Down on the day, flat in late session · RSI 46 · price 1.33423

Lower high at 1.3359 after 1.3327 day low; tight post-NY drift.

London broke the asian low at 1.3367 and NY extended the drop to a 1.3327 day low as USD shorts were trimmed ahead of Wednesday's FOMC. The bounce stalled at the 1.3359 rebound high and price has faded back to the 50% retrace near 1.3342, holding the 1.3340 round number and the 1.3334 spike low in quiet post-NY trade.

Support: 1.3340, 1.33335, 1.33273

Resistance: 1.33491, 1.33588, 1.33671

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3340 round number and 1.3334 spike low exposes the 1.3327 day low
  • Close above the 1.3349 lower high reopens the 1.3359 rebound high
  • Retest of the 1.3367 asian low from below marks the upper edge of the post-break structure
  • US Durable Goods Tue 12:30 UTC; UK Budget and FOMC on Wed are the larger catalysts for this read

Downtrend, compressing post-NY · RSI 42 · price 1.33422

Lower high at 1.3359 after London/NY selloff; tight 1.3340–1.3343 coil in early Asia.

Cable slid from the 1.3387 Asian high through London as USD shorts were trimmed into FOMC, bottoming at the 1.3327 NY low; the NY bounce was rejected at 1.3359 near the 50% retracement, leaving a lower high. Price now coils at 1.3340–1.3343 in early Asia, just above the 1.3340 psych level and the 1.3333 rollover low, with ATR down to ~2.6 pips.

Support: 1.3340, 1.33335, 1.33273

Resistance: 1.3350, 1.33588, 1.33873

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3333 rollover low exposes the 1.3327 NY low
  • Reclaim of the 1.3350 pivot reopens the 1.3359 lower high; a break there invalidates the lower-high read
  • Thin Asian range likely until US Durable Goods (Tue 12:30 UTC); Wed UK Budget and FOMC are the larger structural risks

23:17 UTC

Intraday downtrend, momentum fading into Asia · RSI 34 · price 1.3341

Lower highs from 1.3387 Asian high; holding above 1.3327 NY low.

Pre-FOMC USD short-covering broke GBPUSD below Monday's 1.3367 Asian low in London and down to a 1.3327 NY low. The rebound stalled at a 1.3359 lower high, near the 50% retrace of the move from the Asia high. Early Asia is now drifting around the 1.3340 pivot with ATR(14) near 3 pips, and the thin-liquidity late wick to 1.3334 was rejected.

Support: 1.3334, 1.3327

Resistance: 1.3350, 1.3359, 1.3367

What it said to watch

  • Failure to hold the 1.3327 NY low extends the lower-low chain
  • Reclaim of the 1.3350 pivot needed to break the post-NY fade
  • M15 close above the 1.3359 lower high breaks the sequence and reopens the 1.3367 Asian low

23:02 UTC

Intraday downtrend, flat into rollover · RSI 38 · price 1.33418

Lower highs from the Asian high; mid-range between NY low and equal highs.

London broke the Asian low at 1.3367 as USD short-covering built into the FOMC, and the NY open set the ny low at 1.3327. The bounce stalled at equal highs near 1.3359, extending the lower highs, and price has faded back into the 50–61.8% fib of that bounce near 1.3340. A thin rollover wick marks the late low at 1.3334.

Support: 1.33335, 1.33273

Resistance: 1.33588, 1.33671

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3334 late low exposes the 1.3327 ny low and breaks the NY bounce fib structure
  • M15 close above 1.3359 equal highs breaks the lower highs trendline and puts the 1.3367 asian low back in play
  • Tue US Durable Goods 12:30 UTC and Consumer Confidence 14:00 UTC; UK Budget and FOMC on Wed could materially shift this read

22:47 UTC

Downtrend intraday, momentum fading into thin hours · RSI 37 · price 1.3342

Lower highs under 1.3359 after the Asian range broke lower; holding above 1.3327.

GBP/USD broke the 1.3364 Asian low into London as USD shorts were trimmed ahead of FOMC. It printed a 1.3327 day low early in NY, then the bounce stalled at the 1.3359 NY high. Since then the pair has drifted under a descending line of lower highs, and a thin post-rollover dip to the 1.3334 rollover low was bought back. Price sits near the 50% fib of the NY bounce.

Support: 1.3334, 1.3327

Resistance: 1.3349, 1.3359, 1.3364

What it said to watch

  • Close above the 1.3349 lower high breaks the descending line and the lower-high sequence
  • Failure to hold the 1.3334 rollover low exposes the 1.3327 day low and UOB's 1.3340 pivot zone
  • Reclaiming the 1.3359 NY high and the 1.3364 Asian low would negate the intraday downtrend read
  • Pre-FOMC USD positioning and Wednesday's UK Budget remain the drivers; the Asia session is likely thin

22:32 UTC

Downtrend, drifting in thin post-NY trade · RSI 34 · price 1.33407

Lower highs below Asian range; NY rebound capped at 50% retrace.

