GBP Trend Analysis
GBP has enjoyed a powerful Uptrend into the end of 2029, hitting a high of 1.35.14. Most recent price action has seen sterling correct to support zone of 1.28 to 1.30, last trading at 1.306 in an attempt at unwinding it's over bought state.
There is heavy support under sterling all the way from 1.30, 1.28, 1.25, and then 1.20.
Whilst resistance is at 1.35, 1.375, 1.44. and 1.475, that is the likely upper limits for what one can expect during 2020.
TREND CHANNELS - GBP is trading in a powerful up channel, currently just managing to stay within it. However, I don't think this channel will be sustainable for 2020 as it would imply we could see sterling trading at 1.70 by year end!
TRENDLINES - A break of the trendline from 1.35 will likely signal a trend to resistance at 1.44. Whilst I suspect GBP's support trend currently at about 1.30 to break, i.e. the trajectory is not sustainable, thus a new support trend like is likely to form, maybe off a low of 1.28. over the next few weeks.
MACD - Is overbought and suggests further consolidation is likely before GBP resumes it's bullish trend to first target a break of 1.35. Though this suggest to expect GBP to mark time before trending higher rather than to trend lower.
ELLIOT WAVES - Keeping it simple. The GBP bear market bottomed at 1.15 in 2017. Wave1 peaked at 1.44 in early 2018. Wave 2 abc terminated in August 2019. Which suggested to expect an impulse Wave 3. So far price action has been impulsive in nature. Thus EWT implies we are in a GBP bull market that should see sterling trade well north of the previous high of 1.44. Maybe even 1.70 IS achievable, though likely not in 2020 but could be during 2021!
