Downtrend, momentum fading into the session low · RSI 39 · price 1.33064

Lower highs from 1.3334, lows compressing near 1.3302.

London opened with a break below the Asian range low at 1.3326. Through NY the pair carved lower highs from the 1.3334 London high, set by the 1.3320 swing high and a descending trendline, as pre-Fed USD demand and UK Budget caution weighed. Post-NY trade has compressed into a 4-pip band just above the 1.3302 session low, with RSI(14) near 39 and ATR shrinking.

Support: 1.33022, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33342

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3302 session low and 1.3300 round number extends the lower-low chain
  • Close above the descending lower-highs line and the 1.3320 swing high breaks the lower-high sequence
  • Recovery through the 1.3334 London high would neutralise the intraday downtrend read
  • UK Budget Wed ~10:00 UTC and FOMC 18:00 UTC could materially shift this read; Asian range likely thin beforehand

23:32 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading · RSI 32 · price 1.33049

Lower highs below Asian low, lows compressing at 1.3302.

GBPUSD broke the 1.3326 Asian low early in London and has since printed a chain of lower highs (1.3334, 1.3332, 1.3320, 1.3318) along a descending trendline. Pre-Fed/Budget USD demand capped each bounce. The 1.3302 day low has held through a thin 5-pip post-NY range just above the 1.3300 round number, with RSI(14) near 32 and lows only grinding marginally lower.

Support: 1.33022, 1.3300, 1.3290

Resistance: 1.33072, 1.33196, 1.33258

What it said to watch

  • Close below the 1.3302 day low extends the lower-low chain toward the 1.3300 round number and the 1.3290 range floor
  • Hold above the 1.3307 post-NY high and a move through the 1.3320 lower high breaks the descending trendline structure
  • Reclaim of the 1.3326 Asian low invalidates the intraday downtrend read
  • UK Budget (~10:00 UTC Wed) and FOMC (18:00 UTC Wed) could materially shift this read

23:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading into thin trade · RSI 40 · price 1.33061

Lower highs from 1.3334, marginal lower lows, late compression.

The chain of lower highs from the 1.3334 midday high stayed intact. The NY-hours sell-off after firm US confidence data, with pre-Fed USD demand behind it, extended to a 1.3302 session low. Price is now compressing in a 1.3302–1.3307 band as the Asia session opens, RSI(14) near 40 and ATR about 3 pips.

Support: 1.33022, 1.3300, 1.3290

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33342

What it said to watch

  • A close below the 1.3302 session low exposes the 1.3300 round number and the 1.3290 range floor
  • A recovery above the 1.3320 lower high breaks the lower-high chain and puts the 50–61.8% retrace of the drop from the midday high in play
  • UK Budget (~10:00 UTC Wed) and the FOMC decision (18:00 UTC) could materially shift this read

22:47 UTC

Downtrend, momentum flattening · RSI 42 · price 1.33063

Lower highs and lower lows since the Asia-open high; compressing above the day low.

Steady slide from the 1.3349 Asia-open high: London broke the Asian low near 1.3326, and NY capped rallies at the 1.3334 NY high and then at the 1.3318 lower high as firm US data and pre-Fed USD demand weighed. Price is now drifting just above the 1.3302 day low in thin post-NY trade, with RSI(14) neutral near 42 and ATR(14) down to about 3.5 pips.

Support: 1.33022, 1.3290

Resistance: 1.3318, 1.33342

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3302 day low extends the lower-low chain toward the 1.3290 range floor
  • Recovery above the 1.3318 lower high (50% of the ny leg fib) breaks the lower-highs trendline sequence
  • Reclaiming the 1.3334 ny high invalidates the intraday downtrend read
  • UK Budget Wed ~10:00 UTC and FOMC 18:00 UTC could materially shift this read

22:32 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading into the close · RSI 37 · price 1.33053

Lower highs from 1.3334; shallow lower lows compressing at the day low.

GBPUSD broke below the Asian low near 1.3329 into London. It then carved lower highs at the 1.3334 NY swing high and 1.3318 as firm US data and pre-Fed USD demand weighed. Price is now idling at the 1.3302 day low in thin post-NY trade, with RSI(14) near 37 and each new low only marginally lower.

