Finally, on the 30-minute chart, GBP/NZD broke below both MAs, corrected up, and rejected the 200 EMA. At the same time, it has rejected 76.4% Fibonacci retracement level applied to the previous wave down. The rejection was very clean, followed by a small price drop. Perhaps this is the beginning of a downtrend continuation, as long as the 1.0370 is respected. The downside target from the Daily chart corresponds to the 561.8% Fibs applied to the most recent upside correction, making it the key support level if the price will continue to decline.
