Today’s Binary Options Trading Strategy:
• Currency Pair: GBP/USD
• Timeframe: H4 (Hourly Chart)
• Binary Option Trading Recommendation: Seek binary call options on dips below 1.4875
• Upside Potential: The upside potential for this binary call option is 290 pips to 1.5165
• Downside Potential: The downside potential for this binary call option is 135 pips to 1.4740 The GBP/USD is enjoying a drift to the upside from its current intra-day low of 1.4739 which was reached on April 1st 2015. This intra-day low represents a higher low as compared to its previous intra-day low of 1.4635, which was recorded on March 18 2015. An ascending support level emerged as a result and is supplying upward momentum for this currency pair. The advance reached an intra-day high of 1.4981 on April 6 2015 from where a descending resistance level has halted the drift to the upside. An increase in bullish momentum is now faced with an increase in bearish pressures. 
Price action is currently trading above its ascending support level, but below its descending resistance level. The GBP/USD is expected to successfully breakout above its descending resistance level and challenge its price spike from March 18 2015. Binary options traders can take advantage from the anticipated breakout with binary call options. Today’s binary options trading strategy suggests call options to be placed on dips below 1.4875 for a risk/reward ratio of 1.0/2.15. The GBP/USD was exposed to a trading environment which featured a drastic contraction in volatility after the price spike from March 18th 2015, but an increase in volatility is anticipated as this currency pair is now trading in a narrowing triangle formation. Sellers are expected to pressure the GBP/USD below its ascending support level, but its most recent intra-day low is unlikely to be violated to the downside. Buyers are likely to attempt a breakout above its descending resistance level and accelerate back into its horizontal resistance level. This favors binary call options in the GBP/USD currency pair. The first resistance level, after a successful breakout above its descending resistance level, awaits the GBP/USD at its intra-day high of 1.4981 which was reached on April 6 2015. This level marks the high of its previous advance and is the only resistance level for the GBP/USD between its current level and its final resistance level of the expected advance. The final resistance level is located at its intra-day high of 1.5164 which was recorded on March 18th 2015. This level represents the high reached during the price spike post US Federal Reserve disappointment.
