Stop:-

The British pound met resistance at 1.2950 and retreated, suggesting minor consolidation below this level would be seen and weakness to 1.2870-75 cannot be ruled out, however, break of 1.2845-50 is needed to signal top is formed, bring test of indicated support at 1.2830, only a break below support at 1.2830 would revive bearishness and signal the rebound from 1.2769 low has ended, bring further fall to 1.2800 first.

Our preferred count on the daily chart is that cable’s rebound from 1.3500 (wave (A) trough) is unfolding as a wave (B) with A ended at 1.7043, followed by triangle wave B and wave C as well as wave (B) has ended at 1.7192, the subsequent selloff is the larger degree wave (C) which is still unfolding with minor wave (III) of larger degree wave 3 ended at 1.1986, hence wave (IV) correction is in progress which could either be a triangle wave (IV) of a complex formation but upside should be limited to 1.3500 and price should falter well below 1.4000, bring another decline in wave (V) of 3 for weakness to 1.1500, then 1.1200.

On the upside, above said resistance at 1.2950 would signal the rebound from 1.2769 low is still in progress and may extend gain to 1.2975-80, however, reckon resistance at 1.3015 would limit upside, bring further choppy trading later. Only a break of said resistance at 1.3015 would signal the correction from 1.3048 top has ended, bring resumption of upmove for retest of this level first.
