GBP USD Elliott Wave 4 Hour Chart 4.29.2017
As we can see on the chart below, rally from the 03/14 low is showing incomplete structure. GBP USD is currently showing 9 swings from the mentioned low, suggesting we should get another leg up, once short term ((b)) pull back complete. With proposed scenario we will get clear 11 swings structure. Although the pair has already reached the extreme area from the 03/14 low at 1.284-1.3801, we knew that extension is possible not only because of incomplete structure in GBP USD, but also because of incomplete bearish swing structure we have had in USDX from the 12/15 peak, calling for more weakness. As GBP USD is inversely correlated with Dollar index, we expect GBP USD to ideally stay supported until USDX reaches extremes in the mentioned cycle.
Now let’s take a look at the short term structure that has been unfolding during the next few days.
