The weekly technical levels of GBP/USD pair:
Pivot point:
- R3 and S3 are considered to be clear indicators of the maximum range of extreme volatility, though it is possible to pass them through.
- Pivot lines work well in the sideways markets, as the prices are most likely to be situated between the R1 and S1 lines.
- Within a strong trend, the price is expected to be lower than the pivot point line and continue moving.
- If the breaking news release may affect the market, the price is likely to go straight through R1 or S1 and even reach R2 and R3 or S2 and S3.
Observations :
- If the trend is buoyant, then the strength of the currency pair will be defined as following: GBP is in uptrend and USD is in downtrend.
- Fibonacci retracement is used for the determination of accurate psychological levels of support and resistance. The period of time should be taken into account.
- Fibonacci is in a range trade; it looks like the trend is trapped moving up or down. If you sell or buy in the long-term period, you will surely lose your profit.
- Stop loss should never exceed your maximum exposure amounts.
- As a rule, the market is highly volatile if the previous day had a huge volatility.
