GBP/USD Hits Positive Reversal Target

  • Daily: In last Friday’s Weekly Technical Update, it was noted that the GBP/USD developed a positive reversal (when the RSI low is lower or equal, but the price low is higher). The swing projection to 1.5610 was projected. The market reached 1.5637 already.
  • I mentioned that this pair now enters a zone of resistance above 1.56. You can see in the daily that this is the zone between 50 and 61.8% retracement.

  • 1H: The GBP/USD in the 1H chart also shows a rally following a positive reversal. The projection to 1.5625 was reached. This came after a bearish divergence was formed.
  • This suggests that the momentum has slowed, but the bearish attempts are in the near-term, and not strong enough to reverse the trend.
  • Now we are pushing into resistance again. Some traders find this to be a scalping opportunity, but for the intermediate term, the rally is still intact, and there are no signs of reversal.
  • However, being that the market is testing resistance, the resistance zone above 1.56 should be monitored for topping action.