Support: 1.33022, 1.3300, 1.3290

Resistance: 1.3318, 1.3329, 1.33342

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3302 day low exposes the 1.3300 round number and the 1.3290 range floor
  • Recovery above the 1.3318 lower high, near the 38.2% fib, breaks the lower-high sequence
  • Reclaim of the 1.3329 Asian low and the 1.3334 NY swing high would invalidate the intraday downtrend read
  • UK Budget (~10:00 UTC Wed) and FOMC (18:00 UTC Wed) could materially shift this read

22:16 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading into late NY · RSI 36 · price 1.33052

Lower highs since London; lows grinding marginally lower near 1.3302.

London broke the asian low at 1.3326 and every bounce since has stalled at a lower high (1.3334 london high, 1.3332, 1.3320). NY pushed to a session low at 1.3302 on firm US data and pre-Fed USD demand. Thin post-NY trade is compressing just above the 1.3300 round number, with RSI(14) near 36 and ATR at about 4 pips.

Support: 1.3302, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3320, 1.3326, 1.3334

What it said to watch

  • Failure to hold the 1.3302 session low and the 1.3300 round number extends the lower-low sequence
  • An M15 close above the 1.3320 lower high and the falling trendline breaks the descending structure
  • Reclaim of the 1.3326 asian low would put the 1.3334 london high back in play
  • UK Budget ~10:00 UTC Wed and FOMC 18:00 UTC Wed could materially shift this read

22:02 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 38 · price 1.33069

Lower highs and lower lows through London and NY, fresh day low in early Asia.

GBPUSD ground lower from the 1.3349 Asian high, with each rally capped lower: 1.3334 session high, then 1.3319 swing high. The pre-Fed USD bid and UK Budget caution are weighing, and late NY gave up the 1.3307 London low to print a 1.3302 day low. RSI(14) near 38 is soft but not oversold, and early Asia is drifting in a tight 4-pip ATR range above the round number.

Support: 1.33022, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33342, 1.33488

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3319 swing high breaks the lower-high sequence
  • Rebound stalling at the 50–61.8% session high fib (1.3318–1.3322) keeps the lower-high structure intact
  • Loss of 1.3300 round number exposes the 1.3290 range floor flagged in the macro digest
  • UK Budget Wed ~10:00 UTC and FOMC 18:00 UTC could materially shift this read

21:47 UTC

Downtrend, fresh day low late session · RSI 31 · price 1.3304

Lower highs and lower lows through London and NY, Asian range lost at London open.

GBP/USD broke below the 1.3326 Asian low at London open and has since printed lower highs from the 1.3334 NY high, a falling trendline capping the late-NY 1.3318 lower high. Pre-Fed USD buying took price to a fresh day low at 1.3302 after the NY close, RSI(14) near 31 and ATR around 4 pips in thin post-NY trade, with the 1.3290 range floor just below.

Support: 1.3302, 1.3290

Resistance: 1.3318, 1.3326, 1.3334

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3290 range floor extends the lower-low sequence beneath the range flagged into the Budget
  • Recovery above the 1.3318 lower high and the falling trendline breaks the lower-high chain; 1.3326 Asian low then the 1.3334 NY high above
  • Day low at 1.3302 is the first test; a hold there during Asia session keeps price in the 1.3302–1.3318 band
  • UK Budget ~10:00 UTC Wed and FOMC 18:00 UTC could materially shift this read

21:31 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 38 · price 1.33047

Lower-high sequence since London; fresh day low set late in NY hours.

Cable printed a fresh day low at 1.3303 late in NY hours. That extends the lower-high chain off the 1.3334 London high as USD strength held into Wednesday's UK Budget and FOMC. Price sits under the descending trendline and both EMAs in thin post-close trade, RSI(14) near 38.

Support: 1.33027, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33342

What it said to watch

  • Loss of the 1.3303 day low brings the 1.3300 round number into play
  • M15 close above the 1.3320 lower high breaks the descending trendline and the lower-high chain
  • Reclaim of the 1.3334 london high would put price back into the 1.3307–1.3349 band cited in the macro read
  • UK Budget Wed 10:00 UTC and FOMC 18:00 UTC could materially shift this read

20:32 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs through NY · RSI 40 · price 1.33085

Lower highs since the 14:00 UTC spike, lows holding near 1.3305.