London broke below the Asian low at 1.3364 and NY extended to a day low of 1.3327 as USD shorts were trimmed before FOMC. The NY rebound stalled at 1.3359, near the 50% retrace of the descending line move, and price has faded back below the 1.3346 ny pivot. The rollover low at 1.3334 sits just under the 1.3340 support flagged in the GBP digest.

Support: 1.33335, 1.33273

Resistance: 1.33465, 1.33588, 1.3364

What it said to watch

  • Close below the 1.3327 day low extends the lower-low chain
  • Recovery above the 1.3359 ny high breaks the descending line and the lower-high sequence
  • Reclaiming the 1.3346 ny pivot is the first sign the post-NY drift is ending
  • US Durable Goods Tue 12:30 UTC; FOMC and the UK Budget on Wed could materially shift this read

22:17 UTC

Intraday downtrend, momentum flattening · RSI 33 · price 1.33412

Lower highs from 1.3359 swing high; holding above 1.3327 NY low.

GBPUSD faded from the 1.3387 Asian range high through London, and the NY low at 1.3327 marked the day's trough as USD shorts were trimmed ahead of Wednesday's Fed. The rebound stalled at the 1.3359 swing high and price has slipped back to the 61.8% fib near 1.3339, with the thin rollover low at 1.3334 holding above the NY low.

Support: 1.33393, 1.33335, 1.33273

Intraday downtrend, momentum fading · RSI 35 · price 1.33407

Lower highs below the Asian range since London open.

London open broke below the Asian range, and NY extended to a 1.3327 day low. The rebound was capped at the 1.3359 NY high. Late NY faded on a lower-high trendline back to the 61.8% retrace near 1.3340, the digest's support zone, as USD shorts were trimmed into the Fed. A thin rollover spike printed 1.3334; ATR is compressed near 3.6 pips.

Support: 1.33335, 1.33273

Resistance: 1.33588, 1.33873

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3327 day low extends the lower-low sequence
  • Recovery above the 1.3359 NY high breaks the lower-high trendline and voids the fade read
  • Rollover low at 1.3334 is a thin-liquidity print; an Asia session test shows whether 1.3340 support holds
  • Asian high at 1.3387 is the top of the range London broke out of
  • US Durable Goods Tue 12:30 UTC, then UK Budget and FOMC Wed, could materially shift this read

Lower highs off the 1.3359 rebound high; price parked at the 61.8% retrace.

London broke the 1.3362 Asian low, and NY extended to a 1.3327 session low as USD shorts were trimmed into Wednesday's Fed. The NY rebound met rejection at the 1.3359 rebound high. Thin post-NY trade has faded it to the fib 61.8 near 1.3340, with a lower high at 1.3349 capping.

Support: 1.33397, 1.33273

Resistance: 1.33491, 1.33588, 1.33623

Lower highs below 1.3359 rebound high after 1.3327 NY low.

London broke below the Asian range (1.3353–1.3387). NY extended the drop to a 1.3327 session low before a rejection at the 1.3359 rebound high, just over the London range top, and price has since drifted back to 1.3345 as USD firms on pre-FOMC short-covering. Price now sits between the 38.2% and 50% of the NY rebound fib, with RSI(14) near 42 and the late-session lower high at 1.3349 capping.

London broke down from the Asian range, whose high was 1.3387, to a London low at 1.3342 as the dollar firmed on pre-FOMC short-covering. Early NY briefly broke that low and reached a NY low of 1.3327, then reversed in a false break. The rebound stalled at the NY high of 1.3359, which capped twice, and late NY is drifting back toward the 38.2% fib near 1.3347 with RSI(14) neutral near 49.

The rebound stalled twice at the 1.3359 intraday cap, near the 50% fib. Late NY, price sits on EMA20 at the 38.2% fib near 1.3350 and is slipping under the NY trendline, with the london low at 1.3342 below.

GBPUSD sold off from the 1.3387 Asian high through London and into the NY open, briefly breaking below 1.3330 support to a 1.3327 session low as the USD firmed on pre-FOMC short-covering. The rebound since then has built higher lows but is stalling at the 1.3359 rebound high, near the 50% retrace of the selloff fib. Late in NY hours, price is sitting on the rebound line.

Intraday recovery off day low, higher lows · RSI 63 · price 1.3357

HH/HL chain from 1.3327, testing NY session high.

Pre-FOMC USD short-covering drove a NY-session break of the 1.3342 london low to a 1.3327 day low. The break was rejected, and late NY has since built higher lows to the 1.3359 session high, which sits on the 50% retrace of the asian high–day low drop.

Resistance: 1.3359, 1.3375, 1.3387

What it said to watch

  • Close above the 1.3359 session high reopens the 1.3375 breakdown area, with the 1.3387 asian high beyond

Higher lows since 1.3327 sweep, capped at 50% retrace.

