GBPUSD Weak after daily shooting star

GBPUSD, 240 min

GBPUSD created a daily shooting star candle yesterday and fell outside the rising channel in today’s trading.  The pair is about to create a four hour shooting star candle which suggests that the sellers are rejecting the rally attempts to the area above 1.4400. In the daily chart the Stochastics is getting overbought while the weekly resistance level at 1.4500 is relatively close.

I am therefore looking for sell signals inside the above sell area between 1.4395 and 1.4445. Target 1 for successful short entries is at 1.4174-1.4214 and Target 2 at 1.4033-1.4085. Please, remember to apply risk appropriate management measures and come to our webinars to learn more should feel the need for further education.
