GBPJPY reaching the best level for long-term buying.The GBPJPY pair has been trading within a 10-month Channel Up since the April 09 2025 market bottom. In the past 2 weeks it is on a technical Bearish Leg as following a +8.60% Bullish Leg, it topped and the correction broke below the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) yesterday.
This has always been an early Buy Signal, with the last two breaks even touching and rebounding exactly on the 1D MA100 (green trend-line). In fact this 8.60% Bullish Leg into correction resembles the one that led to the August 04 2025 Higher Low just above the 1D MA100. The 1D RSI sequences among those two fractals are identical and with the RSI about to enter its Support Zone, we are about to get the strongest Buy Signal.
Our Target is at least the 1.786 Fib extension (like October 08 2025) at 220.000.

EURGBP Channel Down topped. Sell Signal.The EURGBP pair has been trading within a Channel Down since the November 14 2025 High. Yesterday the price hit the pattern's Top (Lower Highs trend-line) and got rejected exactly on the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line), similar to the previous Lower High.
That High initiated a -1.52% Bearish Leg and we expect the market to drop at least by the same % as it's the minimum Bearish Leg drop it had within this Channel Down. As a result, our Target s 0.85900, which would also make a perfect test of the 1W MA200 (red trend-line), the market's natural long-term Support.

GBPUSD M30 HTF Supply Rejection and Bearish Continuation๐ Description
FX:GBPUSD has shown a clear bearish impulse after failing to sustain above the recent intraday highs. Price is currently consolidating below multiple 30-minute Fair Value Gaps, indicating a corrective pullback within a broader bearish structure rather than a bullish trend reversal.

GBPJPY buyers looking for a 1D MA100 test.The GBPJPY pair has been trading within a Channel Up since the April 09 2025 Low and this week is seen pulling back from its top (Higher Highs trend-line) to the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line), which is the first Support of this pattern.
With the previous Bearish Leg pulling back by -3.04% and touching the 1D MA100 (green trend-line) before bottoming, we seek for the price to repeat that in order to turn into a long-term buy opportunity again. Even the 1D RSI has some breathing room before it bottoms.
Once that condition is met, we expect the new Bullish Leg to target 220.000 at least (Fib extension 1.786).

GBPUSD on the 30-minute timeframe has impulsively rallied toward the higher-timeframe Fair Value Gap (H1 FVG) and is now trading in close proximity to this premium area. While price has not yet fully mitigated the FVG, the approach into this zone raises the probability of a bearish reaction and downside rotation.

GBPUSD Final rally before a 2026 collapse.The GBPUSD pair has been trading within a giant Bullish Megaphone pattern for the past 3 years. This week will most likely be the first to close green after three straight bearish 1W candles. It is likely however to be the last one as having broken below its 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) in November 2025, the pair has confirmed the start of a new Bear Cycle.
So far, that is similar to the 2019 - 2021 Bullish Megaphone, which after making a 1W MA100/ 200 Bearish Cross and breaking below its 1W MA50, it confirmed a massive Bear Cycle that first hit its bottom on the 0.836 Fibonacci level and then broke the pattern to the downside making a new market Low.
As a result, we expect this week's bullish sentiment to reverse on the Lower Highs Resistance (2021 also displayed one) and towards the end of 2026 test the 0.836 Fib at 1.2400. Notice also the striking similarities among the 1W RSI sequences of those two fractals.