GBPUSD broke below the Asian low at 1.3367 at London open, then swept under 1.3340/1.3330 at the NY open to a 1.3327 day low as pre-FOMC USD short-covering extended. A higher-low trendline has since lifted price after London close to the 50% fib of the day drop and the 1.3359 NY high, where it is stalling on the EMA50.

Resistance: 1.3359, 1.3367

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3359 NY high and 50% fib opens a retest of the 1.3367 Asian low

Intraday downtrend, NY recovery in progress · RSI 59 · price 1.33565

London broke the Asian range low; NY swept 1.3327 and is building higher lows.

London opened with a break of the Asian range on pre-FOMC USD short-covering, holding a 1.3342–1.3358 range before NY swept below the london low to a 1.3327 ny low and reclaimed it. A higher-low chain since then has price back at the 1.3358 range top after London close, matching the 61.8% retracement of the drop from the london open area; RSI(14) is near 59.

Lower highs from 1.3387 Asia high; NY low 1.3327 reclaimed.

London sold off from the 1.3373 open area through the Asian range as pre-FOMC USD short-covering built, and NY briefly broke the london low at 1.3342 to print the ny low at 1.3327 before reclaiming it, a false break. The late-NY rebound stalled at the ny high of 1.3353, near the 38.2% fib, and the lower highs line from the london high at 1.3358 still caps.

Support: 1.3342, 1.3327

Higher highs and higher lows off the NY low, pressing the London range top.

London open broke below the Asian range from 1.3375 and set a 1.3342–1.3357 range. The NY break of the range floor stalled at a 1.3327 session low as USD short-covering ran into Wednesday's FOMC. Since then a rising line of higher lows has lifted price back to the 1.3350s, testing the range top, the 50% of the London drop fib and the EMA50 near 1.3353.

Support: 1.3342, 1.3327

Resistance: 1.3357, 1.3375

What it said to watch

  • Loss of the rising line and a close back under the 1.3342 range floor would turn the NY rebound into a lower high

Lower highs from the Asian high, then higher lows off the NY low.

London open broke below the Asian range. NY then dipped through the London low to a 1.3327 ny low on pre-FOMC USD short-covering, but the break failed and price reclaimed 1.3342. Higher lows near 1.3341 have lifted price to the 38.2% fib at 1.3350, just under the 1.3352 rebound high, with RSI(14) neutral at 55.

Intraday downtrend, corrective bounce · RSI 51 · price 1.33506

Lower highs from Asia; NY low reclaimed, higher lows forming.

London broke the Asian range lower and NY extended to a 1.3327 ny low as USD shorts were trimmed into Wednesday's Fed. That leaves a lower-high sequence running down from the 1.3387 asian high. Price has since reclaimed the 1.3341 london low and holds above the ema20 at the 38.2% fib near 1.3350. The ny rebound line is printing higher lows into London close, with the rebound high at 1.3352 and the lower high at 1.3358 capping.

Intraday downtrend, bounce stalling · RSI 44 · price 1.33435

Lower highs since the Asian high; NY broke the London low and is retesting it from below.

Cable has bled from the 1.3387 Asian high through London. NY extended the leg with a break of the 1.3342 London low to 1.3327 as USD shorts were trimmed ahead of Wednesday's Fed. The rebound stalled at a 1.3350 lower high, where the descending trendline and the 38.2% fib of the Asia high-NY low drop converge, and price is back testing the London low with RSI(14) near 44.

Lower highs since Asia; NY dip below London low reclaimed.

Cable dropped out of the Asian range at London open as USD shorts were trimmed into Wednesday's Fed. A NY sell-off then marked a 1.3327 ny low before price snapped back to the 1.3342 london low area. The 1.3350 rebound high sits on the lower highs line from 1.3376, with RSI(14) at 44 and price just under EMA20.

London broke below the Asian range and NY extended the slide to the 1.3327 ny low as USD shorts were trimmed into Wednesday's Fed. The mid-NY bounce retraced about 72% of the 1.3358 ny high leg but showed rejection at the 1.3349 bounce high, under the lower-highs trendline, and price is now back on the 1.3342 london low.

London broke below the Asian range and Friday's 1.3360 area, then held a 1.3342–1.3358 box until the NY open extended the slide to the 1.3327 ny low as USD shorts were trimmed into Wednesday's Fed. The rebound has carried back to the london low at 1.3342, which is now being retested. Price is stalling between the 50% and 61.8% of the ny drop fib, with the ema20 at 1.3346 overhead.

Lower highs from the Asian high; London range broken lower at NY open, now retesting the broken base.

Cable has bled from the 1.3387 Asian high through London, and the NY open broke the 1.3342–1.3358 London range down to a 1.3327 session low as USD shorts were trimmed into Wednesday's Fed. The bounce is now pressing the broken london base near 1.3345 from below, just above the 23.6% fib of the Asian high to session low leg, with EMA20 overhead and RSI(14) neutral near 45.

