The GBP/USD seems to have completed multiple wave 5s at the recent top. The 5 wave decline (purple) only supports this wave outlook. Let’s review the key zones and patterns:

  • The bearish 5 waves completed a wave A (red). 
  • A larger bearish ABC (red) pattern is expected.
  • The push up is probably an ABC (purple) within wave B (red).
  • This ABC pattern remains valid as long as price stays below the top (red circle).
  • A break (dotted orange) below the support line (green) of the uptrend channel indicates an early bearish bounce at the 38.2% Fib (yellow circle).
  • A break above the 38.2% Fib confirms a deeper bullish break towards the Fibonacci retracement levels. 

On the 1 hour chart, price completed a 5 wave pattern (purple) in wave A (red). Now a bullish ABC pattern could take the price up higher. 

  • A bearish breakout below the support line (green) indicates a deeper retracement (yellow circle).
  • A break below the bottom indicates that the ABC (purple) pattern is completed sooner than expected (red circle).
  • A bounce at the support zone (green box) indicates a push up towards the Fibonacci confluence.
