I cannot understand. Everytime GBP goes on a run, it gets slammed down by 15 pips out of a sudden.

Looks like 1.24 is holding for now. But until Friday only I guess.

It is a bad sign it will come more down then. It was the same last time on the way Down t o 1.21. I also have in mind the big Shorter volume of the year in the area 1.2550 to 1.2410 last time

I see it other way. A big spike up is inevitable considering the ongoing price action. 1.2418 & 1.2400 (100 HMA, 100 DMA) is key which is holding so far throughout the day

Yeah, except that it is really weird that every GBP rally gets smack down fiercely.

It's almost as if there's some invisible hand that wants to smack GBP down.

Waiting to see if this strikes again and bring us to a new low of the day.

{quote} You see that supply zone at 2464. That is a good strong one. Break this and we may even see 2490.
Yeah , I didn't catch that..The supply there was pretty strong ...But I think we are going to test 1.2450 AGAIN ...Don't know what's going to happen from there ..I'm already out the market ..

Well, it's an interesting one. Also interesting that there's an equilibrium of Forex factory positions/sentiment on the home page!

This pair is dog tired 109 days we have been trying to get away from this level.
We break long and divergence sends it back. We break short and divergence sends it back..rinse and repeat.
Neither side has been able to break this deadlock.

So what happens is traders turn to better performers like the Yen crosses to grease their palms. This relaxes the pressure G/U as traders get out and we get a situation where even minor news can create a spark of activity of some magnitude.

What we are seeing is the institutions gradually reversing their positions. They are closing out their shorts and buying the bargains at the same time they have to keep the price as low as possible to keep getting those bargains. They make you think sell so they can buy. This is how all turnarounds work as positions are reversed, it takes a long time to reverse billions of dollars. We all know that these long flattish spots are precursors to large breakouts but which are false and which are for real is the question.

I don't want to get stuck on the wrong side of a major break so I will stick to very short term profit making.

I wouldn't call it a rule as such and it is a very slow process. Who knows they may just be taking profits and not even reversing. This is the problem, they are not going to tell you what they are doing, they decide in the board room and keep it very close to their chests.

All I am saying is watch out for sudden breaks in either direction.

Look what happened previously...

In the left blue box every man and his dog was thinking bottom and buying, then boom no quarter given all the stops were taken out big time.

Now traders are wary and reluctant to go long so it takes longer.