Resistance: 1.3345, 1.3358, 1.3387

What it said to watch

  • Rejection at the 1.3345 london base and a break of the 1.3336 prior shelf would expose the 1.3327 session low again
  • A close below the 1.3327 session low extends the lower-low chain under the 1.3330 area
  • An M15 close above the 1.3358 london high, near the 50% fib, would break the lower-high sequence and put the 1.3387 asian high back in view

Asia topped at 1.3387 (asian high). London broke the Asian range and stepped down into a 1.3342–1.3358 range. NY broke the range floor at 13:00 UTC to a 1.3327 NY low as USD shorts were trimmed into Wednesday's Fed. The 14:00 UTC bar rejected that low and reclaimed the 1.3330 area, and price is now pressing the old range floor near 1.3343 from below, with RSI(14) ~41 and both EMAs overhead.

Resistance: 1.3343, 1.3358, 1.3387

Lower highs since London open; NY broke the London range low.

London open broke the Asian range and Friday's 1.3361 low. Price then held a 1.3342–1.3358 range into NY. In the first hour of NY the London low gave way, taking out the 1.3340/1.3330 zone flagged in the digest and printing a 1.3327 session low on a lower-highs sequence, with RSI(14) near 34 and not yet oversold.

  • Failure to hold the 1.3327 session low exposes the 1.3300 psych level

London broke the Asian low near 1.3367, then held a 1.3342–1.3358 box. Early NY broke the box floor to a 1.3336 session low, which sits in the 1.3330/40 support zone, as USD shorts get trimmed ahead of Wednesday's Fed and UK Budget. RSI(14) near 40 is not stretched, and supply has capped each bounce, keeping lower highs intact from the Asian high.

Into the NY session the 13:00 UTC bar showed a rejection from the range top and returned price to the range low. Pre-Fed USD short-trimming is behind the slide, and rebounds have stalled below the 38.2% retracement of the Asian high-to-London low leg.

London broke the Asian low at 1.3367 and Friday's low at 1.3361 as USD dip-buyers stepped in in early Europe. That sequence of lower highs printed a session low at 1.3342. Price has since compressed into a 1.3342–1.3353 base below EMA20, with RSI(14) near 34 and the base top capping just under the 38.2% retracement of the drop.

  • Acceptance back inside the Asian range, above the 1.3367 Asian low, would mark the morning break as a false break
  • FOMC (Wed) and the UK Autumn Forecast Statement keep the larger range in focus; no scheduled data in the next 8h

Downtrend, momentum stalling · RSI 41 · price 1.33502

London broke below the Asian range and Friday low, then compressed in a tight 1.3342–1.3355 band.

London open broke below the Asian range and the Friday low at 1.3361, running to a 1.3342 session low as USD steadied ahead of Wednesday's FOMC. Since then price has compressed between the session low and a 1.3355 range top, which lines up with the 38.2% fib of the London leg. Price sits below EMA20 and RSI(14) is at 41, so downside momentum has faded without a recovery.

Support: 1.3342, 1.3330

Resistance: 1.3355, 1.3361, 1.3376

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3355 range top and back over the friday low at 1.3361 negates the London breakdown
  • Acceptance below the 1.3342 session low resumes the lower-low sequence toward the 1.3330 round number
  • Pre-ldn high at 1.3376 caps any recovery above the 61.8% fib of the London leg
  • No scheduled UK/US data in the next 8h. US durable goods Tuesday and FOMC Wednesday are the next catalysts

Intraday downtrend, stalling at lows · RSI 36 · price 1.33504

Asian range broken lower at London open; lower highs over flat lows near 1.3342.

London open broke the Asian low near 1.3367 and Friday's low at 1.3361 as the USD steadied ahead of Wednesday's FOMC. The London leg ran to a 1.3342 session low, which held on three tests. Price is now pressing the 1.3352 lower high, still under EMA20 near 1.3356 and below the 38.2% retracement of the move.

Support: 1.3342

Resistance: 1.3352, 1.3361, 1.3367

What it said to watch

  • An M15 close above the 1.3352 lower high breaks the lower-high chain and puts the 1.3361 friday low in play as a retest.
  • Rejection in the 1.3361–1.3367 band (friday low / asian low) keeps the London range break intact.
  • Failure to hold the 1.3342 session low extends the London leg toward the 1.3330 support flagged in the digest.
  • Nothing is scheduled in the next 8h. The Fed decision on Wed 28 Oct at 18:00 UTC is the next major risk to this read.

Downtrend, compressing at session low · RSI 34 · price 1.33504

Lower highs from the Asian high; break below Friday's low, now boxed 1.3342–1.3352.

Price slid from the Asian high at 1.3387 into London, breaking below Friday's low at 1.3361 as the USD steadied ahead of Wednesday's FOMC. Since 08:45 UTC it has been boxed between the 1.3342 session low, near the 1.3340 support cited in the macro read, and a 1.3352 lower high. RSI(14) sits near 34 with both EMAs overhead.

