you wont see 1.2 in the next 2 weeks ill come back to this post then or you can look at the other feed 2-week chart i posted first to see why im confident http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...69#post9492669 {image}
Sorry to disappoint you but your down trendline is not really a trendline, there is too much space. You cannot just draw a line between 2 points and call it a trendline.

Here is the daily equivalent of your "trendline" on your weekly chart (see chart below, the blue line):

As you can see there is way too much space!

Now look at the purple and red lines, these are real (resistance) trendlines and they will stop the cable on its way up. Cable is bearish, this is clearly a seller's market, the GBP/USD could go to $1 who knows, so you guys should stop thinking about buying GBP/USD, any up move will be short-lived.

Sure, a breakout of these 2 resistance trendlines is always possible, but betting on that breakout is a high risk low reward type of situation.
When you see that kind of extremely bearish chart, think about short selling, not buying.

There is no such thing as an oversold market, things that look "cheap" can always get cheaper.

with a bearish eur gbp weekly that wont change as I type ? {quote}
even still? with a retest of the TL normal before a drop...

the drop/break was't that significant... Dollar not that strong thanks to some tweeting/speeches and whatever from trump talking down dollar FED coming up... EG is/was a perfect buy at 0.8470... i choose highs and lows, they are always bearish bullish when they are there....

EU forming Divergence on hourly for north contradicting other divergences pointing down (h4 and daily) (MACD)

i prefer long long term longs in GU... but from lower down... - i should have kept my short and i did long at 1.2526, i want lower... via stronger dollar with a stronger JPY... (EU 1.0550-1.0600 from here without 1.0725 being beaten) GBP would need to get weaker than all of them for my conditions - but that would be hard

anything on EU would be appreciated

there will be an end... we are at new lows... there is ALWAYS a retrace, even on weaker currencies retraces can be substantial... longs are more favourable now, they have better RR

we are at new lows
We humans love to buy things at a low price, it's our nature.

However, in the Stock, futures and Forex market, betting against a downtrend is ALWAYS a bad idea.

Sure there is always a retrace like you said, but that retrace could happen after another 1,000 pip drop or more, always keep that in mind.

The average trader will see the cable chart and think that the upside potential is much much bigger than the downside potential.
This thinking is extremely dangerous. Look again at the daily chart, do you at least see higher highs and higher lows?

Nope, we don't see such a thing, so why should we buy, seriously?

if its not a trendline and this chart falls there it won't respect it which I might say D1 did already both sides
how else can I draw a line given the ugly nature of the chart

Sure, here we go.
EU is consolidating inside an ascending channel on the 4h chart.
This is usually a bearish configuration, a breakout to the downside is the next probable move.

The problem Bones is that you are simply drawing trendlines that support your bullish point of view, and ignoring the rest.
It is always dangerous to proceed that way, look at the market from both sides, long AND short.

Once again Bones GBP/USD does NOT respect trendlines to the T, it always cuts through the price.

100% pure text-book trendlines rarely exist anyway, that would be too easy, anyone with a ruler could make a fortune that way.

Let's say yo won't see 1.200 for along time why because theŁ is a strong one to trade if you wanted to buy any Kong in uk you would think anywhere at 1.2 is a very good buy ??? So now we have seen the bounce if you go back on my post you will find one that says a big bull candle on the day chart . We have that so I think remember I think ??? It will come back to the bottom support on the day ?? Neck on the line mmmmmm 2170 area mmmmm that's red wine talking now lol but say it as you see it ??? The bond that is now happening with uk and Mr T should stop any trade below the low so we need to look at the day chart and its support which I think will be tried but long term if if it hits a low above the low I will be bucking sthong
