Elliott wave analysis of GBP/JPY for August 14, 2020

GBP/JPY pushed higher as expected but fell short of the ideal target by just 15 pips, but all requirements have been fulfilled and a correction in blue wave iv could start anytime now. A break below minor support at 139.48 and more importantly a break below support at 139.09 will confirm that blue wave iii has been completed and blue wave iv is in motion for a dip at least to 138.39 and likely even closer to 137.81 before the next impulsive wave higher occurs.
