Gbp/Usd in the short term

Posted on September 25, 2008 at 10:15 in Short-Term Analysis by Valeria Bednarik

The pair remains bullish in 4 Hours charts, and quoting around 1.8600, well above the daily 38.2% Fibonacci level and guided by an ascendant trend line, yet unable to continue for now, although a fresh 4 week high at 1.8668. Above 1.8635, the maximum could be re tested, and above it, next resistances will be the zone around 1.8710 and finally the tough 1.8800 level. Regarding supports, only under 1.8555 we could see some retracement, first to the zone around 1.8514, and then the zone between 1.8480/60, under which, the pair could gain some bearish momentum, at least to the zone around 1.8400.

    Hi,

    GBP is about to hit the 61.8% fibb level of 2.0158 to 1.7440 at 1.9114

    if that gives aways, then 50% retracement fo A-B-C correction from 2.1160

    38.2% - 1.8861

    50% - 1.93 (strong resistance around 1.9365 levels

    61.8% - 1.9740

    but another pair which is giving support to bullish GBP is GBPJPY

    I am counting this way

    1st wave starting point - 250 to 220
    2nd wave - 220 to 240
    3rd wave -240 to 192
    4th wave - 192 to 215.70
    5th wave - 215.70 to 185

    now A-B-C correction should come atleast 50-60% of entire rally

    which may take this pair above 220 levels.

    either JPY will depreciate to 113 levels or else GBP may appreciate to above said levels fo 1.93/97 levels

    I request you to kindly share your view on this .

    regards

    Krishna

    Hi Krishna great comment. Regarding GBP/USD yes the probable target is that Fibo level, although I fin the 1.8800 to be the key level to consider: above this, 1.9110 zone will surely get exposed and be a great target zone. Regarding ELLIOT waves… funny thing.. many many years ago, I started on forex as an investor, with an “operator” specialliced in Elliot waves.. the worst scam of South America I believe and that’s when I decided that if I wanted this to be well done, I have to do it for myself.. anyway and despite my years of study.. still “wave counting” gave me cold shivers, as till now of course, never get a penny back. For what I see, you made your count in weekly charts, and looks fine to me in GBP/JPY, but if you let me, I will ask a college of mine, Mr. Matias Salord, and in a few minutes make a post about the pair.
    Regards
    Val
