The British Pound crosses have come into significant support.  The GPBCHF is testing its all-time low.

The GBPCHF is heading towards parallel channel support.  The horizontal line at 1.7537 is the all-time low, which the pair is now putting to the test.  The parallel support line comes in at 1.70 next week.  Beware that a bottom could form given the test of the all-time low / RSI divergence.   

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. 

This is one possible long term outcome.  The top that formed in 2001 above 3.00 led to a decline that can be counted as a 5 wave drop.  The massive spike from 2.0291 may be a B wave (or second wave) that will be fully retraced.  Such spikes do often mark significant turning points.

A 5 wave drop is much clearer in the GBPNZD (from 2000 to 2005).  Sideways trading since then may could be taking the form of a B wave.  This outlook favors range traders although the GBPNZD is in the middle of the multi-year range right now.
