Hi Traders! GBPUSD technical analysis and short term forecast post is here. In this pair, based on the multi-timeframe analysis method, we are going to look for the evidence on three timeframes that is on the current trading timeframe and two timeframes higher, when we get evidence that supports our view on these three timeframes this makes the setup very reliable. We do our analysis on the MetaTrader4 platform (MT4), some very interesting, useful tips and hacks about the MT4 platfor m could be found here. If you would like to learn more about the way we trade and the technical analysis we use then check out the HomeTrader Club Spoiler alert – free memberships are available! Let’s start our analysis now from the highest timeframe which will be the daily chart here.
On the daily chart, the price reached a key resistance zone that has formed based on the 100%(1.24439) Fibonacci expansion level of the first wave and the 61.8%(1.26335) Fibonacci expansion level of the second wave. Also, we have a bearish divergence that has formed between the first high formed at 1.24463 and the second high formed at 1.24473 based on the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bearish pressure. In addition to this, based on the Volumes indicator we could see that the volumes are dropping, we may consider this as yet another evidence of bearish pressure. We may now move down to one timeframe lower and look for evidence supporting this short-term bearish view.
On the H4 chart, we have a bearish divergence that has formed between the first high formed at 1.22100 and the second high formed at 1.24473 based on the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bearish pressure. In addition to this, the ADX indicator gave a bearish signal here at the cross of -DI (red line) versus +DI (green line) and the main signal line (silver line) reads value over 25 which we may consider as yet another evidence of bearish pressure. So everything looks good here for the bears, we may now move down to one more timeframe lower and look for evidence supporting this short-term bearish view.
On the H1 chart, we have a bearish divergence that has formed here as well, between the first high formed at 1.24350 and the second high formed at 1.24473 based on the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bearish pressure. The price then moved lower and broke below the last low at 1.23128 thus creating lower lows which we may consider as another evidence of bearish pressure. So everything looks good here for the bears and until the key resistance zone (marked in red) shown in the image below holds my short-term view remains bearish here and I expect the price to move lower further.