GBPUSD โ Weekly Cycle ContextGBPUSD continues to follow its long-term cyclical rhythm. The market remains bullish while the rising trendline holds, with price advancing away from the last cycle low.
That said, within the cycle framework, price is still expected to be pulled toward the next cycle bottom. A decisive break of the trendline would signal a shift in control and better align price with the declining phase of the cycle.
Until then, bullish structure remains intact - patience is key.
Watching for:
โข Trendline break
โข Momentum rollover
โข Cycle timing alignment

GBPUSD Channel Down starting new Bearish Leg.The GBPUSD pair has been trading within a 6-month Channel Down and appears to have just started its new Bearish Leg as Tuesday's Lower High was priced exactly on its top.
As the same time, it almost hit the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level, which is where the previous (September 17 2025) Lower High was formed, while also the 1D RSI is on the decline after marginally turning overbought (above 70.00).
As a result, we expect the pattern's new Bearish Leg to unfold and can be confirmed as soon as the price breaks below the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line). The previous two Bearish Legs declined by -4.70% and -5.24% respectively, and in both cases the 1D RSI hit the 30.00 oversold barrier.
A new -4.70% decline would target 1.2930, but since this time the 1W MA100 (red trend-line) is in the way, which is the market's long-term Support, we expect a more fair Target to be 1.3050 until we can confirm further downside.
If the 1D RSI hits 30.00 before the price reaches 1.3050, we will take profit regardless.

GBPUSD Multi-year downtrend is starting.The GBPUSD pair has been quietly trading within a multi-decade Channel Down since its November 2007 market Top. The price is now the closest it has been to its 1M MA200 (orange trend-line) since it broke below in August 2014. This is also the 0.786 Fibonacci Channel level, the trend-line where that 2014 Bearish Leg started.
With the 1M RSI also rejected on its 65.00 Resistance, we believe the pair is starting a new multi-year Bearish Leg. The minimum such a Bearish Leg declined by within this pattern, has been -20.75%, which gives us a Target of at least 1.0950 by 2027. GBPUSD is perhaps one of the strongest long-term sell opportunities in the market right now.

EURGBP has topped. Long-term Bear Cycle starting.The EURGBP pair is making a long-term trend shift from bullish to bearish. The bearish indicator that stands out at the moment is the 1W RSI which has made a Triple Top since April 07, while the price has been on Higher Highs. Not the cleanest Bearish Divergence, but a Bearish Divergence indeed.
The build up pattern to this (Channel Up into Channel Down following a 1W RSI Bearish Divergence) is similar to the 2022 - 2023 sequence. That fractal turned into a Channel Down a little before the 1W Golden Cross was formed, which on today's fractal was just completed. At the same time, the two patterns exhibit identical 1W MACD sequences, and we are currently on a completed Bearish Cross.
Following the 1W Golden Cross, the 2023 sequence declined aggressively towards its 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level, initially and after a strong rebound the market had a solely bearish 2024 that took it to a new Low.
As a result, our next long-term Target is a little above the current 0.618 Fib at 0.85000.

GBPJPY 7-month Channel Up has topped. Sell Signal.The GBPJPY pair has been trading within a 7-month Channel Up since May 8 with its 1D MA100 (green trend-line) acting as its major Support thus the most optimal buy entry.
Today the price seems to be starting to reverse after two days of testing the pattern's top and the Diverging Higher Highs trend-line. With the 1D RSI having made a near Triple Top on the 70.00 Resistance, we expect the Channel Up to initiate its Bearish Leg now.
All previous Bearish Legs have hit at least their 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level, with the last two even making direct contact with the 1D MA100.
As a result, our short-term Target on this pair is 203.000 or book it earlier if the 1D RSI enters its Support Zone first.

GBPUSD on a multi-year decline that's far from being over.The GBPUSD pair is currently on a 5-week rebound following the November 03 Low just below its 1W MA50 (blue trend-line). Despite this short-term reaction, the general long-term trend remains bearish following the June 30 2025 High.
That High started a Double Top sequence that is similar to both previous Cycle Tops since January 22 2018. Even though this latest one didn't take place exactly on the Lower Highs trend-line, it was priced on the closest level to the 1M MA200 (red trend-line) since September 2014.
At the same time, the 1W RSI printed the exact same 8-year Resistance Zone rejection pattern as the previous 4 times. Based on the previous 2 Cycles, we expect the 1st Leg of this long-term correction to approach the 1W MA200 (orange trend-line) on a -7.64% (minimum) drop, targeting 1.2750. Then after a bounce to retest and get rejected on the 1W MA50, we expect it to aim then 9-year Symmetrical Support Zone at 1.2100.