Cable broke below the 1.3326 Asian range low at London open. Firm US data then capped the 14:00 UTC us data high at 1.3332, leaving lower highs through NY as the dollar stayed bid. Late-NY trade has faded the 1.3320 lower high back to 1.3309, just above the 1.3305 day low, with ATR compressed near 5 pips.

Support: 1.33045, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33317

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3305 day low extends the lower-low sequence toward the 1.3300 round number
  • Close above the 1.3320 lower high and the lower highs trendline invalidates the intraday downtrend read; the 1.3332 us data high sits above

20:02 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading late NY · RSI 49 · price 1.33143

Lower highs from Asia high; compressing 1.3305–1.3320.

London open broke the 1.3326 Asian range low. Each later rally then set a lower high, from 1.3349 to the 1.3334 lower high and 1.3332, as firm US durables and confidence data kept USD bid. The NY day low at 1.3305 drew a higher low at 1.3308. The bounce stalled at the fib 50% near 1.3320, and price is now coiling around 1.3314 into the post-NY lull.

Support: 1.33076, 1.33045

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33342

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 1.3320 fib 50% breaks the lower-high sequence and opens 1.3334
  • Failure to hold the 1.3308 higher low exposes the 1.3305 day low

19:47 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading late NY · RSI 51 · price 1.33173

Lower highs from 1.3334; late-NY base 1.3308–1.3320.

London broke the Asian low at 1.3326, and NY extended to a 1.3305 session low. Firm US durables and confidence data drove the USD bid, while rallies faded at the 1.3334 NY high, 1.3332 and 1.3327. Late NY has printed a higher low at 1.3308 and is stalling near the 50% fib of the NY drop at 1.3320, with RSI(14) neutral at 51 and ATR compressed to about 5 pips.

Support: 1.33076, 1.33045

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33262, 1.33342

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 1.3320 fib 50% breaks the lower-high sequence and exposes the 1.3326 asian low
  • Loss of the 1.3308 higher low and the 1.3305 session low resumes the lower-low chain
  • Rejection at 1.3326 asian low keeps the London breakdown intact
  • UK Budget Wed 10:00 UTC and FOMC 18:00 UTC could materially reset this read; Asia session likely thin into them

19:32 UTC

Intraday downtrend, late-NY bounce stalling · RSI 55 · price 1.33165

Lower highs from the NY high, higher low forming at 1.3308.

Cable has traded below the Asian range low (1.3326) since the London open on USD demand after firm US data. NY rallies to the 1.3334 NY high and to 1.3332 were both rejected, and the move set a 1.3305 day low. After London close price built a higher low at 1.3308 and is now pinned at the 38.2% fib, under the 1.3320 swing high and the 61.8% fib at 1.3323.

Support: 1.33076, 1.33045

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33229, 1.33342

19:17 UTC

Intraday downtrend, pausing into late NY · RSI 53 · price 1.33168

Lower highs from London high; higher low off the session low.

GBP/USD broke the 1.3326 Asian low early in London and later slid from the 1.3334 London high to a 1.3305 session low in NY hours. Firm US data (durables, Conference Board confidence) drove the USD bid, and the low briefly undercut the 1.3307 range low cited in the digest. After London close, price is compressing between a 1.3308 higher low and the 1.3320 lower high, which sits at the 50% retrace of the London high–NY low leg. RSI(14) is neutral near 53.

Support: 1.33076, 1.33045

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33258, 1.33342

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3320 lower high breaks the lower-high sequence and puts the 1.3326 Asian low back in view
  • Failure at the higher-low line and a break below the 1.3305 session low resumes the downtrend leg toward 1.3290
  • Holding above the 38.2% retrace near 1.3316 keeps the current pause intact
  • UK Budget (Wed 10:00 UTC) and FOMC (Wed 18:00 UTC) could materially shift this read; thin post-NY liquidity until then

19:02 UTC

Intraday downtrend, momentum stalling · RSI 47 · price 1.33127

Lower highs since NY open, coiling above session low.

London open broke the Asian range low near 1.3326, and NY extended to a session low at 1.3305 as USD firmed on the durables and confidence beats. NY rallies failed at the 1.3334 NY high and 1.3332, and the bounce off 1.3305 met rejection at the fib 50% near 1.3320. Late NY is coiling between a higher low at 1.3308 and a lower high at 1.3316, with RSI(14) neutral at 47.

