I start my analysis for this pair briefly with the weekly time frame which i would like to point out that yesterday's high brought price up to nearly the weekly 5 ema which caused a push to the downside. At the same time the weekly 5 ema was nearly touched the daily 13 ema was touched then price fell a bit and settled. When price opened today with the new candle it rose up to the daily 13 ema where it was rejected and has been heading down since. I would also like to point out that that same zone also happened to be the 50.0 fib level of the last major move down on the 4 hour time frame.

GBP/USD Daily 11/30/11

Looking at the 4 hour chart I can see price is heading down to a trend line I have drawn connecting a couple higher lows together. A break below this trend line will confirm further price action taking a dive to the downside. The 5 ema on the 4 hour is rolling down and looks like it may cross below the 13 and 21 ema's and the stochastics is pointing straight down.

GBP/USD 4 Hour 11/30/11

Moving on to the hourly time frame price has just recently broken below the new channel that was trying to develop. The 5 ema has crossed below the other ema's and is heading straight downward.

GBP/USD 1 Hour 11/30/11

Finally, on the 15 minute time frame price has broken below the 233 ema and the 5 has crossed below the 233 as well. Other than expected retracements I expect this pair to only head down.
