Selling pull-backs in GBPUSD

In the long run, looking at the weekly and daily chart we can see that the price is reaching a bottom. At least a temporary one and correction should follow. Until then though, we can use the intra-day momentum and try to find sell opportunities on the lower time frames. We have two ways to do that – selling with divergence around the resistance zone or selling with the break of the up trend line. Remember this trade setups are only valid as long as the price remains below the 1.5070-1.5090 resistance zone.

Technical Overview:
D1 – there is bullish divergence already present and the pair has reached the psychological support around 1.50

Entry:
H1 – in the shorter term another push down is possible so we are looking for a sell either with the break of the up trend line or around the top of the pattern that is forming on the H1 chart close to the resistance zone around 1.5070/90
Target 1: 1.4960
Target 2: 1.4900
Stop Loss: above 1.5090

Scenario 1:

Scenario 2:

I wish you successful week!

When I released the “Broker Nightmare” (software that hides trades from brokers) 8 years ago, I found an overwhelming number of frustrated people who genuinely wanted to learn how to trade the Forex market, but instead found themselves scammed and misled. Over the years I have also release other trading systems based on my trading strategies, and met a lot of people on my worldwide Forex seminars. We’ve formed a close Forex community and we meet once or twice a year in various locations in Europe.
