GBPUSD | Perspective for the new week | Follow-up details

Updated
We closed last week's trading with about 100 pips as the much anticipated $1.14000 level was finally broken by the buyers to set the tone for a bullish momentum in the coming week(s). The GBPUSD is moving higher and it's looking to go all out in the nearest future if the price can break out of the $1.1800 level. However, we can not ignore the possibility of a downturn as the price is presently consolidating below the bearish trendline identified in the daily timeframe.

There has been an indecision in the market as price action is caught within the 1.16150 and 1.15800 zone hence the need to be patient at this juncture to look out for a signal in the form of either a breakout or breakdown of the channel.

The breakdown/retest of the $1.15800 level becomes a bearish signal. A further breakdown/retest of the $1.15500 level should welcome an addition to the existing position and let's see if we are going to be seeing a retest of the important $1.14000 level that was broken during the course of last week's trading session to incite the second wave of a potential bullish momentum.

As discussed in the video, there is still the tendency of bullish momentum as the price remains above the $1.14000 level that was broken to the upside last week. We are only waiting for this retracement phase to end to plan for the second wave of the bullish momentum that started last week. Though the last 12 hours have seen buying pressure from the 1.14650 zone, there is still a likelihood of a retest of the 1.140000 level and if the price does not plunge that far followed by the appearance of a reversal pattern then we want to get ready to buy.

Closing the position as the US Dollar appears to be losing momentum across the major pairs.

This position was well explained during the live studio session today (video on my youtub). Price breaks out of the bearish trendline which shares a confluence with the $1.15500 level to insinuate a bullish signal

Sorry, woke up late this morning. I missed the breakdown/retest of the $1.14000 level to join the decline. Congrats to those who took advantage of this... Hoping that the market will present another opportunity.

We have been waiting for the market to present another opportunity to join a possible bearish continuation but in the last 24 hours, we have been witnessing buying from the $1.11700 level hereby insinuating a potential retracement move back into the structure with the anticipation of a trend continuation. However, we can not ignore the possibility of a breakdown/retest of the new demand zone around $1.11700 to incite a bearish momentum. So, patience is required at this juncture as the need to wait out for signals before making a decision and it is important to be aware that anything that happens from now on shall be in anticipation of the NFP coming up later today.

This was duly explained during the live session today(video uploaded on youtube); I am still looking forward to seeing how the price will relate to the 1.14000 level which also shares a confluence with the bearish trendline identified on the daily timeframe before making a decision. However, counter-trend traders could take advantage of this bullish move into the sell window - a move I will consider to be a retracement of the previous impulse leg. Update coming up soon

Note
I must admit that this move was missed as the market did not present a second chance to join the rally but it's ok, we live to trade another day! Above all, it was a profitable week but could have made more. For those who took advantage of the countertrend opportunity - kudos to you. Have some fun this weekend and be ready to come back stronger next week!

Happy weekend to you!
