The GBPUSD reached 1.6997 and posted a hammer candlestick, reversing its course. This fuelled a strong suspicion of an intervention by the BOE to keep the pound below 1.70 USD and to protect it from the falling EURO.
The new trend might take the currency to the area 1.6378-1.6304 and to 1.60.
TARGETS:
likely: 1.6378-1.6304
possibly: 1.60291.5982
maybe: 1.5765-1.5709

THE WAVE OSCILLATOR
The wave Oscillator displays the typical Reversal Cusps. BTW, unless the GBPUSD plunges vertically, the W.O. should deliver an entry point only after a rebound.
