GBP/USD – 8H – BUY
BUY 3× UPDATED CLOSEDWhat we have measured
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.

The engine evaluates many detectors on every candle – chart patterns, indicators, trend lines, support and resistance – and weights each one by how it has performed so far.How we work
- Every signal is tracked to the end and counted, losses included – so far 33,308 closed live signals.
- Every figure on this page was fixed in advance and checked on data that was not used to develop it.
- What does not hold up, we do not recommend: we tested exiting at warning signs on about 98,000 trades – on average it gains nothing, so there is no such recommendation.
- More than 150 logged experiments, each with its result – including the ones that failed.
- All figures are gross: without your broker’s fees, spreads and slippage.

Trend Context
Analysis
- Multiple oversold indicators on the 8H are flashing a bullish reversal signal.
- The signal is strong (84% probability) but runs against the higher-timeframe downtrend.
- Watch the 1.34191 resistance; a break could confirm the bounce, while a drop below 1.31369 would invalidate it.
- The overall trend is mixed, so treat this as a counter-trend long with defined risk.
However, the higher timeframes remain predominantly bearish, with the 4H, 2H, and 1D all showing solid downtrends. The 8H itself is still in a choppy/sideways bearish phase, and the 1H and 15M are only showing solid bullish trends. This mixed picture implies that the buy signal is a counter-trend bounce within a larger downtrend. The nearest resistance at 1.34191 is the immediate upside target and a key level to watch; a break above it could signal a stronger reversal, while failure to hold above it would keep the broader bearish bias intact. The nearest support at 1.31369 is the critical invalidation level for this bullish signal.
- ▲ Confluence of oversold exit signals (CCI, STOCH, WILLR) and bullish crossovers (ERI, KDJ) on the 8H.
- ▲ Price retreating from the lower Bollinger Band suggests a bounce potential.
- ▲ Short-term timeframes (15M, 1H) are showing bullish trends, supporting the immediate upside move.
- ▼ Higher timeframes (4H, 2H, 1D) are in solid downtrends, which could overpower the bounce.
- ▼ The 8H trend itself is still bearish and choppy, so the signal may be premature.
- ▼ A break below the nearest support at 1.31369 would invalidate the bullish setup.
- ▼ The bounce may stall at the 1.34191 resistance, especially if the broader downtrend resumes.
