GBP/USD: pound is making wedges
2019-11-11 • Updated
Recommendation:
SELL 1.3105
SL 1.3160 TP1 1.2890
TP2 1.2710
On the daily chart, GBP/USD is consolidating between 1.3045 and 1.3320. A break of its upper border will create grounds for the pound’s increase to 1.3415 and 1.3520. On the other hand, successful test of support at 1.3045 will increase the risks of the pair going to 200% target of AB=CD.
On H1, after forming “Wolfe waves” USD/CHF formed a “Widening wedge”. As usual, the pair’s advance above 88.6% of the wave 4-5 is used for buying, while the fall below 23.6% is used for selling.
