Talking Points

  • Strategy: Short (From: 1.5700) Stop: 1.5800 (Daily Close) Target: 1.5585 Pending On Close Below 1.5585
  • Dark Cloud Cover Awaiting Confirmation Near Key Barrier
  • H4 Short Body Candle and Doji Medley Indicates Indecision

GBP/USD’s pullback from the 1.5800 barrier has left a Dark Cloud Cover formation in its wake. The bearish reversal signal may recast the risk lower towards the 1.5585 floor if confirmed by a successive down-day. This presents a fresh short-term range-trading opportunity with a stop above the nearby ceiling in case of an upside breakout.
