MICRO GBP/USD Futures (M6B1!), H4 Potential for Bullish RiseType : Bullish rise Resistance :1.1774 Pivot:1.1650 Support : 1.1497 Preferred Case: On the H4, with the price breaking the descending trendline and ichimoku cloud, we have a bullish bias that the price may rise from the pivot at 1.1650, where the current price and overlap resistance are to the 1st resistance at 1.1774 where the overlap resistance and 38.2% fibonacci retracement are. Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could drop to the support at 1.1497, where the 61.8% fibonacci retracement is. Fundamentals: Although many data of GBP out today are lower than expectation, the drop of DXY has stronger impact on the price. Therefore, we hold a weak bullish bias.

Micro GBPUSD Futures (M6B1!), H4 Potential for Bullish RiseType : Bullish Rise Resistance : 1.2287 Pivot: 1.2157 Support : 1.2077 Preferred Case: On the H4, with price moving above the ichimoku indicator and within the ascending channel , we have a bullish bias that price will rise from the pivot at 1.2157 where the pullback support and 50% fibonacci retracement are to the 1st resistance at 1.2287 in line with swing high resistance, 78.6% fibonacci retracement and 61.8% fibonacci projection . Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could break pivot structure and drop to 1st support at 1.2077 where the pullback support, 78.6% fibonacci retracement and 78.6% fibonacci projection are. Fundamentals: The UK's Prelim GDP q/q and GDP m/m are anticipated to show a decline in economic activity. This gives us a bearish view on GBPUSD . We'll need to exercise caution for this setup because our fundamentals and technicals are not completely aligned.

The BoE is under pressure to take on a more aggressive approach in setting future policy rates. Gov Bailey indicated that the BoE could increase interest rates by 50bps as it attempts to address the issue of persistent inflation .

Micro GBP/USD Futures (M6B1!), H4 Potential for Bullish RiseType : Bullish Rise Resistance : 1.2184 Pivot: 1.2061 1st Support : 1.1955 2nd Support : 1.1778 Preferred Case: On the H4, with prices moving within an ascending channel and above the ichimoku indicator, we have a bullish bias that price will rise to the pivot at 1.2061 where the swing high resistance and 61.8% fibonacci projection are. Once there is upside confirmation that price has broken the pivot , we would expect bullish momentum to carry prices to 1st resistance at 1.2184 where the swing high resistance,61.8% fibonacci retracement , 100% fibonacci projection and 127.2% fibonacci extension are. Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could drop to the 1st support at 1.1955 where the pullback support is. Should price break 1st support, we would have a bearish bias that price will drop to 2nd support at 1.1778 in line with swing low support and 100% fibonacci projection . Fundamentals: BoE Gov Bailey commented that in order to bring UK inflation towards the 2% target, the BoE could consider more aggressive rate increases of 50bps. This gives us a bullish bias towards the GBPUSD forex pair.