London open broke the 1.3326 Asian low. Price has printed lower highs since, with the 1.3305 day low set during NY hours on firm US data and pre-FOMC USD demand. The late-NY bounce stalled at the 1.3320 lower high (50% retrace), and price now sits on the descending trendline near 1.3313, just above the 1.3308 swing low, with RSI(14) at 45.

Downtrend, late-NY basing · RSI 38 · price 1.33113

Lower highs since the NY-open spike; day low 1.3305 holding.

Price broke below the 1.3326–1.3349 Asian range (asian high 1.3349) at London open. The NY-open spike to the 1.3334 ny high was rejected as the Durable Goods beat and firm CB Consumer Confidence lifted USD, and every rally since has printed a lower high. Late in NY, price is basing above the 1.3305 day low, with the bounce capped at the 50% fib and lower high near 1.3320. RSI(14) sits at 38.

Lower highs at 1.3334 and 1.3320 below the Asian range; session low 1.3305.

London open broke the Asian range (1.3326–1.3349) to the downside. NY then printed lower highs at the 1.3334 NY high and 1.3320, and a fresh session low at 1.3305, as pre-FOMC USD buying after firm Durable Goods and Consumer Confidence data weighed on the pair. The late-NY bounce stalled at the 50% retrace of that leg, and price is back near the lows after London close with RSI(14) ~38, not stretched.

Support: 1.33045, 1.3300, 1.3290

Resistance: 1.33196, 1.33258, 1.33342

Downtrend, late-NY bounce stalling · RSI 42 · price 1.33164

Lower highs since Asia, marginal lower low at 1.3305.

London broke the Asian range at the open, and NY extended to a 1.3305 session low after firm US data (Durable Goods, CB Confidence) lifted the dollar. A sequence of lower highs at 1.3346, the 1.3334 London high and the 1.3332 lower high caps a descending trendline. The after-London-close bounce stalled at 1.3320, the 50% retrace of the 1.3334–1.3305 leg, with price pinned at EMA20 and holding above the 1.3314 NY low.

Intraday downtrend, bouncing off day low · RSI 41 · price 1.33157

Lower highs since Asia, NY sweep of London low then retrace.

The Asian range (1.3333–1.3349) gave way before London open, and firm US durables and CB confidence kept a falling trendline of lower highs intact through NY. NY swept the London low to a day low at 1.3305, and the bounce stalled at the 50% fib near 1.3320 (bounce high). Price is now at the 38.2% fib, just under EMA20, with RSI(14) near 41.

  • A close above the 1.3334 lower high breaks the lower-high sequence.
  • Failure to hold the 1.3305 day low confirms a lower-low and exposes the 1.3290 range floor.
  • After London close, liquidity thins into Wednesday's UK Budget (~10:00 UTC) and FOMC (18:00 UTC), the next likely catalysts.

17:17 UTC

Intraday downtrend, bouncing off session low · RSI 54 · price 1.33175

Lower highs since London midday; 1.3305 session low reclaimed after a marginal break.

GBP/USD extended its slide below the 1.3349 asian high through London and NY on a firm-US-data USD bid. The US data spike to 1.3332 was sold into a 1.3305 session low, a marginal sweep of the morning low. After London close, price has recovered to the 50% retrace of the NY drop near 1.3318 and is sitting on ema20, with the 1.3321 lower high just overhead.

  • Failure back below the 1.3305 session low exposes the 1.3300 round number and the 1.3290 range floor

Downtrend, late-NY bounce stalling · RSI 45 · price 1.33139

Lower highs since Asian high; marginal lower low at 1.3305.

Price slipped from the Asian high at 1.3349 and broke the bottom of the Asian range at London open. The NY spike on firm US data (CB Confidence 91.7) was rejected under the 1.3334 lower high before a fresh day low at 1.3305. The bounce after London close is stalling at the 38.2% fib of that drop, just under the ema20 near 1.3318; RSI(14) is near 45 and ATR(14) is about 7.5 pips.

Lower highs from 1.3334 into a fresh session low at 1.3305; small bounce after London close.

