GBPAUD Don't dismiss a trade idea too quickly

After retracing to the previous swing high and experiencing a strong impulsive move to the downside, the price formed two smaller consolidations before beginning to form a larger bear flag.

The positioning and size of the consolidation, coupled with the fact that the price is trading above the previous low, make this trade higher risk. However, if the price forms a smaller consolidation below the wick and preferably trades at or below the low to the left, we could suddenly have a high-quality entry.

Don't dismiss a trade idea too quickly. I covered GBPAUD last week already, and the same idea is still valid, albeit with slightly different PA.

However, if the price aggressively BO above the Liq.P and/or begins to form a consolidation above it, the short trade idea becomes obsolete
