Ready to run!?!

Looks ready to break out of this range to the upside in the UK. Which makes sense given the ZAR/GBP action.

I have been expecting a short-term rally in the gbp-zar but it just hasn't come-yet.

You know my take on this by now.. it will run when you last expect it to!

At R16.75 the gbp-zar has broken down from a massive head and shoulders (the neckline was at about 17.00) which has formed over the last couple of years. If it plays out it could eventually end up at about R10.00, a place we haven't been since Jan 2011 and where there is a massive support line.I still think we are due for a relief rally. After that it is anyone 's guess how far it could fall!

If that were to happen - our economy would tank... they could pretty much turn off the lights! That would set the stage for a complete Rand collapse so...

Unless, of course, it was due to GBP specific weakness and the ZAR went nowhere against any other currencies. I just don't see that however. I must admit that I think the EURO is looking very flaccid at this point though.

This little rally might just be the goodbye kiss but wouldn't surprise me if it gets a little above R17.
