The best method to identify a classic“price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar , a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the
price action
that occurs at the given levels/USD Analysis

I wrote in my previous forecast for the GBP/USD currency pair that if we got two consecutive lower hourly closes below the big round number at $1.2500, we would see a stronger fall over the rest of the day, so the area between $1.2500 and $1.2517 looked likely to be pivotal.

This was a good call, but the lower hourly closes were so strong that they pushed the price down almost as far as the nearest support, so the price had no more room to fall, so there was not a good opportunity there.

The technical picture has become more bullish, as the price continues to advance to new 2-month highs above $1.2600. The bullish momentum is weak, but the US Dollar is falling within a long-term bearish trend, and this suggests higher prices are most likely here. However, it's a quiet Monday and we might not see much action in the market today.

I see the technical picture as basically bullish as long as the price remains above the nearest support level at $1.2587, so I am prepared to enter a new long trade from any bullish bounce which we might get off this level, especially if the rejection respects the round number at $1.2600 as well.

There is nothing of high importance scheduled today concerning either the GBP or the USD.
