GBPUSD, moving from 2018 to 2019

Short
FX:GBPUSD   British Pound / U.S. Dollar
GBPUSD did not move a lot in week 52 of 2018, it did break upwards to a bullish level 3 zone, however, it wasn't by a lot. Anyone who entered long in this pair would have stayed in the green, however, it might not hit the expectations of many traders.

Most of the movement was spent in the range of the level 3 zone. The price movement doesn't seem convinced that it will continue to head upwards, and a reversal pattern was spotted in the level 3 zone, which hinted that the following week 1 of 2019, we might see a new bearish trend. The break from bullish level 1 to level 2 and top level 3 wasn't too fantastic. Each break upwards is just marginally higher than the previous. This did not give me confidence on the upward strength of GBPUSD.

On the other hand, GBPUSD hinted that the coming bearish trend will be as strong as the second top of the double top pattern in level 3 zone failed to reach the same high as the first top. I will be building contract short contracts and expecting a drop for week 1 of 2019.

However, lets stay flexible and open to market development and trade in the direction of the market, so we can all stay profitable in 2019!
