GBP AUD short to complete extension, then buy.

Short

Hello analysts and traders.

Important updates - we have been holding a short and enjoying the wave ride down to the demand extension zone.
The market works in waves - it is incredible.

However - we are experiencing at this moment a really nice Fibonacci retracement on the GBP AUD - where AUD is in control more than the GBP despite strong buying net position changes.