Support: 1.33418, 1.3330

Resistance: 1.33525, 1.33608, 1.33873

What it said to watch

  • A close above the 1.3352 lower high breaks the box and brings the 38.2% of the London drop (1.3355) and the Friday low at 1.3361, now resistance, into play
  • Failure to hold the 1.3342 session low exposes the 1.3330 zone; a break there would extend the lower-low sequence
  • A recovery back to the 1.3387 Asian high would put price back inside Friday's range and neutralise the break
  • No scheduled data before the NY session; Tue 12:30 UTC US durable goods is the next USD catalyst ahead of FOMC

Downtrend, lows compressing · RSI 25 · price 1.33459

Lower highs from 1.3376; London broke Asian range low and Friday low.

Pre-London selling off the 1.3387 Asian high broke the Asian range low and Friday low at 1.3361. London extended the slide to a 1.3342 session low, under the 1.3360 area the digest flags as dip-buying, as USD steadied ahead of FOMC. RSI(14) is near 25 and lows are compressing at 1.3342–1.3344, with the 1.3352 bounce high capping the descending highs line.

Support: 1.33418, 1.3333

Resistance: 1.33525, 1.33608, 1.33761

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above 1.3361 Friday low would mark the break below the Asian range as a false break
  • Failure to hold the 1.3342 session low exposes the 1.3330–1.3340 support zone
  • Close above the descending highs line and the 1.3352 bounce high eases the intraday downtrend; the 1.3376 lower high is the next structural pivot
  • US durable goods Tue 12:30 UTC and FOMC Wed 18:00 UTC could materially shift this read

London open broke the Asian low at 1.3353 and Friday's low at 1.3361, then built a lower-high chain under a descending trendline to a session low of 1.3342. Lows are clustering at 1.3342–1.3344 with RSI(14) near 24, just above the 1.3340 range floor flagged in the GBP digest as USD holds firm into Wednesday's FOMC.

Support: 1.33424, 1.3340

Resistance: 1.33534, 1.33608

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the descending trendline (~1.3349) breaks the lower-high sequence
  • Recovery back above the 1.3353 asian low would turn the London break into a false break

London open broke the Asian low at 1.3353 and Friday's low near 1.3361, a 44-pip slide to a 1.3343 session low as the dollar firmed ahead of the FOMC. Two tests of the session low have held mid-London, with the bounce capped below the Asian low and RSI(14) near 24.

Support: 1.33434, 1.3340

Resistance: 1.33534, 1.33608, 1.33705

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3343 session low exposes the 1.3340 round number, the floor of the broader 1.3340–1.3420 range
  • Recovery back above the 1.3353 asian low would turn the London break into a false break
  • Reclaim of the 1.3361 friday low (38.2% fib of the Asia-high-to-session-low drop) eases the lower-high sequence; the 61.8% fib sits at 1.3371

Lower highs/lower lows through London; Asian range broken below.

London broke the 1.3367 Asian low and Friday's low at 1.3361 at the open, stepping down in lower highs to a 1.3343 session low as USD firmed modestly ahead of FOMC. Price is now basing just above the 1.3340 range floor, with RSI(14) near 32 and the 1.3355 lower high capping the bounce.

Support: 1.33434, 1.3340

Resistance: 1.33552, 1.33608, 1.33671

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3355 lower high breaks the London lower-high chain; Friday low at 1.3361 (38.2% fib) is next
  • Failure to hold the 1.3343 session low exposes the 1.3340 range floor

Asian range low and Friday low broken at London open; lower highs since 1.3376.

London open took out the Asian range low and Friday's low near 1.3360. Price slid to a session low at 1.3343, just above the 1.3340/1.3330 range floor, as USD stayed firm into FOMC week. The first bounce is stalling at the 1.3353 bounce high with RSI(14) near 29, below both EMAs, and every high since the 1.3376 pre-London high has been lower.

Support: 1.3343, 1.3330

Resistance: 1.3353, 1.3360, 1.3376

What it said to watch

  • A close back above 1.3360 (Friday low, 38.2% fib) would turn the London break into a false break
  • Failure to hold the 1.3343 session low exposes the 1.3330 range floor; a break there takes price out of the week's range
  • Lower highs below the 1.3353 bounce high keep the downtrend sequence intact into NY open
  • A recovery through the 1.3376 pre-London high would negate the breakdown

London open then broke the Asian low at 1.3353 and Friday's low at 1.3361, printing a session low at 1.3343 just above the 1.3340 range floor as USD found early-Europe dip buyers. RSI(14) near 28 is stretched but not extreme. Price is holding below both EMAs.

Resistance: 1.33534, 1.33608, 1.33705

  • Failure to hold the 1.3340 range floor extends the lower-low sequence toward 1.3330
  • M15 close back above the Asian low at 1.3353 and the Friday low at 1.3361 marks the London break as a false break
  • Recovery through the fib 61.8 at 1.3370 and the lower-high trendline negates the intraday downtrend read

Lower highs from the Asian high, Friday low broken, price at session low.

