GBP/USD Facing Bearish Pressure, Testing Key SupportLooking at the GBP/USD chart, I see that the pair is in a downtrend and is facing a strong resistance zone around 1.2920. The price has formed a descending structure with lower highs and lower lows, along with moving below the 34 and 89 EMAs, indicating that the bearish momentum is still strong. The key support zone is currently located in the range of 1.2880–1.2900, which could act as a buffer in the short term. If the price breaks this zone, GBP/USD could continue its downward trend, with the nearest target at 1.2800. Conversely, if this support zone holds and buying pressure appears, I will be watching for a possible recovery to the 1.2950 resistance zone. However, I still favor the bearish scenario due to pressure from the larger trend and weakening bullish momentum.

GBP/USD Faces Strong Selling, Downtrend May ContinueLooking at the 4-hour chart of GBP/USD, I notice that the pair is in a clear downtrend, with the EMA 34 and EMA 89 both sloping down, indicating strong selling pressure. The current price is approaching the bearish support line below the 1.2740 area. The psychological resistance zone around 1.2800 – 1.2850 has been tested several times but failed to break above. This shows that the selling pressure is still dominant and is likely to push the price further down if there are no signs of strong support. My trading plan is to wait for a small correction to the resistance zone of 1.2800. If the selling pressure persists in this area, I will consider entering a short position with the target of approaching the lower support zone around 1.2700 or lower. Conversely, if price breaks and goes above 1.2850, I will re-evaluate my strategy.

GBPUST: Sell to win ! The GBP/USD pair is currently trending downward, with prices continuing to slide after encountering resistance. At present, the pair is hovering around the 1.2685 mark, with potential for further declines if it fails to recover above the resistance zone. This area around 1.2875-1.2972 has proven to be a significant resistance level, where sellers have previously regained control. If the downtrend continues, GBP/USD may target the support area near 1.2550, which could provide some stabilization for the pair. However, a break below this support could lead to a deeper decline. Traders are advised to watch for any potential reversal signals around the resistance area.

GBPUSD: Continue to prioritize selling The GBP/USD pair extended its decline, dropping below 1.2810 in Tuesday's trading session at the time of writing. The U.S. dollar remains robust as Trump-related trades continue to gain momentum, keeping the downward trend in the major currency pair intact after breaking through chart-marked support levels. On the USD side, the potential for the Trump administration to propose policies like high tariffs, tax cuts, and interference with the Federal Reserve's monetary policy could strengthen the dollar and bond yields, creating additional resistance for GBP/USD.

GBPUSD Eyes Further Downside Amid Strong ResistanceGBPUSD is currently facing downward pressure, trading near resistance zones around 1.27796 and 1.28758. Recent price action has shown a struggle to gain upward momentum, with sellers stepping in around these resistance areas. This setup suggests a potential continuation of the bearish trend, especially if the pair fails to break above the highlighted resistance levels. Technically, GBPUSD is forming a descending pattern, indicating that sellers may remain in control. If the price cannot sustain any upward push, it may target lower levels, with possible support around 1.26817. Should this support give way, the next target could extend towards 1.25500 or lower.

GBP/USD Waiting for Breakout in Downward ChannelGBP/USD is currently moving within a downward channel with resistance around 1.3000 and support at 1.2850. If the price breaks the upper channel boundary, an uptrend could be formed, with the target of reaching higher highs. Conversely, if the support at the lower boundary is broken, the downtrend could resume, pushing the price lower. The EMAs (34 and 89) are sloping downwards, indicating weak bullish momentum. Traders should keep a close eye on the channel boundaries to determine the next move.

