Target and stop are recalculated on every candle and can move.
The plan applies until the end. Warning signs along the way are notes, not an exit signal – exiting at warning signs has not paid off on average in our measurements.

What we have measured
This is how 763 closed forex 2h signals since 6 Sep 2026 ended:
20 % at target avg +0.41 % 29 % holding time ended, in profit avg +0.20 % 36 % holding time ended, at a loss avg −0.22 % 15 % at stop avg −0.45 %

Missing the target is not the same as a loss: when the holding time ends, the trade closes at the market price – in profit or at a loss.

Analysis

🎯 Key Takeaways
  • Strong bearish signal on 2H with 84% probability, driven by multiple momentum indicators.
  • Bearish trend is consistent from 15m to 4H, but higher timeframes (8H+) are still bullish.
  • Watch the 1.33550 support: a break below confirms bearish continuation; a move above 1.34191 resistance would invalidate.
  • The AROON cross-ups indicate a short-term bounce, but the overall momentum is down.
The 2H GBP/USD signal is strongly bearish (probability 84%, strength strong), with a broad cluster of momentum and trend indicators aligning to the downside. AROON Cross Up and AROONOSC Zero Cross Up suggest a short-term upward correction within the larger bearish move, but the simultaneous BOP Zero Cross Down, CMO Zero Cross Down, RSI Midline Cross Down, and STOCHF KD Cross Down confirm that the dominant momentum is shifting lower. The DEMA Retreat Down and HT TRENDLINE Retreat Down further validate that the prevailing trend is bearish, with the retreat indicating a pullback from an overextended position.

Across timeframes, the bearish bias is consistent from 15m up to 4H, with the 2H and 4H showing trend formation (2/5). However, higher timeframes (8H, 12H, 1D) are still bullish, creating a conflicting picture. This suggests the current bearish signal may be a counter-trend move within a larger bullish structure, or the beginning of a reversal. Key levels to watch are the nearest resistance at 1.34191 and support at 1.33550. A break below support would confirm the bearish momentum, while a reclaim of resistance would invalidate the signal.
Catalysts
  • ▼ Multiple momentum indicators (BOP, CMO, RSI, STOCHF) all crossing down simultaneously.
  • ▼ Trend alignment across lower timeframes (15m-4H) all bearish.
  • ▼ DEMA and HT TRENDLINE retreats confirm the prevailing downtrend.
  • ▼ Strong signal strength and high probability.
Risk Factors
  • ▲ Higher timeframes (8H, 12H, 1D) are still bullish, which could mean this is a counter-trend move.
  • ▲ The AROON Cross Up suggests a short-term bounce that could stall the decline.
  • ▲ If price reclaims the 1.34191 resistance, the bearish signal would be invalidated.
  • ▲ Momentum could fade if the 2H trend fails to break below 1.33550 support.
