Going Short On GBPJPY

GBPJPY – Liquidity Setup and Short Opportunity

GBPJPY has a consistent behavior of creating liquidity before the London session ("pre-London"), only to retrace and sweep that liquidity during the actual London session before making its true directional move.

This pattern plays out frequently, and we take advantage of it on a daily basis. Typically, price forms inducement zones or liquidity traps just before the session opens — which then get taken out as part of the London open volatility.

Currently, GBPJPY has created such a setup, and based on this recurring behavior, I’m going short, anticipating a liquidity sweep before the pair resumes its broader directional move.

Key Factors:

Pre-London liquidity build-up observed

London session expected to sweep high/lows

Short setup in play based on this repeatable model


Traders familiar with session-based liquidity trading will recognize this as a high-probability setup.
