GBP/CAD 4-hour Chart
A break below the lower boundary line and then below 1.7871 (November 6 low) would probably confirm a decisive breakdown and lead to a decline to 1.7719, the October 3 swing low.
GBP/CAD broke temporarily above the upper guardrail of the Rising Wedge pattern on several occasions (blue circles on chart) on September 20 and November 1. This could be a sign of bullish exhaustion and an early warning of impending reversal.
