Cable has broken March low (1.4635) and 1.46 level to post new five-year lows (1.4587) before it bounced from Weekly Support 3 and staged 80 pip profit taking rally.

Monthly chart:
Current medium-term downtrend has broken longer-term uptrend, which is marked on the chart as trendline that supported the pair in 2009, 2010 and 2013. After trading down to below 1.50 in January, the pair reversed all sub 1.55 losses in February and even broke above the big level.

Next stronger support now comes near May 2…
