GBP/USD

Analysis:

The latest wave structure on the chart of the GBP/USD major pair, which remains incomplete at present, is bullish. The wave started at the beginning of last year.

Over the past week, the price has been forming an intermediate pullback.

Forecast:

Over the coming week, continuation of the overall sideways movement of the British pound within a horizontal range is likely. In the first days, a decline toward the support boundaries is most probable. After that, a reversal and upward price movement can be expected. The highest volatility is likely closer to the weekend.