GBPUSD broke below the Asian range low near 1.3326 at the London open. Through NY it has printed lower highs from the 1.3334 NY high, with firm US Consumer Confidence and durables keeping USD bid. A new session low at 1.3305 printed after London close, and the minor bounce is capped below the 1.3321 lower high (near the 61.8% retrace) with RSI(14) around 42.

Intraday downtrend, pressing session lows · RSI 33 · price 1.33065

Lower highs since 1.3334, new low below London low.

Late in the NY session the pair is printing a fresh session low at 1.3305, below the 1.3307 London low. Firm US data drove the move: the CB Consumer Confidence spike to 1.3332 met rejection under the 1.3334 midday high, and a chain of lower highs down to 1.3321 followed. RSI(14) near 33 is soft but not oversold, and the 38.2% level of the midday drop fib sits around 1.3316, just under that lower high.

Cable bled lower from the Asian high at 1.3349, broke the Asian range in early London and set a London low at 1.3307 as USD short-covering into the FOMC extended. The rebound met rejection at the London high of 1.3334, and NY has printed lower highs (1.3332, then 1.3327) into a flat NY base near 1.3314, where price sits late in the London-NY overlap with RSI(14) near 40 and price below EMA20 and EMA50.

GBPUSD broke below the 1.3326 Asian range low at London open and found a London low at 1.3307, extending the USD short-covering ahead of the Fed. Since then rising lows at 1.3314 and the 1.3317 NY low, near the 61.8% of the London leg, have held, while the 1.3332–1.3334 session high has capped twice.

Cable has recovered about 27 pips from the 1.3307 London session low on a chain of higher lows along a rising trendline.

London broke below the 1.3326 asian low and set a 1.3307 session low as USD short-covering into FOMC extended GBP's slide below 1.3320. Price is bouncing back under the fib 38.2 at 1.3323 with RSI(14) near 40, and the lower-high chain from the Asian high is intact.

Downtrend, bounce stalling · RSI 40 · price 1.33141

Lower highs and lows through London after a break below the Asian range.

London broke below the 1.3326–1.3349 Asian range at the open and pushed to a 1.3307 session low, with USD short-covering into FOMC driving the leg. The bounce high at 1.3320 lines up with the 23.6% fib of the 1.3359–1.3307 leg and has been rejected mid-London, with RSI(14) near 40.

Support: 1.3307, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3320, 1.3326, 1.3349

Downtrend, bouncing off session low · RSI 38 · price 1.33162

Lower highs since Asian high, Asian range broken lower in London.

London broke below the Asian low at 1.3326 and the prior-day low, extending the lower-high chain to a London low of 1.3307 as USD firmed ahead of Wednesday's FOMC and UK Budget. Late in the London session, a 10-pip bounce is capped at the bounce high of 1.3320, where it meets the descending trendline. RSI(14) sits near 38, not stretched.

Support: 1.33068, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.33195, 1.33258, 1.33488

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the descending trendline and the 1.3320 bounce high breaks the lower-high chain
  • Reclaim of the 1.3326 Asian low puts price back inside the Asian range and turns the break into a false break; 1.3349 Asian high is the range top
  • Failure to hold the 1.3307 London low opens the 1.3300 round number

Downtrend, oversold bounce stalling · RSI 35 · price 1.33152

Asian range broken lower at London open; lower highs intact.

London broke the 1.3329–1.3349 Asian range lower at the open and extended to a 1.3307 session low, below Monday's 1.3327 low, as pre-FOMC USD short-covering kept the pair heavy. The bounce stalled at 1.3319, near the 38.2% level of the London leg fib, with the descending highs line still capping and RSI(14) near 35.

Support: 1.3307, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3319, 1.3329, 1.3349

What it said to watch

  • A close back above the 1.3329 asian low returns price to the Asian range and negates the break.
  • Rejection at the 1.3319 bounce high and a break of the 1.3307 session low extend the lower-low chain toward the 1.3300 round number.
  • A close above the descending highs line near 1.3322 breaks the London lower-high sequence.
  • US Durable Goods (12:30 UTC) and Consumer Confidence (14:00 UTC) during NY hours can expand the session range; Wednesday's Budget and FOMC are the larger risk.

Intraday downtrend, extended · RSI 24 · price 1.33094

Lower highs since London open, Asian range low broken.

