The GBP/USD made a break and pullback above the long-term resistance trend line (dotted red) and is now testing a lower time frame resistance level. The next break could be a bullish continuation within wave 5 (blue). Price will need to stay above the support trend lines (green) otherwise the uptrend is in danger.

The USD/JPY could be building a potential bearish ABC (green) within wave 2 (blue) but price will need to bounce at or above the 100% Fib level, otherwise the wave 1-2 (blue) pattern is invalidated.