Is the BoJ Planning a Thanksgiving Ambush at 207.00?The "Guppy" (GBP/JPY) surges toward a critical 15-month peak. This rally highlights a clash between Japanese fiscal stimulus and UK fiscal prudence. Traders must navigate high-stakes geopolitical tension and potential central bank intervention during the Thanksgiving holiday.
Macroeconomic Divergence: The Core Catalyst
The Yen and Sterling displayed powerful, opposing dynamics this month. Japan faces market anxiety regarding government spending. Conversely, the UK is regaining fiscal credibility.
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi recently approved a massive ยฅ21 trillion stimulus package. This figure represents the largest injection since the COVID-19 era. Markets historically view such aggressive spending as a negative for currency strength. Consequently, investors priced in this fiscal dovishness heavily since Takaichiโs appointment.
In contrast, the UKโs recent budget avoided reckless pivots. The government aims to cut expenses for a better fiscal balance. While higher income taxes may slightly dampen consumption, the overall stance stabilizes the Pound. This prudence makes the GBP the third-best performer in todayโs session.
Leadership and Monetary Strategy
A paradox emerges in Tokyo. PM Takaichiโs fiscal expansion may force the Bank of Japan (BoJ) to pivot. The BoJ might turn hawkish to counter inflation and protect the Yen.
Investors now eye the December 18th policy decision. The central bank could hike rates sooner than expected to offset the government's spending spree. Meanwhile, the threat of direct intervention looms large. The BoJ may utilize foreign reserves to buy back Yen if depreciation accelerates.
Technological and Algorithmic Impacts
Modern trading relies heavily on high-frequency trading (HFT) and algorithmic models. These "Cyber-Finance" systems identified the GBP/JPYโs tight bull channel since November 5.
Furthermore, Japanโs export-heavy "High-Tech" sector influences this dynamic. A weak Yen usually boosts profits for Japanese patent-holders in robotics and automotive industries. However, rising energy import costs counteract these gains. This economic friction creates volatility that algorithmic traders exploit, pushing momentum indicators like the RSI to overbought levels.
Technical Analysis: The 207.00 Threshold
Technically, the pair sits at a decisive inflection point. The price action evolved in a relentless upward trend. However, overbought RSI levels warrant caution.
Momentum still tilts upwards, suggesting the top is not yet in. Traders must watch the 207.00 resistance level closely. Last week, action stalled at 206.86. A daily close above this zone confirms a breakout, targeting the 208.120 highs (July 2024 peak).
Conversely, failure to break 207.00 suggests a "double-top" pattern. This technical formation typically precedes a sharp reversal.
Strategic Outlook
Liquidity often thins during the Thanksgiving break. This environment increases the risk of "flash crash" scenarios if the BoJ intervenes. Traders should monitor the 207.00 level and manage risk strictly. The convergence of fiscal policy, algorithmic momentum, and central bank anxiety guarantees a volatile end to November.
GBPJPY rejected at the top of its 6-month Channel Up.The GBPJPY pair has been trading within a 6-month Channel Up and yesterday got rejected exactly on its top, making a Higher High. That completed a +3.92% rise, similar to all previous Bullish Legs of this pattern.
As a result, we technically view yesterday's rejection as the start of the new Bearish Leg. All previous corrections hit at least the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) and we expect that to happen at 202.400 at least.
As for the most optimal buy, that will be on the 1D MA100 (green trend-line), which marked all previous four bottoms (Higher Lows) and initiated the Bullish Legs. The 1D RSI testing its Support Zone, is an additional buy indicator. We expect the next Bullish Leg to reach at least 208.250 (+3.92%).

