaning traders may look to take profit or enter short positions here.
1.3430 – Stronger Resistance
This level was identified in recent market analysis as a former multi-month high.
If GBP/USD continues its bullish momentum, this could be a major resistance zone where price struggles to push higher.
1.3640 – Long-Term Resistance Target
If GBP/USD breaks above 1.3430, the next major resistance sits at 1.3640, which has historically been a strong reversal point.
This level represents a significant psychological barrier, where traders may reassess the trend direction.
How I Derived These Levels
Price Action Review: I analyzed recent swing highs and lows to identify key turning points.
Pivot Point Calculations: Using the formula (High + Low + Close)/3, I confirmed resistance zones that align with historical price behavior.
Market Analysis: External sources also highlighted 1.3430 and 1.3640 as critical resistance levels2.
Moving Averages & Trendlines: These levels coincide with key moving averages, reinforcing their importance.
Final Thoughts
With GBP/USD currently at 1.32464, I’m watching 1.3265 as the immediate resistance. If price breaks above that, 1.3305 is the next target, followed by 1.3430 and 1.3640 for longer-term moves. These levels are based on a combination of technical indicators, price action, and external market analysis.

UPDATE ON GU TRADEGBP/USD 1H - Price has recently traded us lower to correct itself, pick up more Demand before taking a move higher. I have gone ahead and marked out the area in which price trade down and into.
With price breaking structure fractally on the 15M timeframes, we could look to add to our positions as this gives us enough confluence to suggest that price is now ready to continue with the higher timeframe bullish move.
This trade is currently running + 125 pips. (+ 5.4%) 5.4RR
A big well done to those of you who are still in on this trade, I have actually gone ahead and taken a full close on this but will continue to monitor the original position for those still in.

GBPUSD BEARISH FOR 90PIPSGBP/USD Bearish 90-Pip Forecast: Analysis & Strategy
Current Market Context:
As of the latest data, GBP/USD is trading around 1.3800. A 90-pip bearish target would place the pair near 1.3710. Below is the rationale and actionable plan:
Key Drivers for a Bearish Outlook
Fundamental Factors:
UK Weakness: Dovish Bank of England (BoE) rhetoric, soft UK GDP/CPI data, or rising unemployment could weaken the Pound.
USD Strength: Hawkish Fed signals (e.g., rate hike talks, tapering) or strong U.S. jobs/inflation data may boost the dollar.
Geopolitical Risks: Brexit uncertainties, UK-EU trade tensions, or global risk-off sentiment favoring the USD.
Technical Analysis:
Resistance Levels: Failure to break above 1.3850 (a key resistance) or bearish patterns (e.g., double top, descending channel).
Momentum Indicators: RSI divergence or MACD crossover signaling bearish momentum.
Moving Averages: Price below the 50/200-day EMA, suggesting a downtrend.
Trade Strategy
Entry Zone: 1.3800–1.3830 (post-retest of resistance).
Target: 1.3710 (90 pips).
Stop-Loss: 1.3870 (above recent swing high).
Risk Management:
Use 1:2 risk-reward ratio (e.g., risk 30 pips to gain 90 pips).
Adjust position size to limit exposure (e.g., 1–2% of account capital).
Critical Events to Monitor
UK Data: BoE interest rate decisions, CPI (July 19), Retail Sales.
U.S. Data: Fed meetings, Non-Farm Payrolls (August 4), CPI.
Global Catalysts: Brexit updates, geopolitical tensions.
Contingency Plan
Upside Risk: A BoE rate hike surprise or weak U.S. data could reverse the trend. Tighten stops if price breaks above 1.3870.
Alternative Scenario: If the drop stalls near 1.3750 (support), secure partial profits and trail stops.
UPDATE ON GBP/USD TRADEGBP/USD 1H - Morning people, I hope you are all okay. As you can see price has played out again very well during the Asian session. I believe we will see our TP achieved by the end of todays NY.
With price setting new highs and lows above our entry I believe we safe to move our SL to breakeven to avoid taking any losses from this position. A reversal here would mean longer term bearishness anyways.
This trade is currently running + 152 pips. (+ 6.4%) 6.4RR
A big well done to those of you who jumped in on this trade, if you have any questions with regards to the analysis or the position itself then please drop me a message or comment below and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
Ensure you are managing your trades correctly. I have gone ahead and moved my SL to Entry and I have also taken another partial to bank profits and remove any unwanted risk.

