GBPUSD Elliott Wave Analysis

Sterling's decline has breached the invalidation boundary established in the earlier November 10 GBPUSD analysis, requiring a reassessment of the anticipated recovery.

The revised count retains blue wave (W) at the preceding peak but reclassifies the subsequent decline as red wave W, followed by a corrective rebound labeled X.

The projected path now anticipates red wave Y extending toward the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement, potentially completing the larger blue wave (X).

A subsequent upward recovery remains favored, although the corrective low has not been confirmed.

Technical Analysis for November 10, 2026

  • Scenario: Previous count invalidated.
  • Structure: Red W–X formed; Y projected.
  • Fibonacci: 61.8% retracement.
  • Upside Reference: 1.35032.

Trader's Question: Would reaching Fibonacci 61.8% confirm the correction has ended?

No. The retracement identifies a potential turning point. Confirmation requires subsequent price action supporting completion of wave (X) and renewed upside.
