GBP Technical Analysis

Attachment 20038

The short setup at current would be an iteration of selling resistance at old support with not only the under-side of this bear flag, but also prior price action. The current price zone around 1.4152 is also the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the most recent major move, taking the February 2016 high-low range. This can open the door for stops to be cast just above the previous swing low, using the 1.4217 Fibonacci level as basis. Traders can look to place stops at 1.4225 with targets cast towards 1.4078 (prior price action swing low), 1.4031 (76.4% retracement of that same most recent major move), and then 1.3917 (the 27.2% extension of the prior major move).

To trade the reversal, traders can look to place stops below this recent batch of support, with the low being 154.39, set earlier today. Traders can move that stop slightly below those lows at ~154.25 to take on approximately 80 pips of risk with current prices. Traders can then plot a scale-out approach in the effort of getting the average exit of the reversal a bit higher. The first level of interest for profit targets is at another well-tested Fibonacci level at 156.35. Should price action move up here, which would be slightly better than a 1-to1.5 risk-reward ratio, traders can begin to scale out of the lot, moving the stop to break-even on the remainder. After that, 157.21 becomes an interesting level for a secondary target, followed by 159.05 for a tertiary target.
