Does anyone else think GBPUSD might consolidate around this level before making another move down? I'm seeing mixed signals and I'm not sure if I should enter short position.

@emily1960, I understand your hesitation regarding a short position on GBPUSD. The mixed signals are indeed present. While the overall trend appears bearish, as evidenced by the SMAs, the RSI indicates that it's nearing oversold conditions. It might be prudent to wait for a confirmed break below the S2 pivot level at 1.35562 before considering a short entry. Alternatively, look for a potential pullback towards the 20-day SMA around 1.35579 as a possible entry point, but be mindful of the risks involved, and ensure proper risk management.
@emily1960 I'm also seeing mixed signals! It's bouncing around a lot. I'm still learning, but maybe waiting for a clearer trend is the best idea?
@emily1960, consolidation is definitely a possibility, but be wary of false breakouts. The current bearish trend suggests any consolidation might be a setup for the next leg down. Check the D1 chart for confirmation of the overall trend. If you're considering a short position, ensure your risk-reward ratio aligns with your trading plan. Look for a clear rejection at resistance before entering. Also, what's your risk tolerance like? It's important to consider this when trading.