Lower highs from the 1.3387 Asian high gave way to a London-open slide from 1.3373. That move broke the Friday low at 1.3361 and printed a session low at 1.3353, with RSI(14) near 24 as the dollar steadies ahead of FOMC. The last two bars are stalling just above the 1.3350 round number.

  • Failure to hold the 1.3353 session low and the 1.3350 round number exposes the 1.3340 range floor
  • A retrace into the 50–61.8% fib zone (1.3370–1.3374) near the London open level tests whether the lower-highs trendline still caps
  • No scheduled GBP or USD data in the next 8h; US Durable Goods Tue 12:30 UTC is the next calendar catalyst

  • M15 close above the lower-highs trendline near 1.3372, the 61.8% fib area, breaks the intraday lower-high sequence

London open broke through the Friday low at 1.3361 and set a session low at 1.3355, extending a lower-high chain from the 1.3387 Asia high as the dollar firmed modestly ahead of Wednesday's FOMC.

Lower highs from the 1.3387 Asian high; Friday low broken.

The early London session extended the Asian lower-high sequence from 1.3387. Price dropped about 20 pips through the friday low at 1.3361 to 1.3356, with RSI(14) near 24. That leaves the pair just above the asian low at 1.3353 (Sunday-open wick), in line with the digest's modest dollar recovery ahead of Wednesday's FOMC.

Lower highs since then have pulled price about 73% back to 1.3370 as the dollar firmed off its early dip. Price sits just above 1.3367 twin lows ahead of London open, with RSI(14) soft near 38 and ATR(14) around 4 pips.

Asian session ran from the 1.3353 asian low to a 1.3387 asian high, a rejection just under the 1.3388 friday high. Since then a lower-high chain has pulled price back to the 1.3367 session low, the 61.8% retracement of the Asian rally. Price is steadying near 1.3374 into London open, below both EMAs, as softer US yields ease the USD ahead of Wednesday's FOMC.

It has since built a chain of lower highs under a falling trendline as the USD rebounded. Pre-London price is holding the 1.3367 swing low at the 61.8% retrace, with the 1.3376 lower high capping the latest bounce.

Asia ran from the 1.3364 area to a 1.3387 Asia high on softer USD and lower yields, but stalled at the same zone that capped Friday's NY highs, printing a small double top. Price has since faded on lower highs back to the 61.8% fib near 1.3373, with the 1.3371 pullback low the nearest floor ahead of London open.

Asia rally from a sweep low faded into a double top; lower-high sequence since 1.3387.

Monday Asia swept below the Friday low at 1.3361 to an Asia low of 1.3353. Dip buyers then lifted price to an Asia high of 1.3387, as the USD softened on fading Iran-strike risk. A double top at 1.3387 has since given way to lower highs and a break of the 1.3380 shelf, leaving price near the 50% of the Asia rally fib ahead of London open.

Asia bounced from the thin Sunday-open asian low at 1.3353 to the 1.3387 asian high on softer US yields. Since then it has printed lower highs and faded toward the 1.3373 breakout pt, near the 38.2% of that rally, ahead of London open. RSI(14) is near 39, price has slipped below EMA20 and sits on EMA50, and ATR is a quiet 3.4 pips.

Support: 1.3373, 1.3364, 1.3353

Resistance: 1.3387, 1.3394, 1.3400

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3373 breakout pt exposes the 1.3364 asia pivot near the 61.8% retrace of the Asian rally
  • Failure to hold 1.3353 asian low erases the Asia rebound
  • Reclaim of the 1.3387 asian high breaks the lower-high sequence and brings the 1.3394 friday high and 1.3400 round number into view
  • London open liquidity is likely to expand the current 3-pip ATR and test either side of the Asian range

Lower highs below 1.3387 Asian high, tight consolidation 1.3377–1.3387.

Asia dipped below Friday's 1.3361 low to a 1.3353 Asian low on the open, then rebounded to a 1.3387 Asian high as softer US yields weighed on USD. Since then price has drifted under a lower-highs line into a 1.3377–1.3387 consolidation, sitting on EMA20 and the 23.6% fib with RSI(14) near 46 and ATR(14) about 3 pips.

Intraday rebound, stalling below Asian high · RSI 45 · price 1.33798

Rally off weekly-open dip, now a tight range with lower highs under 1.3387.

Dip-buying at 1.3353 after the weekly open lifted GBPUSD to an Asian high of 1.3387 as softer US yields capped the dollar. Since then the Asia session has compressed into a 1.3377–1.3387 band with lower highs, holding the rising support line and the 23.6% level of the Asia rally fib. RSI(14) is neutral near 45 and ATR is about 3 pips heading into London open.

Asian rebound stalling, momentum fading · RSI 40 · price 1.33776

Asian range 1.3353–1.3387; price drifting off the range top.

