On top of that, U.S. existing home sales increased 2.6%, while analysts had expected an increase of 2%.

GBP/USD Elliott Wave Analysis: Reversal To Come!? / Currencies / British Pound
By: Gregor_Horvat
GBP/USD hit a new highs of the year last week week at 1.7190, but then turned back down through 1.7057. Notice that this was fourth wave low, so if this swing is broken, then we can assume that pair accomplished a five wave rise. As such, we expected weaker pound now, but from minimum point of view that would be with three legs down, so more weakness to come after a wave 2/B rally that may look for a resistance this week around 1.7140.

One such opportunity may be about to present itself this week. Let’s take a look beginning with the daily chart.Read full article... Read full article...

I think there's a lot of different things happening.
