Today on GBPUSD – Daily and H4 charts support Short trades, but…

On the Daily chart above, the upward trend line that was broken downward last week, and the negative MACD divergence are still good enough for us to maintain our bias for a downward price move. However, previous day’s low (which we’ve highlighted using the blue broken line) @ 1.6093 is a critical support that we would like price to break.

On the H4 chart above, from a day-trade perspective, we are still in a nice downtrend: price keeps forming lower highs and lower lows. However, the most recent swing low @ 1.6093, which also happens to be previous day’s low – as earlier said – is a critical support we would like price to break.

On the other hand, if price pattern on the hourly is able to form new lower highs and lower lows – even without breaking the support level @ 1.6093 – the aggressive ones among us could consider that a Short Trade set-up. If I’m still in the market when (or if) this happens, I’ll post the update.

Similar scenarios are also playing out on the EURUSD and USDJPY pairs – both, also, to the Short side.

As in all market circumstances PATIENCE and DISCIPLINE are the keys here: the above analysis could keep us out of trade today – we never know; but let’s always remind ourselves that what we’re interested in is making money, not just making trades.
