GBP USD Technical Analysis - GBP USD Trading: 2014-12-09


Industrial production

Today we consider GBP/USD currency pair on the H4 chart. The price is moving within the limits of D1 and H4 downtrend channel: bearish trend is observed for all the timeframe scales. Donchian Channel (13) is also demonstrating a negative bias, confirming the trend. At the moment there are no signs of a steady direction looking at the RSI-Bars oscillator: a channel was formed which has a high probability to be broken downwards at 26.48%. We believe that this signal would coincide with the price level crossing the fractal support at 1.55326. Having reached this level, we would get confirmatory signals: Parabolic values would indicate a bearish slope and Donchian channel would be destroyed. Stop Loss is recommended to be placed above 1.57323, strengthened by the Bill Williams fractal, Parabolic historical values and Donchian Channel upper boundary

After position opening, Stop Loss is to be moved after the Parabolic values, near the next fractal high. Updating is enough to be done every day after a new Bill Williams fractal formation (5 candlesticks). Thus, we are changing the probable profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point.
