GBPUSD: Expanding Triangle Within Ending Diagonal: Sell Setup

FX:GBPUSD   British Pound / U.S. Dollar
I haven't posted anything on this pair as of late while waiting for things to clear up somewhat. Well, looks like things are becoming much more clearer as to what is happening and what could potentially happen next. There are appears to be a pretty good sell setup coming soon. Not yet. But soon.

What you are seeing here is an "small" (relatively speaking compared to the ED pattern on the Daily TF) expanding triangle pattern within the larger ending diagonal pattern. This expanding triangle is in the cd leg of the ED. Prices are very quickly heading towards the completion of the expanding triangle.

There is also a POTENTIAL bat pattern defining the cd leg of the ED as well but it's D point is outside the ending diagonal's upper TL D point.. Which on a daily TF scale is not much. Also keep in mind that just because the bat is there DOES NOT mean prices must complete it. If it does complete it, it will mark a good sell point for the ride down to complete the ending diagonal pattern.

On the DAILY TF, you can still see the 2 long-standing harmonic patterns are still in effect. In fact, the ending diagonal should be ending somewhere near to the butterfly's D point completion.

Here is the DAILY chart so you can see the bigger picture:

MY TRADE PLAN
For now, just waiting for prices to finish off that expanding triangle pattern and reach the upper TL of that ED before I will consider taking a SHORT.
