GBP/USD has continued to fall during the current trading week and after very negative UK Manufacturing PMI report currency pair dropped for about 150 pips and closed on Friday at 1.5037.

It's seen on hourly graph that after huge down movement which took place on Friday Stochastic Oscillator turned up demonstrating possible up movement. But it can be only considered as correction signal.

It's also important to know that currency pair crossed support area close to 1.5090 which was a real barrier for bears.

Investors now can expect short-term uptrend to 1.5070-1.5090 and continue of downtrend again to 1.4900.

Nice analysis Abdul and I think if price makes over 5051 and may be 56 then its worth carrying on taking a buy with a first target in that 5080 -90 area with a small stop. I then think under 5090 or 5125 it might be worth looking for sells again - all depending on the session times and OB position according to your stochs and similar clues. If we were then stay above 5050 and 5080 - we may be trying to turn higher - but that would be more more obvious nearer the time 

Have a great March trading month

Regards 

Peter

But if a daily close above 1.5080/90 then moves to 1.58 ....?

Hi Abdul,  

Thanks for the analysis - this is absolutely my view as well, looking to sell at the 5065 area for a profit 4915.

Clearly I need to keep an eye on your posts!!

Thanks again :-)

It might be Pavel - but I am more a step by step trader and so if we had a daily close above 5090 and rises over 5130 - my next target would be the 5185 - 5220 area - as shown on Abdul's charts with a long line of one hr candle highs. If we then did not go back down under 5080 etc - that would be encouraging for more of a turn and higher again. I would agree though with Jasmine if we fail to go over 90 and back under 5000 then there is a good chance of testing the 4985 low and lower again
