GBPUSD broke the trendline that originates at the July low on 10/29. The line connects the 7/9 and 8/2 lows and crosses through several days in mid-October. This development is an early sign that the entire advance is complete.

-Weakness below 1.5893 would confirm a double top. The measured objective would be 1.5527 (width of range subtracted from 1.5893).

-A return to the upper end of the range would face resistance at 1.6115/62. Near term support is 1.5970.