Asia session rebounded from the 1.3353 Asian low and a higher swing low at 1.3364, helped by softer US yields, but stalled at the 1.3387 session high, matching Friday's NY swing high. Price is now drifting to 1.3378 late in the Asian range, testing the 38.2% fib at 1.3374, with RSI(14) near 40.

Recovering intraday, momentum flat · RSI 47 · price 1.33804

Tight 1.3380–1.3387 Asian range, lower highs pressing the base.

Dip-buyers took the Sunday-open low at 1.3353 back to a 1.3387 Asia high as softer US yields kept the dollar capped. Price has since compressed into a 1.3380–1.3387 Asian range with lower highs and now sits on the asia low just under the EMA20. RSI(14) near 47 and a roughly 3-pip ATR show little momentum ahead of London open.

Intraday recovery, stalling · RSI 52 · price 1.33803

Tight range 1.3380–1.3387 after Asia rally, lower highs pressing the floor.

Thin early-Asia trade swept below the friday low to 1.3353 (asia low). Dip-buying on softer US yields then lifted GBPUSD to the 1.3387 asia high. Since then price has compressed into a 7-pip box with lower highs and is now sitting on the 1.3380 range floor ahead of London open, with ATR down near 4 pips.

Intraday up-leg, now stalling · RSI 55 · price 1.33813

Tight Asian range 1.3380–1.3387 below Friday high.

Asia session lifted GBPUSD off the 1.3353 Sunday low to 1.3387 as softer US yields capped the USD. Price has since compressed into a 7-pip range above the 1.3380 range low, with supply again capping at the 1.3388 Friday high, which held twice during Friday's NY session. RSI(14) is neutral near 55, and ATR(14) has shrunk to about 3.6 pips ahead of London open.

Higher lows off the 1.3353 open low, tight 1.3380–1.3387 range since 01:15 UTC.

The Sunday open dipped to the 1.3353 asia low, taking out Friday's 1.3361 low before dip-buying on softer US yields lifted GBPUSD to a 1.3387 asia high. Price has compressed between the 1.3380 range floor and that high for about two hours, with RSI(14) near 59 and ATR(14) around 4 pips ahead of London open.

Support: 1.3380, 1.33704, 1.33534

Resistance: 1.33873, 1.3400, 1.3419

What it said to watch

  • An M15 close above the 1.3387 asia high, which aligns with Friday's 1.3388 high, opens the 1.3400 round number and then the 1.3419 monthly high
  • Loss of the 1.3380 range floor exposes the fib 50% retracement near 1.3370, the origin of the Asia breakout
  • A break back below the 1.3353 asia low would negate the post-open sweep and the rebound
  • Wed FOMC at 18:00 UTC is the week's dominant catalyst, and a pre-FOMC rebound in US yields would undercut the rebound read

Intraday up, stalling at 1.3387 · RSI 60 · price 1.33825

Higher low after Sunday-open sweep; tight range under session high.

The Sunday open swept Friday's 1.3361 low to 1.3353, then Asia built a higher low at 1.3364 and pushed to a 1.3387 session high. That high matches Friday's London and NY highs, and the Asia leg has stalled there. Price is compressing on a 1.3380 asia shelf just above EMA20, RSI(14) is near 60, and softer US yields frame the Asia bid ahead of Wednesday's FOMC.

Support: 1.3380, 1.3364, 1.3353

Resistance: 1.3387, 1.3397, 1.3400

  • Loss of the 1.3380 asia shelf and rising support reopens the 1.3364 higher low; the 1.3353 sunday low sits below
  • 38.2% of the Asia leg fib at ~1.3374 is the first pullback reference if the shelf gives way
  • London open is the first test of the 1.3353–1.3387 Asian range; FOMC Wed 18:00 UTC is the week's dominant risk

Intraday rebound, stalling below Friday cap · RSI 61 · price 1.33814

Higher lows from the 1.3353 Asia low, flat consolidation under 1.3388.

Monday's Asia session dipped to an Asia low of 1.3353 after the open, then recovered Friday's late losses as softer US yields capped USD. The rebound has stalled into an Asia shelf at 1.3380-1.3387, directly under the 1.3388 Friday cap that rejected price three times on Friday; the 1.3364 higher low anchors the intraday rise.

Support: 1.3380, 1.3364, 1.3353

  • Loss of the 1.3380 Asia shelf puts the 1.3364 higher low and the 50% retracement near 1.3370 in play

HH/HL chain off the Asian low, testing Friday's prior high.

Monday's Asia session swept Friday's 1.3361 low to an asian low at 1.3353, then built a steady HH/HL chain along a rising trendline as softer US yields kept USD on the back foot. Price now sits just under Friday's NY prior high at 1.3388, with RSI(14) near 71 and the 1.3380 swing low the nearest intraday pivot.