GBP/JPY: An Unusual Ascent Amid Global RiskThe GBP/JPY pair currently sits near 204.00, retracing from a six-week high. This movement reflects a complex tug-of-war between the Pound Sterling (GBP) , which faces uncertainty from upcoming UK inflation data, and an uncharacteristically weak Japanese Yen (JPY) . We analyze the diverse forces driving this pair's recent unusual ascent, where the JPY fails to act as its traditional safe-haven counterweight.
Macroeconomics & Monetary Policy Divergence
The immediate market focus centers on divergent monetary policy expectations. The Bank of Japan (BoJ) faces pressure to align its policies with fiscal objectives, potentially limiting future rate hikes. This uncertainty, coupled with the new government's plan for large economic stimulus and lower taxes, dampens JPY demand. Conversely, the Bank of England (BoE) awaits crucial UK Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, which is expected to show headline inflation moderating to *b]3.6% annually. This data will significantly influence the BoE's rate hike outlook, injecting caution into GBP trading ahead of the 07:00 GMT release.
Geopolitics & Geostrategy: The Taiwan Factor
A key reason for the JPY's recent underperformance is a shift in geopolitical sentiment toward Japan. New Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi adopted a firmer pro-Taiwan stance than her predecessors, triggering unease in Beijing. This heightened political tension weighs heavily on sentiment surrounding Japan, effectively diluting the Yen's traditional safe-haven magnetism against global risk. This specific anxiety overshadows the Yen's long-term status as the principal global currency counterweight.
Fiscal Policy & Economic Outlook
Concerns about Japan's fiscal health are also eroding the JPY's strength. The government is preparing a large economic stimulus package to boost growth. This spending raises concerns among investors worried about Japan's already stretched finances . These fiscal anxieties add direct pressure to the currency, making the JPY less attractive despite the current risk-off environment observed in global equity markets. This fiscal trajectory contrasts with the Bank of Japan's potential monetary hesitancy.
Industry Trends & Corporate Vulnerabilities
Corporate Japan's deep integration with the US technology sector presents another vulnerability. Many major Japanese companies maintain significant earnings exposure to the health and performance of the US tech boom. Corporate vulnerabilities tied to the US technology cycle are eroding the JPYโs traditional safe-haven appeal. Consequently, negative headlines or wobbles on Wall Street disproportionately mute the Yen's response, preventing it from rallying when global equities come under pressure.
Management, Innovation, and Patent Analysis -
While not an immediate driver, Japan's long-term currency strength relies on its competitive edge in high-tech and science . The current vulnerability suggests that the market is discounting the perceived innovation premium of corporate Japan. Traders see a connection between the dependency on US tech and a potentially lagging pace in domestic, cutting-edge patent analysis and independent industry leadership. Weak corporate sentiment reflects doubts about resilience and adaptive business models under new management.
Conclusion for Strategic Hedging
The Yen's uncharacteristic weakness creates a unique setup. The currency is behaving out of character relative to the worsening risk backdrop. This anomaly presents tactical opportunities for hedgers with exposure to the Yen. However, this phase is likely temporary. Japanโs enormous net international investment position and its central role in funding global carry trades mean the Yen's safe-haven DNA remains intact. If global markets experience a sharper, sustained downturn, expect the traditional gravitational pull into the JPY to reassert itself.
GBPCHF - APPROACHES KEY DEMAND ZONESymbol - GBPCHF
GBPCHF continues to correct, forming lower-lows amid ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and US policy concerns. The currency pair remains within a bearish structure, yet it is now approaching a critical demand zone located near 1.0555 โ 1.0530, where a potential reaction from buyers could emerge.
Despite the prevailing downside momentum, the pair is entering a zone of interest that may attract bullish activity. If the bulls succeed in defending this demand zone, a notable reversal from these levels could follow.
Resistance levels: 1.0560, 1.0535
Support levels: 1.0600, 1.0647, 1.0685
If the price fails to hold above the current support and liquidity zone highlighted in the chart, another wave of selling could develop. Although, given the existing market context, the probability of a deeper decline appears limited.