London open broke the Asian low at 1.3326 and has printed a steady chain of lower highs under a falling trendline. The 1.3320 prior lows have also given way, and the session low now sits at 1.3307. The move tracks the pre-FOMC USD bid flagged in the digest, with RSI(14) near 24, stretched but not at an extreme.

Support: 1.3307, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3320, 1.3326, 1.3349

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the 1.3320 prior lows and the falling trendline would stall the lower-high sequence

  • Failure to hold the 1.3307 session low exposes the 1.3300 round number
  • US Durable Goods at 12:30 UTC, then Consumer Confidence at 14:00, could shift this read during NY hours

Asian range broken lower, lower-high chain since 07:00 UTC.

GBPUSD slipped below the Asian range and Monday's 1.3327 prior low as pre-FOMC USD short-covering extended. It printed a session low at 1.3311 in the second hour of London after breaking the 07:00 UTC low at 1.3316. Lower highs have capped every bounce since 07:00 UTC, the 1.3359–1.3311 decline has seen no meaningful retracement, and RSI(14) near 28 is stretched but not extreme.

Support: 1.3311, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3316, 1.3327, 1.3349

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the 1.3327 prior low neutralises the breakdown read

Lower highs since yesterday's 1.3359 NY high carried GBP/USD below the Asian range and the 1.3327 prior low into the day low at 1.3316 before London, with pre-FOMC USD short-covering driving the leg. London is so far holding a tight 1.3317–1.3329 band under the descending line and below both EMAs, RSI(14) near 34.

Support: 1.3316, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3327, 1.3334

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3316 day low extends the lower-low chain toward the 1.3300 round number

Asian range broken lower at London open; lower highs from 1.3329, lows holding 1.3316-1.3317.

Cable broke below the Asian range and yesterday's 1.3327 NY low at the London open, printing a 1.3316 session low as pre-FOMC USD short-covering extended. The bounce stalled at the 1.3329 london high, the 38.2% retrace of the asian high-to-session low drop, and lower highs have followed since with RSI(14) near 33.

Support: 1.3316, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3329, 1.3333, 1.3349

What it said to watch

  • Reclaim of 1.3349 asian high would negate the range-break read

Downtrend, momentum stalling above session low · RSI 33 · price 1.3323

Lower highs since Asian high; tight consolidation after London open low.

GBPUSD slipped below the 1.3333–1.3349 Asian range before London as USD short-covering into FOMC extended. London open pushed to 1.3316 and has since held a higher low at 1.3320. The falling trendline is capping bounces under the 1.3329 London high, with RSI(14) near 33.

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3329 London high and falling trendline breaks the lower-high sequence

Downtrend, compressing near lows · RSI 33 · price 1.3323

Lower highs since late NY, base forming 1.3316-1.3320.

Lower highs since yesterday's 1.3359 peak. The Asian session bled from its 1.3349 asian high, and early London broke the 1.3333 broken base to print a 1.3316 london low before stalling at the 38.2% fib near 1.3329. Price is compressing just above a 1.3320 intraday base with RSI(14) near 33, and the drift reflects pre-FOMC USD short-covering rather than GBP-specific selling.

Support: 1.3320, 1.3316

Resistance: 1.3329, 1.3333, 1.3349

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the 1.3333 broken base invalidates the lower-high sequence

  • Repeated rejection at the 38.2% fib (1.3329) keeps the intraday base under pressure
  • US Durable Goods 12:30 UTC and Conference Board Confidence 14:00 UTC could shift this read in the NY session

Downtrend, lower highs since Asia · RSI 31 · price 1.33236

Asian range broken lower, London open testing session low.

GBPUSD slipped out of the 1.3333–1.3349 Asian range before London open, taking out Monday's NY low at 1.3327 and printing a session low at 1.3316 as pre-FOMC USD short-covering extended. The rebound stalled at the 1.3329 bounce high, just under the 38.2% fib of the Asia-London drop, and the London open bar is pressing the lows with RSI(14) near 31.

Support: 1.3316, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3329, 1.3349

What it said to watch

  • Loss of the 1.3316 session low exposes the 1.3300 round number
  • An M15 close back above the 1.3329 bounce high and the 1.3333 Asian low negates the range break
  • Recovery to the 1.3349 asian high would erase the overnight drop

Asian range broken lower, bounce capped at fib 38.2.

