Key Quotes
"Following the path of the green No-vote scenario as described in last week's chart special on Cable we now see room to perform a zigzag countertrend rally (wave B) to 1.6622 (int. 50 %), which is the classical wave a target, whereas wave could potentially stretch out to 1.6923 (minor 76.4 %) at a later stage."
"This however only applies as long as key-support between 1.6248 and 1.6164/62 (minor 76.4 % on 2 scales/pivot) is defended, as breaks below would call for a straight test of lower supports at 1.6002 (50 % on big scale) and at 1.5852/1.5752 (pivots)."
