Alternative Scenario
Breakout and consolidation below the level of 1.3132 will allow the pair to continue declining to the levels of 1.2936 – 1.2735.
Analysis
On the weekly time frame, an ascending wave of larger degree (A) of B is developing. Within it, wave 1 of (A) has formed, and a downward correction has completed as wave 2 of (A). On the daily time frame, the third wave 3 of (А) has presumably started unfolding, with the first wave of smaller degree i of 3 continuing to form as its part. The H4 time frame shows that wave (iii) of i has presumably formed, a downward correction has completed as wave (iv) of i, and wave (v) of i is currently developing. If the presumption is correct, the GBP/USD pair will continue to rise to the levels of 1.3850 – 1.4000. The level of 1.3132 is critical in this scenario as its breakout will allow the pair to continue declining to the levels of 1.2936 – 1.2735.
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.