Pre-London selling broke the 1.3333–1.3349 Asian range and the prior-day low, printing a session low at 1.3316. The pullback faded at the fib 38.2 near 1.3329, keeping the lower-highs line intact into London open. This fits the digest: USD short-covering into FOMC, not GBP-specific selling.

Support: 1.3316, 1.3300

Resistance: 1.3329, 1.3333, 1.3349

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the asia low at 1.3333 would break the lower-highs line and return price to the Asian range
  • Failure to hold the 1.3316 session low extends the lower-low chain toward the 1.3300 round number
  • Asia high at 1.3349 caps any recovery; only a reclaim there neutralises the downtrend read
  • US Durable Goods at 12:30 UTC, then Conference Board confidence at 14:00, could shift USD tone during NY hours

Intraday downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 35 · price 1.33278

LH/LL chain from 1.3359; Asian range broken lower at London open.

London open broke the Asian low near 1.3330 and swept to 1.3316 under the prior NY low at 1.3327. That extends the lower-high chain off the 1.3359 swing high as pre-FOMC dollar short-covering continues. Price is back on the prior NY low in the first hour of London, RSI(14) near 35 and not stretched.

Asia lower highs from 1.3349; early London broke Monday's low to 1.3316 and reclaimed it.

Asia printed lower highs from the 1.3349 asia high as pre-FOMC dollar short-covering kept GBP heavy. Early London pushed through the asia low and Monday's 1.3327 prior low to a 1.3316 session low, then snapped back above 1.3327. The bounce is stalling at the 38.2% fib retrace, with RSI(14) near 35 and price under both EMAs.

Support: 1.33273, 1.3316

Resistance: 1.33326, 1.33488

Lower highs from NY high; Asian range broken lower.

Late Asia slipped through the Asian range low at 1.3333 and is pressing Monday's low at 1.3327, with RSI(14) near 30. A chain of lower highs from the 1.3359 NY high has capped every bounce, and the pre-FOMC USD short-covering that took out 1.3340 support is still the driver.

The slide reflects pre-FOMC USD short-covering rather than GBP-specific selling and has taken out the 1.3340 area flagged as support. RSI(14) sits near 31.

Intraday downtrend, flattening in Asia · RSI 46 · price 1.3340

Lower high at 1.3359, tight Asian range above Monday low.

Monday's dollar-led slide bottomed at the 1.3327 prior low, and the NY rebound stalled at 1.3359, a lower high. Price has since faded into a 1.3333–1.3349 Asian range and sits mid-range at 1.3340, just under EMA20/50, with RSI(14) neutral near 46 and ATR(14) a thin ~3.6 pips ahead of London open. The 61.8% retrace of the NY high-to-Asian low leg lines up with the Asian high.

  • US durable goods at 12:30 UTC and consumer confidence at 14:00 UTC could break the Asian range during NY hours

Sideways after a USD-driven slide · RSI 51 · price 1.33413

Tight Asian range 1.3333–1.3349 above the 1.3327 NY low.

Late Asia session: GBPUSD is boxed inside a 1.3333–1.3349 Asian range after yesterday's USD-driven slide, as dollar shorts were trimmed ahead of the FOMC, to a 1.3327 NY low. Price is holding between the 50% and 61.8% of the NY rebound fib (1.3327–1.3359). ATR(14) has compressed to about 4 pips and RSI(14) is flat near 51, so no setup is in play.

Support: 1.33326, 1.33273

Resistance: 1.33452, 1.33488, 1.33588

What it said to watch

  • Break of the 1.3333 asian low, near the 1.3340 pivot cited in the market digest, exposes the 1.3327 ny low
  • A close above the 1.3345 range top and the 1.3349 asian high reopens the 1.3359 ny high
  • London open in about 2.5h is likely to set direction out of the compressed Asian range
  • US Durable Goods at 12:30 UTC is the next scheduled USD catalyst for this read

Sideways after Monday's USD-led drop · RSI 50 · price 1.3343

Asian range compressing: lower highs vs higher lows.

Monday's dollar bid ahead of FOMC drove GBPUSD to a 1.3327 monday low at the NY open. The late-NY rebound stalled at the 1.3359 ny high. Asia is coiling between the 1.3333 asian low and the 1.3349 asian high, with lower highs near 1.3345 and a higher low at 1.3338. Price is flat around the EMAs, RSI(14) is near 50 and ATR is only about 4.5 pips ahead of the London open.

