The EUR/USD broke above the resistance levels and fractals of wave 4 (orange) and the top of wave 1 (blue). The bullish breakout could be part of a wave 3 (blue). This wave count could get confirmed if price manages to reach the 161.8% Fibonacci target at the minimum before building a wave 4.

GBP/USD

4 hour

The GBP/USD failed to break below the previous low which indicate failure to continue with the downtrend. The Cable could be respecting the Fibonacci levels of wave 4 vs 3 (green) and a bullish breakout could indicate the start of wave 5.

The GBP/USD is at crossroads. It could break above resistance (orange) and invalidate the wave 4 correction (orange), which means that a bullish wave (blue) could start. Or price will bounce again at resistance and complete the 5th bearish wave (orange) before completing wave C (grey).

USD/JPY

The USD/JPY is retesting a strong support zone again (green/blue). A break below this support zone could indicate a bearish continuation within wave 2/B (light purple) whereas a bullish bounce could see price complete the wave B/2.

The USD/JPY is showing strong bearish breakout candles below the support trend line (dotted blue). A break below the 100% Fib invalidates the wave 1-2 reversal.
