There is a long term bullish opportunity in the British Pound / New Zealand Dollar.




A clear 5 wave decline is evident in the GBPNZD from the 2000 top to the 2005 low.  After 5 waves in one direction, a countertrend move occurs in 3 waves.  From the 2005 low, waves A and B of what is probably a flat are complete.  Wave C of the flat is expected to end above the wave A high of 3.0702.  


The GBPNZD has formed a base from which to work higher.  Ideally, price remains above 2.5726 on its way to a break above 3.  On the 60 minute chart, the advance from 2.5726 looks like an impulse and the ensuing decline held at the 61.8% level.