Support: 1.3338, 1.3333, 1.3327

Resistance: 1.3345, 1.3349, 1.3359

What it said to watch

  • Close below the 1.3333 asian low breaks the higher low sequence and exposes the 1.3327 monday low, near the 1.3340 pivot cited in the GBP digest
  • Close above the lower highs and the 1.3349 asian high opens a retest of the 1.3359 ny high
  • US Durable Goods (12:30 UTC) and Consumer Confidence (14:00 UTC) could break the compression during NY hours

  • A break of the 1.3333 asian low exposes the 1.3327 ny low and ends the higher-low sequence
  • A close above the 1.3349 asian high breaks the lower-high trendline and brings the 1.3359 ny high into play
  • London open in about 3h is the likely trigger to resolve the compression
  • US Durable Goods at 12:30 UTC and Consumer Confidence at 14:00 UTC could reset the intraday range

Down-leg from London, now flat in Asia · RSI 49 · price 1.3344

Asian range 1.3333–1.3349 under lower highs.

London sold GBPUSD from 1.3380, and the NY open extended the drop to a 1.3327 NY low as USD shorts were covered ahead of FOMC. The rebound stalled at the 1.3359 NY high and lower highs have followed since. Asia is boxed between the 1.3333 Asian low, defended twice, and the 1.3349 Asian high, with price pressing the lower-highs line near the range top.

Resistance: 1.3349, 1.3359

Lower highs from 1.3359; tight Asian range 1.3333–1.3349.

Pre-FOMC USD short-covering drove the London-NY slide from 1.3381 to the 1.3327 ny low. The rebound stalled at the 1.3359 ny high, about 60% retraced on the ny swing fib, and lower highs have capped since. Mid-Asia, price sits at 1.3340 inside a 1.3333–1.3349 Asian range, below both EMAs with RSI(14) near 43.

Support: 1.3333, 1.3327

Resistance: 1.3349, 1.3359

What it said to watch

  • Failure to hold the 1.3333 asian low exposes the 1.3327 ny low and the 1.3340 pivot zone
  • A close above the 1.3349 asian high breaks the lower-highs line and brings the 1.3359 ny high into view
  • US durable goods and consumer confidence in today's NY session are the last pre-Fed inputs

Lower highs below Monday's NY high; Asian range 1.3333–1.3349 intact.

GBP/USD is drifting mid-Asian range after Monday's USD short-covering slide into the FOMC. The Asian bounce from the 1.3333 asian low stalled at the 1.3346 swing high, the 50% retrace of the drop from the 1.3359 ny high, keeping a lower-high sequence on the descending trendline. RSI(14) sits near 46 with price under both EMAs, and Monday's 1.3327 ny low holds as the floor.

  • Close above the 1.3349 asian high and the descending trendline breaks the lower-high sequence, opening the path to the 1.3359 ny high
  • London open is likely to set the session range; the 1.3346 swing high is the first rejection point
  • US Durable Goods at 12:30 UTC and pre-FOMC USD positioning could materially shift this read

Mild downtrend, lower highs, momentum flat · RSI 47 · price 1.33398

Asian range 1.3333–1.3349 under a descending line from the NY high.

  • M15 close above the 1.3349 asia high shifts focus back to the 1.3359 ny high, the top of the NY rebound
  • Price is sitting near the 61.8% retrace of the NY rebound; acceptance below it weakens that bounce

Lower highs vs higher low, coiling 1.3327–1.3359.

The rebound capped at the 1.3359 ny high, and price has since printed lower highs along the lower-high line.

Lower highs inside 1.3327–1.3359 range.

Early Asia has given back the NY rebound to the 61.8% retracement near 1.3339. Lower highs from the 1.3359 NY high through the 1.3349 Asian high frame a descending trendline. The 1.3333 Asian low has held twice overnight, but USD short-covering into the Fed keeps GBP heavy below the 1.3350 pivot.

London open broke Monday's Asian range and the NY open extended the slide to the 1.3327 NY low as USD shorts were trimmed into FOMC. The rebound stalled at the 1.3359 NY high, near the 50% fib of the Asia high-to-NY low drop and on the falling trendline. Price has since drifted back to the 1.3340 london low area and sits flat in early Asia.
