The British pound initially fell during the day but then bounced again and then fell again. By doing so, we are starting to form a bit of a symmetrical triangle, and it’s possible that we are starting to see the 140 level offer a significant amount of support. A breakdown below there has me selling, and a move above the 141 handle has be buying. We recently broken down below an uptrend line, and that does concern me. Nonetheless, I believe that you are better served waiting for the market to tell you which direction to trade, and then jumping on the opportunity.
