The GBP/USD kicks off the new trading day just above the daily 21 ema with a 5 ema trying to cross above the 13 ema and a daily stochastic pointing up, however, price is also caught in a fib zone to the downside and price is right in the 38.2 fib level of the last move down.

GBP/USD Daily 12/8/11

On the 4 hour time frame the upper Bollinger band is open and pointing up and price is riding just above the 5 ema but up against the 144 ema as well as the 38.2 fib of the last major move down. It is very obvious while looking at the 4 hour price action that price has been in a range since yesterday.

On the hourly time frame price has been in a bit of a tight range and the 5 ema and the 13 ema are getting very close to each other indicating minimal volatility and momentum.

GBP/USD 1 hour 12/8/11

Finally, on the 15 minute ema's are all bunched up together and the Bollinger bands are narrow indicating low volatility. Price is in a tight range on the 15 minute time frame and we will have to wait for price to break the range in either direction before taking on any positions.
