Expertise: Technical
Average Time Frame of Trades:
 



In a technical alert at DailyFX on Thursday, I wrote that “the GBPUSD low today (just a few hours ago) occurred right at Elliott channel support.  Elliott channeling is a technique that is used to identify wave 4 lows - among other significant points…the implications are bullish as wave 5 may be underway now towards 1.5300 (wave 5 = wave 1 at 1.5300).”  The GBPUSD has slipped from a high of 1.5269 today, strongly suggesting that 5 waves from 1.4396 are complete.  Furthermore, the entire rally from 1.35 may now be complete as a 4th wave correction.  Near term resistance is at 1.5131 and a bearish bias is warranted against 1.5269.
