GBP/USD Bullish Compression Near Breakout Zone

55
Key Observations
Trend Bias: Short-term bullish.
Buyers defended higher lows repeatedly, shown by the rising trendline underneath price.
Price is compressing into resistance, which often precedes a volatility expansion.
Structure Analysis
Resistance zone: 1.3440 – 1.3450
Immediate support: 1.3410 – 1.3400
Rising trendline support remains intact.
The grey projected box suggests expectation of an upside continuation move.
Bullish Scenario

If GBP/USD breaks and closes above:

y=1.3450

then momentum could extend toward:

1.3480
1.3500
Potentially 1.3520+

Volume and candle strength on breakout will matter.

Bearish Scenario

Failure to hold the ascending trendline may trigger:

Pullback to 1.3400
Then deeper retrace toward 1.3380 – 1.3360

A fake breakout is also possible because price is sitting directly beneath supply.

Market Psychology

This pattern reflects:

Sellers defending resistance
Buyers becoming increasingly aggressive at higher prices

Usually, whichever side wins this compression gets a sharp move.

Trading Idea
Aggressive bulls: wait for breakout candle above resistance.
Conservative traders: wait for retest confirmation after breakout.
Bears only gain control if structure breaks below the rising support line.
