USD/JPY Seasonality, More weakness in April

USD/JPY has been unable to sustain any gains during this year and we have moved in a big range for the most part of the year. Even though we managed to make a marginal new high above 122.00 the momentum slowed down and we're back inside the range. Current range extends from the 122.00 resistance level all the way down to 116.00 level(see Figure 1) where we have a strong support and where I'm expecting price to hold and revers to resume to bigger bullish trend we're in. We're in a very wide range…

Update 1: The momentum is already pushing to the downside and we have a case for more downside to come in coming weeks which should help hit our target. First we need a break and a daily close below 118.00 big support level.

good work !!!

Update 2: We have still not break below the 118.00 support level and round number. For now the market seems it's poised to take out the stops above the market price. All those highs from previous days have acumpluate a lot of stops

Daytrader21 avatar

Update 3: We still haven't manged to break below key support zone 118.00 however the pressure is building up strong around that level and once we break below, it should not look back. There is not much of support and us such the price should follow the line of lest resistance, in this regard the market should start breaking to the downside as soon as we open next week from current price of 118.98

USD/JPY Elliott Wave Cycle Completed

Based on the Elliott Wave cycle the bullish trend that started in 2012 in USD/JPY as completed a 5 wave move(see Figure 1) and in this regard now we can expect some type of correction. This bullish move was quite straight forward without much correction only a shallow correction in wave IV. Now that we have completed a 5 wave move Elliott Wave suggest we should expect an ABC correction but this should push us back all the way towards the levels of wave 4 which will be quite a big downside move. …

Update 2: USD/JPY has been contained inside a very tight range between 119.00 resistance zone and 117.00 support zone and also this area is the middle of a much wider range zone (see Figure 2).  Usually it's normal to consolidate in this region however based on Elliot wave we may have just completed a double zig-zag and we can expect the market to start breaking to the upside

Interesting!

Daytrader21 avatar

Update 3: 117.50 is a strong support, however due the fact it was tested for so many times it may be the case it will not hold anymore, in which case my forecast will be wrong. However there is a little chance if we gap to the upside on Sunday at the market open we may be heading back towards 118.00.

Yeah i see your point of wiew even though eliot waves are not my preferate form of analysis. Me to see it at that level. This one could be tight.Cheers

USD/CHF Elliott Wave Count

The broad base dollar strength across the board has manage to change the bearish sentiment on this pair and since beginning of this summer USD/CHF has been trading in an steady bullish trend. Based on Elliott Wave count (see Figure 1) we still have much to go to the upside before to complete a five wave sequence. We have just completed wave III and wave IV is ready to develop a corrective phase before another upward leg to take place and complete the five wave sequence.

Update 1: Wave IV has been deepening below the 0.9450 level however this doesn't change much the price structure and we're on track for further consolidation as usually based on Elliott Wave during wave IV we should expect and ABC correction or some type of consolidation.

Daytrader21 avatar

Update 2: Since we took out the previous swing high at 0.9685 and made a new high this means that the wave IV has ended and wave V is currently developing. This final wave can take shape of another 5 wave of smaller degree. Support remains at 0.9500 big round number which is also the 50% retracement of last up leg from 0.9370 low. Key resistance remains 0.9700

Daytrader21 avatar

Update 3: As expected last week we couldn't break below 0.9500 big round number and neither break above 0.9700 as the market has closed near that level. Although we haven't succeed breaking and closing above 0.9700 the momentum is still to the upside and next week we should expect the up trend to resume. For next week 0.9660 is the support level and we should expect a break above previous swing high 0.9740 and beyond.

Gold Double Inverted H&S Bottom?


Since I start blogging I've been giving out my outlook on gold both short term and long term, outlining the main points of why we may soon start another bullish trend but at the same time being caution of the possibility that we may get another major swing low, below the psychological level $1000, before the resumption of the gold secular bull trend. Here you can find my previous blog posts about gold: …

USD/CAD: Resuming the downtrend

The current USDCAD up trend has already begin to break upwards after 4 months of consolidation. The up drift from the last year low 0.9630 to 1.0610 high, has took shape of and 5 wedge rally within an upward channel. From the first picture we can see how each wave was constituted of 3 wave of minor degree which can be used as a map for future price action. But that up move constitute only the wave I of larger degree, we still have to complete a five wave sequence to conform the Elliott Wave theo…

Just realized I've made a mistake the title should have been :"USD/CAD: Resuming the uptrend" not the downtrend

Daytrader21 avatar

Update 1: The uptrend is intact and very well supportive for more upside movement but for the time being we should expect more consolidation between 1.0700 resistance level and 1.0600 support level. Based on Elliot Wave on wave 4 we should see more consolidation

Daytrader21 avatar

Update 2: For the time being the market is still in a trading range between 1.0730 resistance zone and 1.0560 support zone. And as expected this is typical market action in this stage of Elliott Wave count. We still need a final spike up above resistance zone to complete the 5 wave sequence

Daytrader21 avatar

Update 3: It seems I was right about this pair and once we broke above 1.0660 momentum started to pick up. But I didn't take in consideration that it will go too fast to the upside, we have moved beyond our target . the only way we can see our target reach is to break below 1.1000 and close below that level.

Forex EURGBP Elliot Wave count

EURGBP is in position to resume the uptrend that started from around 0.7700 swing low. Form an Elliot wave perspective we have only completed IV waves of the current up trend and we're in the final stage of this bull run before any significant retracement.(see fig.1)Currently we are in the inception of wave V and termination of wave IV which has yet to be finished and which suggest that the price will still stay within the current market range, as Elliot wave suggest that wave nr IV are usually …

Today we had the first attempt to move higher above the intermediate resistance at around 0.8600 level but it failed to close above. But this test above the current price has cleared all the supply from above and I'm expecting at the next attempt price to push higher as the supply there has got thinner. We have to clear the highs before to continue down so I'm staying bullish for the short-medium term trend.

Daytrader21 avatar

My bias was confirmed after we failed first time to have a daily close above 0.8600 when we turned back we close above the 0.8600 level telling us there is not much supply there and price now has free way to move to the upside

Daytrader21 avatar

This week we almost hit the 0.8700 target, but I'm still expecting price to push up as we are making HH and HL and the momentum is still to the upside so the up trend is still intact. Expecting price to range int he coming days between 0.8600-0.8700

Daytrader21 avatar

In the last week after we manage to break through 0.8700 market was selling off very strong but it found support again around 0.8600 level. The expectation for the coming days is a range bound market action between 0.8700 resistance zone and 0.8600 support zone. So far EURGBP is experiencing a lot of range action so most likely it will follow the same behavior.

Daytrader21 avatar

Last update: We have only one more day to go and the market has already hit my forecast target at 0.8700. If we can manage to close slightly below the round number 0.8700 there is a change that the market would hovering more time around 0.8700. But tomorrow is month end flow so anything can happen. Didn't expected hit my target so precisely.
