The British Pound crosses have dropped into long term support.

GBPCHF

Longer term, a drop below the all-time low at 1.7537 is possible if not probable given that the rally from 1.7537 is in 3 waves. The trendline that has held since November 2007 defines the trend. Divergence with RSI on the weekly suggests that the line could be put to the test before a drop to a new low.

GBPCAD

There is no discernible pattern (long or short term) in the GBPCAD. The pair is nearing long term support at 1.7668/1.8059 from the lows in 1989 and 1993. These levels are defended by a downward sloping support line drawn off of the 2003 and November 2005 lows.

GBPAUD

The GBPAUD has entered a support zone that began with former resistance from the September 18th high at 2.3167. Potential measured support from the 61.8% retracement of 2.0291-2.7110 is at 2.2666. The long term trend is viewed as up so signs of a low near there would warrant a bullish bias.

GBPNZD

The long term trend is considered up. The false breaks of the long term support line in late 2005 and early 2008 should serve to fuel a rally. Ideally, the double bottom at 2.41 remains intact.
