Main scenario

Consider long positions from corrections above the level of 1.3130 with a target of 1.3750 – 1.4000.

Alternative scenario

Breakout and consolidation below the level of 1.3130 will allow the pair to continue dropping to the levels of 1.2760 – 1.2600.

Analysis

The first ascending wave of larger degree 1 of (A) is formed on the daily chart, and a bearish correction is completed as the second wave 2 of (А). The third wave 3 of (А) started developing on the H4 time frame, with the first counter-trend wave of smaller degree i of 3 unfolding as its part. Apparently, a local correction has finished as the wave (iv) of i, and wave (v) of i has begun to develop on the H1 chart. If the presumption is correct, GBP/USD will continue to rise to the levels of 1.3750 – 1.4000. The level of 1.3130 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the pair to continue declining to the levels of 1.2760 – 1.2600.




This forecast is based on the Elliott Wave Theory. When developing trading strategies, it is essential to consider fundamental factors, as the market situation can change at any time.
