GBP USD, “Great Britain Pound vs US Dollar”
After finishing the wave [ii] in the form of the double three, the GBP/USD pair completed the descending impulse in the wave (i). Right now, the price is forming the correctional wave (ii). Consequently, in the nearest future the market may start a new decline in the wave (iii) of [iii].
