British Pound Technical Outlook

The count on the daily, which shows 5 waves down from the 2007 high, indicates that risk of a sharp advance is high. The count that I am working with now treats the rally from 1.35 to 1.4990 as wave A of a flat (flats have subwaves 3-3-5). B waves of flats retrace a significant portion of wave A, sometimes retracing more than 100% of wave A (in the case of an expanded flat). Near term, a drop below 1.3740 may complete wave B.
