{image} - current monthly low @ yearly mid range; near the Apr POC - technically untested - 3 surges above monthly open, but all 5 days closed below it (-0.4%) How much sense does it have in this shit_on_the_fan environment? (+ Japan has the right for 1 more intervention round (3 per 6 months)){image} Bears need to make a new low, preferably tomorrow
+sell @ 1.362

* The 3623 CDH is the 4th upside 4hr b/o of 3612 LMH.
* Wkly R1 or Wkly S1 have not been bothered so far this week, on this last trading day of the week. Price presently trades above today's Dly R1, above the Wkly Pivot again, and still above the Mthly Pivot - where it has been since the new month started.
* No b/o either way of 3454 LWL or 3658 LWH/CMH so far this week, on this the last trading day of the week.
* Intraday is v.bullish so far, with today's AL equal to YL, and a 1st still true upside b/o of today's AH to the CDH.
* U.s Nfp etc data later may have an impact on price, which overall, remains susceptible to geo-political developments' influence.

GBPUSD UPDATE.

There are two competing forces, trend continuation at point C of ABC and Reversal / Retracement at point D.

Watching out for price reaction between 1.3640 to 1.3660 to Sell GU. However, if the buyers can break this existing trend to the upside, I will say congratulations to them.

Alternatively but low probability if price can pullback strongly to 1.3550 to 1.3570, I will join the buyers crew.

Have a nice day trading all friends and buddies.

What a comeback by the bulls, was it really NFP today? the market is optimistic about something, or maybe a run on stops for NFP risk sellers? Anyhow, I managed to catch a GU long 3pips from the swing low, glad to be back in the green.

Looking at the 4hr chart. Higher lows and price hugging resistance area at 3625 area. When it breaks free it will be rapid fire to above 3700. Hopefully the residtance at 3670 does not hold it back.

My H4 range high projection is 3710, maybe not today, let's see.

{quote} Entered a short scalp trade at 1.36092 stops above daily high. Cheers {image}
This trade played out past my bedtime and trail stop was hit at 23 pips profit. I take the win, nevertheless. Possible short scalp trade in the making with 1hr candles hovering at this level for 4hrs. I'll wait.
Cheers.

W/e summary.

* Price had closed the week circa 3470, and then this U.s-Israel/Iran thing broke out. After 3 weeks of only getting a max of 10-15pips higher than that, price dropped to the 3159 CYL / 'current war lo,' and since then has bounced up to achieve a 'current war-hi' of 3658. It closes this week just 26pips short of that hi.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Price opened the new month above it's Mthly Pivot, and has stayed there so far. It closed the week @/around the Midpoint (3630,) of the Yrly Pivot and Yrly R1.
* The < 13wk awr Wkly candle closes bullish-bodied, the 5th consecutively to do so. It is an 'inside candle' The t/f closes the week out still rangy but most recently bullish within that range.
* Fri's Dly candle closes as a bullish (engulf?) thrust candle, and like the Wkly, as an 'inside candle' The t/f closes the week out probably in a consolidation phase of a general uptrend? It's last few fractal prints have been a HL (34554,) a H (3658 CMH,) a HL (3512 CML,) and a LH (3644 now LWH.)
* The last 4Hr candle close was bullish, meeting supply in the dly and 4hr parts of the prev 1hr/4hr/minor dly sw hi zone = prev res x 2 = pot res that extends up to the 3643/44 week's hi. This is co-existent/overlapping with the same to 3658, the CMH. The t/f closes the week out bullishly, if not in a discernible up-trend?

Wkly, then Dly, then 4Hr, below.
