GBPUSD - Triple correction on the way
GBPUSD is moving in a
positive direction by forming higher highs and higher lows which is a positive
sign. In this entire rally from March 2013 to August 2014, prices have not
breached its previous pivot low. Recently after making a high of 1.7190 which
was 7 year high prices in July 2014 started eroding all the gains and moved
below 1.6800 levels. The immediate pivot low is placed at 1.6698 levels which
will play a crucial support for this pair. RSI is also in oversold zone and it
is exhibiting positive divergence which indicates that the downtrend is
exhausting and one should now be cautiously negative.
From wave
perspective, prices are moving in a triple correction pattern, which means
there will be two wave x in between 3 corrective patterns (a-b-c-x-a-b-c-x-a-b-c).
Prices ended its first correction in December 2013 and then it formed wave x at
1.5854 levels, then it moved up and completed second correction when wave c was
in an ending diagonal pattern. Currently it is moving lower in the form of wave
x which can terminate soon and will start the third correction.
In short, the bias
for GBPUSD remains positive as it can move up to test 1.6900 levels or even
higher for short term. For medium to long term, the trend looks firmly bullish.
