GBP/AUD Brexit Bear?

Here is one that may cheer the Brexit Bears out there, I think this pair is showing very Bearish in the long term.

Looking at the Monthly chart ( I wish I had more data further back on this one!) it seems like a long term decline, not surprising given that Australia missed out on the Credit crunch recession and have had a euphoric domestic housing market bull run.  AUDUSD has been in decline since mid 2011, coincident with the commodities peak and drop (a major impacting factor not to be overlooked - i.e. you have to analyse commodities for anything to do with AUD even if you don't want to trade commodities!  Markets are connected).  On GBP/AUD there has been a steady decline to Q1 2013 then a sharp rally and equally share counter rally ending in the GBP flash crash with a double bottom.  At face value this looks like the beginning of a strong rally in GBP/AUD, and this is a possible scenario.  A double bottom and jump away in such a strong fashion is Bullish in nature.

Looking at the Weekly chart, we can see the W1 [purple] top and double bottom pin bar spike up on GBP flash crash but what is interesting is that all of the price action since then has been contained in a large Triangle (which could be a massive Pennant - Bearish!).  If it is a Pennant and the Pennant occurs at halfway on the motive wave then this pair could drop as low a 10,000 area (theoretical at present).  This Triangle has had a breakout of late and a failed retest and is now moving back down.  Zooming in on the Weekly chart (Version A) I can see a Classic Head & Shoulders formation (blue circles) and neckline break and retest (at the top of the Triangle), again very Bearish.  Note also a significant negative momentum divergence on the Weekly chart at the top of the Pennant (at pink 1) 

Now let's look at the Daily chart.  We can see the underside of the Large scale Triangle (purple line) and a Retrace Triangle (blue lines) both of which have had breakouts to the Bearish side.  Note a momentum divergence at the failed retest of the Large Pennant.  The price action is following a 1-2 series of retraces ever diminishing and if concluded to the downside will culminate if a strong bearish move.  Not also yet another H&S formation with a neckline down around the 17,300 mark.

Looking at the Hourly chart I we can see that set of 1-2 retraces I was mentioned above.  There was, and perhaps still is a chance the retrace will carry back to the 18,300 mark but the pin bar earlier today and fast move down from there is Bearish.  A break of the recent support around 17,950 would confirm my analysis for me, although a retrace back to that support/resistance zone post breakout cannot be ruled out.

Long term scenarios:

Looking back at the Monthly Chart I can see 2 scenarios that could play out as follows:

  1. The double bottom marks the lower point and the current bearish move is a retrace (pink 1-2) that will conclude and rally around the 16,000 area.  For this to happen though AUD needs to fall a lot more slowly vs USD than GBP and every other currency probably and more likely even rally.  I wonder what could support such a scenario...?
  2. The 16,000 mark is broken through and this pair carries our down to wherever!

Note in either scenario there should be a move down to the 16,000 mark!  Unless I am completely wrong and GBP catches a massive bid while AUD languishes...

    • Source: Coingecko  Source link: https://www.coingecko.com/research/publications/2024-q1-crypto-report The cryptocurrency sector has experienced significant growth in 2024, driven by events like Lugano city's acceptance of crypto payments and the approval of the Bitcoin spot ETF. The industry's market cap reached a record high of $2.9 trillion, with $1.1 trillion added in Q1 alone. Bitcoin surged to a new peak of $73k, surpassing its previous ATH of $68k. Top centralized exchanges like Binance, Bitget, OKX, and Bybit saw substantial growth, with Bitget particularly excelling in derivative trading. Bitget's open interest exceeded OKX's and ranked closely behind Binance and Bybit. Spot trading volume surged from $29B in January to $95B in March, elevating Bitget to the top 7 spot in the spot market and maintaining the 4th position in the derivative market among major centralized exchanges. While other exchanges also witnessed significant growth, Bitget's standout performance has made it the focal point of industry attention. What are your impressions of these findings?
    • DogeDay always brings back memories of 2019 when my friends were diving into Dogecoin and joining farming activities. That's why I'm excited to explore the Bitget DogeDay giveaway event. Plus, with tomorrow's BTC halving, the excitement is doubled!
    • As a meme fan, I have been waiting patiently for the Bull trend that happened to BTC recently to get to all the alts and so we can have what we had back then in 2021 to happen again, but time the strength of the uptrend has not been able to match up with what I am expecting and I do hope that the halving will help, but looking at the hype that is usually expected from the meme community. I don't think I'll be able to wait for the trend to resume and so I am taking more steps ahead of the game, taking up all the opportunities I believe would help the price-trend of my holdings, especially for the DOGE memes and I have found this DOGEDAY event ongoing and it really made a lot of sense to me, because if we look at how the DOGE coins have performed in the past. I believe if we can have a Bitcoin day to celebrate the first cryptocurrency, then we should be able to have a DOGEDAY too looking at the success rate of the meme and the support from the community. For me, this is something special that is worth the energy, vibes and hype and worth participating it. There are different sections to the event, which include the Twitter part, where Bitget is sharing $3,00 to those participating( https://twitter.com/bitgetglobal/status/1780495739984150962Twitter Post ) and the telegram event, and I believe this will favour those that love to bet on the price of coins. They are sharing 100BGB tokens for this and the Discord event has a 90BGB token to be shared.  If we can have Bitcoin's day, then this DOGEDAY should be observed in all the DOGE communities and I will admonish meme lovers to observe events like this because it reflects the nature of memecoin and the hype around it.