Support: 1.3380, 1.3364, 1.3353

  • M15 close above the 1.3388 prior high opens the friday high at 1.3397 and the 1.3400 psych level
  • Break below the 1.3380 swing low and the rising trendline breaks the HH/HL chain, putting the 1.3364 higher low back in focus
  • London open in ~4h typically tests the Asian range; loss of the 1.3353 asian low would negate the Asia rebound

Early Asia session: the thin weekly open dipped below Friday's 1.3361 low to the 1.3353 open low, then buyers stepped in. A higher-low chain through the 1.3364 asia low carried the asia rally to 1.3387, in line with the softer-US-yields read. Price is now pinned under the 1.3388 friday cap, the level that held three times on Friday, with RSI(14) near 69 and ATR around 4 pips.

Asia higher-low chain from the open low, testing Friday highs.

The Asia session rebounded from the 1.3353 open low, a sweep below Friday's 1.3361 low, and has built higher lows at the 1.3364 asian HL and the 1.3380 pullback low. Dip-buying lines up with the soft-yield USD tone. Price is now pressing the 1.3387–88 friday highs, a level capped three times, with RSI(14) near 67 and not stretched.

Higher-low chain from 1.3353 into a test of Friday's 1.3388 prior highs.

The week opened with a false break below Friday's 1.3361 low to a 1.3353 Asia low. The Asia session then built higher lows at 1.3364 and the 1.3380 swing low along a rising trendline, into the 1.3388 prior highs that capped Friday's NY session twice. Softer US yields keeping USD on the back foot fit the dip-buying, and RSI(14) near 62 is not stretched.

Asia session rebounded from the 1.3364 asia low, with dip-buying as softer US yields cap the USD. It is building higher lows up to Friday's NY high at 1.3388, where the 01:15 UTC bar stalled. RSI(14) near 65 is firm but not stretched, and the 1.3380 pullback low sits just above the 38.2% of the Asia rally.

Intraday uptrend, pressing Friday highs · RSI 67 · price 1.33834

HH/HL chain off the weekly open low, testing the Friday cap.

The thin weekly open briefly dipped under Friday's low to 1.3353 (open low). Early Asia session has since reclaimed it, putting a higher low in at 1.3364 (swing low) and lifting price into the 1.3387–1.3388 Friday highs. That zone capped three rallies during Friday's London and NY sessions, when US PMI strength and Iran tensions lifted USD. The latest push printed 1.3387 and was again held below it, with the higher low at 1.3381 and the Asia HL line underneath.

Support: 1.3381, 1.3364, 1.3353

Resistance: 1.3388, 1.3400

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3388 Friday highs breaks the cap and opens the 1.3400 round number
  • Failure to hold the 1.3381 higher low and the Asia HL line puts the 38.2–50% zone of the open low rally (1.3374–1.3370) in play

The thin Monday open swept below the 1.3361 Friday low to a 1.3353 sweep low and reclaimed it. Asia has since built a higher-low chain to 1.3386. Price now sits under the 1.3388 Friday PM highs, which capped the London and NY rallies during Friday's chop between the UK PMI beat and the strong US PMI; RSI(14) is near 70.

  • A break of the 1.3374 higher low and the higher-low trendline ends the Asia HH/HL chain, with the 1.3361 friday low next.
  • Losing the 1.3353 sweep low would turn the open-gap false break into a fresh lower low.
  • Asia liquidity is thin; London open around 07:00 UTC is likely to set the real session range.

Price has since printed higher lows at 1.3364 and is pressing the 1.3380 session high, back inside Friday's NY range, as weekend Iran headlines trimmed immediate escalation risk.

False break below Friday low, then higher low at 1.3364 in early Asia.

The thin Sunday open dipped through the 1.3361 Friday low to an open spike at 1.3353, and that dip was reclaimed within the hour. Early Asia has since printed a higher low at 1.3364 and an Asian high at 1.3380. Price sits mid-range below the 1.3387–1.3388 Friday highs, which capped three rallies as USD held firm on strong PMIs and Iran headlines.

False break of Friday low, higher low at 1.3364.

The thin Sunday open dipped to the 1.3353 sunday low, a false break of the 1.3361 friday low, and early Asia has since lifted price to 1.3378. That is a higher low at the 1.3364 swing low and a retrace of more than 61.8% of the fib drop from Friday's high to Sunday's low. Price sits back inside Friday's NY range, below the 1.3388 friday cap that held three times after strong US PMIs lifted the USD; RSI(14) is near 63.

The thin Sunday open dipped to a sunday low of 1.3353 below the friday low and was quickly reclaimed. Price now sits near the 50% fib of the 1.3388–1.3353 drop in early Asia, with RSI(14) neutral near 53.

What it said to watch

  • Close above the 1.3374 sunday high, which sits near the 61.8% fib, exposes the 1.3388 friday high
  • Loss of the 1.3364 asia pivot puts the 1.3361 friday low back in play
  • Close below the 1.3353 sunday low confirms a lower low and voids the false-break read
  • London open is the next liquidity test of the Asian range; no scheduled GBP/USD data in the next 8h
