OANDA:GBPUSD   British Pound / U.S. Dollar
Welcome to my GBPUSD Technical Analysis Session.
Despite British retail sales data rising by more than expected in April, 0.5% from March and an improvement from the drop of 1.2% the prior month; the U.S. dollar against the Pound Sterling appears to be on course for its fourth consecutive weekly gain as U.S. rate hike expectations grow across the market and traders continue to accumulate positions for the potential that U.S. interest rates remain higher for longer. It is also worth noting that the high-impact economic features from the U.S. docket this week and the unresolved debt ceiling negotiation could incite risk-aversed trading activities at the beginning of the week resulting in a choppy market environment before the "big move" happens. GBPUSD Price Forecast: So, in this video, from a technical standpoint - we reviewed the GBPUSD Support and Resistance Levels on the 4H timeframe and how to use them to identify potential trading opportunities ahead of the new week (GBPUSD Chart Analysis).

Trade active:
The new week has started on a strong bullish note as the key level identified in the video has been serving as a support line since the beginning of the week. And with a breakout of the trading range between 1.23580 and 1.23400, the chances that bullish momentum is on the verge of a breakthrough becomes high. Please note that the newly identified structure still remains our guide.

Good Morning

Trade active:
Fallout from our live session this morning; secure buy position

Trade active:
Secure buy positions as selling pressure resumes

Trade active:
So, after being taken out of the buy position with some profit, price action is back at the structure that was broken yesterday at the 1.23750 zone. Depending on how price action reacts to this zone will determine if we are buying or selling. The current market structure still looks bullish especially if we start seeing a reversal pattern around the 1.23750 zone. However, a breakdown/retest may negate the bullish bias to incite a bearish opportunity.