GBPUSD: Sellers approach multi-month-old support before US dataGBPUSD is slipping from last week’s bounce off a six-month support line. Traders are watching for Tuesday's US Consumer Confidence report, while the strong US Dollar and cautious mood ahead of the US Q3 GDP figures, inflation data, and Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) are putting pressure on the Pound Sterling. Bears lose momentum While GBPUSD buyers aren’t gaining traction, sellers will struggle to take control. There are multiple support levels, and indicators like the RSI (14) and a weakening bearish MACD signal may hinder the bear’s progress. Key technical levels to watch Watch for the upward support line from late April around 1.2935, followed by the 200-SMA near 1.2800, as near-term key levels to watch for the GBPUSD sellers. If the bears push below 1.2800, look for support at the August and June lows around 1.2665 and 1.2610. GBPUSD needs to break the ascending trend line from early March near 1.3080 for a recovery. Additional resistance levels include the psychological barrier at 1.3000 and the 50-SMA at 1.3140. Lastly, a horizontal resistance zone near 1.3240 serves as a crucial barrier for buyers. Further downside appears less convincing With the bearish trend losing momentum, expectations for fewer rate cuts from the US Federal Reserve could change if upcoming data doesn't support US Dollar strength. This uncertainty calls for caution among GBPUSD sellers.

GBP Analysis for Potential Buy or Sell Entry Overview: We’re focusing on a POI (Point of Interest) zone where we expect potential price reactions. This POI zone represents a key support or resistance area, and it will determine whether we enter a buy or sell position depending on how the market price reacts to it. Plan: 1. If the market price finds support at the POI Zone: Look for confirmation signals (such as bullish candlesticks, break of recent highs, or volume increases). Enter a Buy position targeting higher levels, aiming for a positive risk-reward ratio. Identify potential target levels based on previous resistance or Fibonacci extensions. 2. If the POI Zone fails as support: Wait for the price to retrace back towards the POI zone, testing it as resistance. Enter a Sell position targeting lower levels, especially if bearish patterns or momentum indicators confirm the move. --- Key Reminder: Trading always involves probabilities, not certainties. No strategy is foolproof, and risk management is essential. Make sure to place stop-losses in appropriate positions to protect your capital, and remember that disciplined execution is key.

GBPUSD, H4 LondGBP/USD stays within the descending channel coming from late September and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator on the 4-hour chart stays well below 50, reflecting the bearish bias. The 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) forms a strong support level at 1.2970. If this support fails, the mid-point of the descending channel could be seen as the next bearish target at 1.2930 before 1.2900 (round level). On the upside, interim resistance is located at 1.3000 (round level, static level) before 1.3040 (upper limit of the channel) and 1.3100 (100-period SMA on the 4-hour chart).

GBPUSD: Bears face limited downside ahead of BoE's Bailey speechOn Tuesday morning, GBPUSD is testing the 100-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA) support, pulling back from last week's bounce. Traders are on alert as they await comments from Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey. Sellers keep the reins but have limited downside room available While GBPUSD’s failure to stay above the 100-EMA and bearish MACD signals encourage sellers, a declining RSI (14) and a six-month-old ascending support line suggest only limited room for further decline. Key technical levels to watch The GBPUSD pair is currently supported by the 100-EMA around 1.2985 and an upward trend line near 1.2950, limiting immediate downside potential. If these levels break, the 50% Fibonacci retracement from April to September at 1.2865 could attract sellers, followed by the 61.8% retracement and August low at 1.2730 and 1.2665. On the upside, the 50-EMA and the 23.6% Fibonacci level around 1.3085 and 1.3165 will be crucial barriers. However, the key focus will be the horizontal resistance zone near 1.3230-40. If GBPUSD can hold above 1.3040, the next target could be around 1.3315-20, with the previous monthly high at 1.3435 acting as a potential stopping point. Bears approach key support zone GBPUSD is nearing important support levels as traders wait for comments from BoE’s Bailey, along with this week’s UK and US PMIs and Durable Goods Orders. With a more hawkish stance from the Fed compared to the BoE and concerns about the UK’s economic strength relative to the US, the pair is likely to maintain its downward trend, even if the downside potential seems limited.
