GBP/USD

The Pound has been moving extremely bullish here against the Pound, forming a mini-channel inside the long-term ascending channel. We can see the retailer's support at 1.395, where I expect most retail traders to enter this market long. However, right below we can see the huge liquidity void with a bullish OB right below it too. I expect price to continue heading down, stopping out the retailer's trades and only reversing somewhere between the LV and OB. I would recommend looking closer into OB's in the shorter time frames to catch a sniper entry.

GBP/CAD

Last week we saw price successfully close at the top of this long-term ascending channel. We could potentially see price make its next long-term move towards the channel's bottom to create the next swing low LH in this market. I am expecting this to happen as we have also got a LV formed from the Daily TF at 1.745, showing where most orders are, and also, we have got the rather large bullish OB where traders are waiting to enter the market. I think we could see a clear drop towards the LV and consolidate for a while until price meets the channel's bottom before continuing the next move in the market.

EUR/JPY

We have got this ascending triangle pattern which we saw break to the upside in the past couple of weeks. Originally the highlighted box was a bearish OB; however, once we saw price break and continue the chart pattern, this block becomes a Breaker Block and essentially acts as the opposite of what it originally was. We have already seen price reverse from this block after the initial breakout retracement; however, we could see price once again return and once again break to the upside. I will be looking out for price action confirmations at this level to enter long.

XAU/USD

I have mixed bias on this pair; however, it is a tradition for me to look at Gold. Price is currently holding at this bullish OB at 1775-1790. Price broke out of this OB but still closed inside the OB before the daily candle close. For this reason, I'm unsure whether this becomes a breaker block or continues to be a bullish OB. I think long-term, we could see this as a good level to enter longs, as price should be attracted towards the LV at 1890 and overall complete the long-term bullish flag pattern.