GBPUSD Analysis 4/18 11:13amI've been analyzing GBP/USD closely over the past few days, and here's where I stand. The daily historical data shows an overall uptrend from around 1.278 on April 9 to roughly 1.328 on April 18. Although the price has been climbing, I've noticed that momentum is starting to taper off, which makes me question whether this rally might be overextended.
On the fundamentals side, a series of high-impact events are coming up. For example, recent UK PMI readings have come in slightly weaker—manufacturing at 44.1 and services at 51—while US indicators like PMIs and housing data have shown mixed results, such as an unusually sharp drop in New Home Sales MoM. These data points suggest both the dollar and the pound are facing headwinds, and they add a layer of uncertainty over the near-term direction.
Technically, I've set up a sell trade at 1.32480 with the current price now at 1.32830. My chart tells me that if the market dives further.
Overall, while the short-term setup shows some bullish energy, the divergence with longer-term daily averages and the mixed fundamental data make me cautious. I'll be watching for a pullback toward those support levels that might validate my bearish stance.
That's it for me for today.. unless something unexpected happens ..
Have a great weekend!
BTW im looking for another pair to trade comment below your recommendations and why! Thanks!
Elliott Wave Confirms That GBPUSD Has Resumed Its Upward MoveGBPUSD has recently broken above its April 3, 2025 peak of 1.3207, which we identified as wave (1) in the chart. This breakout signals a bullish trend starting from the January 13, 2025 low of 1.2705, suggesting more upward movement ahead. The rally from this low follows a five-wave Elliott Wave pattern. This is a common structure in technical analysis indicating a strong trend.
Starting from the January 13 low, the first wave or wave (1) reached 1.3207.,A pullback in wave (2) then followed which ended at 1.2705. This pullback formed a zigzag pattern. Wave A dropped to 1.2823, wave B rose to 1.2934, and wave C fell to 1.2705, completing wave (2).
The pair has now moved higher into wave (3). From the wave (2) low, the first sub-wave (wave ((i))) peaked at 1.2864, followed by a dip in wave ((ii)) to 1.274. The third sub-wave (wave ((iii))) climbed to 1.314, and the fourth (wave ((iv))) dipped to 1.3027. The fifth sub-wave (wave ((v))) is expected to finish soon, completing wave 1 of a larger pattern.
After this, the pair is likely to pull back in wave 2, correcting the upward move from the April 8, 2025 low. This correction could unfold in 3, 7, or 11 smaller swings before the pair resumes its upward trend. In the short term, as long as the 1.27 low holds, any dips should attract buyers in 3, 7, or 11 swings, supporting further gains.

Win rate doesn't matter, in the end it always
comes down to how much you win versus how

with little profits and one big loss to ruin all.
Regardless of win rate, the better trader you are

Market Flow Strategy
Mister Y
GBPUSD macro viewnotice the bullish flow sweeping swing lows and rallying higher. This has brought my attention to the equal highs on the monthly and also checking my indicator u can see the close back in the M range and higher pricing is suggested. we already retested the Wfvg where price reacted from and getting another push higher will suggest a break of that high.
As far as my model and strategy i do not trade on mondays so i will sit on my hands to see how the daily candle closes so we trade the expansion for the rest of the week. Mondays can be reversals setting up for tuesdays/wed high of the week or low... anyways the strategy here is trading the weekly/daily range. have an amazing week guys.
GBP/USD AnalysisFenzoFx—The GBP/USD pair rebounded from $1.3202 support, currently trading around $1.3277 and continuing its bullish trend.
As long as it stays above $1.3144, the next target could be $1.3435. On the flip side, a break below $1.3144 may trigger a bearish move towards $1.3030.
