Lipanj 27, 2016 04:00

GBP/USD

4 hour

The GBP/USD took a strong hit and made a nose dive from 1.50 to 1.32 when the Brexit results were released. The first target of the wave C (green) has been hit and reached but further bearish pressure could mean an extension to the next Fibonacci 127.2% target at 1.25.

1 hour

The GBP/USD seems to building a 5 wave structure (blue) within the wave 5 of the 4 hour chart. Wave 4 (blue) respected the 50% Fibonacci level. A push above the 78.6% invalidates the wave 4. A break below the support trend line (green) could start the wave 5 (blue). A larger wave 4 consolidation where price goes sideways is also possible.

EUR/USD

4 hour

The EUR/USD broke the support trend lines (dotted) upon the British electorate voting for Brexit last week. Price tumbled from 1.14 to 1.09 before retracing back to the 50%. The most likely wave count would suggest a wave 1-2 (green) within a wave 5 (purple) breakout. The wave 5 becomes invalidated if price were to break above the 100% Fibonacci level.

1 hour

The EUR/USD seems to be building a bullish zigzag (brown) correction within wave 2 (green). A break of the support trend line (green) could mark the completion of that wave 2.

USD/JPY

4 hour

The USD/JPY has moved down towards and bounced at the 50% Fibonacci level. Price could bounce at this Fib or fall towards the 61.8%.

1 hour

The USD/JPY is building a bullish zigzag (pink) within wave B (green).
