Different moving averages (MAs) help us better identify trends across multiple time frames. We use 3 basic MAs to find out which sentiment dominates each horizon. The purple line represents the monthly , the green line the 6 months and the yellow line the annual moving average. GBP/USD is in bearish sentiment in the case of monthly MA, after falling below it. As we can see in the chart below, the 6 months and annual MAs are still in bullish sentiment..

Since September 2020, there have been upward trends that have not exceeded more than 4 consecutive days. Downward trends did not exceed more than 2 days in the same period. We could use the average long-term ATR (Average True Range) obtained from daily data (0.85% ) to estimate Stop Loss orders for our positions. The current value is 0.71% . Approximately 90% confidence interval (return between -1% and 1% ) is shown in the histogram below by a red rectangle. We could use the last decile of low to high returns (1.50% ) to estimate Profit Targets, as shown in the second chart below.

Basic technical analysis still supports bullish sentiment, as the exchange rate creates higher lows and higher high. However, EUR/USD is currently also close to the demand zone (green rectangle) with a strong bottom, where the Fibonacci retracement level of 38.20% is. In addition, the shorter-term MA has also recently been very close to the exchange rate. Volumes are slowing down. The divergence between price development and RSI could also motivate short-term bulls and bring the upward rebound to a psychological level of 1.4000 or even higher to 1.4200.
