GBPUSD 5 Minute Chart – Held support
You can see by this chart why I posted “Support at 1.3010 blocks a return to 1.30 or below” (see prior post)
You can also see why I keep highlighting The Amazing Trader and it uncanny ability to identify key chart levels and patterns to trade
GBPUSD Daily
Supports : 1.29800 , 1.28750 & 1.27350
Resistances : 1.30800 , 1.31050 & 1.31750
If it doesn’t break 1.29800 within next 24h, we’ll be in for a sharp turn UP.
1.31050 still the Major point on the Upper side.
Pattern – Time Wise : this can be an ideal situation for the counter move – I am not saying it is going to happen for sure, but be aware !

4 Things You Need to Know
European bourses are mostly lower, with sentiment hit following poor LVMH/ASML results; the FTSE 100 leads after the region’s cooler-than-expected inflation metrics.
Dollar is flat, GBP is the clear underperformer after headline/services inflation figures declined more than expected.
Bonds continue to build on the prior day’s gains, with upside also fuelled by the aforementioned UK CPI report, which has led to clear outperformance in Gilts.
Crude is modestly lower, XAU/base metals both gain.

A look at the day ahead in U.S. and global markets from Mike Dolan
World markets struggled to find a footing on Wednesday after Europe’s ASML (ASML.AS), opens new tab sideswiped the global chip sector late yesterday with a surprisingly weak orders outlook and investors prayed the flub was a one-off as third-quarter earnings updates stream in.
There was better news for bond markets – with yields declining on a mix of falling oil prices and significant European disinflation that underscores expectations of another European Central Bank interest rate cut on Thursday.

EURGBP 4 HOUR CHART – NEWS MATTERS
The reaction to the weaker UK CPI has seen EURUGBP spike higher after failing to reach .8300-18, suggesting the bottom is in for now.
Key levels are at .8404 and .8434 so damage not yet fatal but certainly caught the shorts (ahead of the ECB) wrongfooted.
If you are wondering why EURUSD is lagging, look at this cross.
I am really nailing Sterling and Yen right now and it is important to understand I was a CTA on the phone filling orders through many houses with large contracts and the competition was intense, but you just behave solid. So I am seeing repetitive patters right now in these pairs and if you have any common sense I would pay attention. At times I will shout something like “long Yen” that means with your brokers you are selling Yen. It is very fast and there are major banks filling orders so you must be on you toes. That said, if you just relax you can see what they are doing.
Regarding Yen. I am waiting for them to run the figure and the stops and then come in hard on the buy side. Not nice Japanese data earlier at all.
Side note, reading the common sense post by Jay, is gold.
Dide note, listening to Mary Daly San Francisco Fed earlier I am fully convinced she is completely full of it and trying to make a duck look like an eagle.

They say a trader learns more from losing than winning but hopefully it is not to the extent that it wipes out one’s account.
