Context of US Dollar momentum within waves and Fibonacci 2016.11.04

November 04, 2016 05:45

EUR/USD

4 hour

The EUR/USD indeed built a bearish bounce yesterday at the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level. The bullish momentum was strong which makes a wave 3 (purple) likely. A retracement for wave 4 (purple) seems to be taking place as price is making a triangle. The wave 4 seems likely as long as price remains above the 50% of wave 4 vs 3. The wave 5 could be short as price reaches the resistance trend line (red). A bearish correction could take place as the market awaits the US Presidential Election next week Tuesday.

1 hour

The EUR/USD finished a wave 5 (orange) and built an ABC (blue) correction as expected yesterday. A bounce at the support trend line (green) could complete wave C (blue) whereas a break above resistance (red) could see wave 5 continue.

GBP/USD

4 hour

The GBP/USD is building a WXY (blue) correction within wave 4 (green). Once wave 4 (green) is completed, a downtrend continuation is expected to push below support for wave 5 (blue/purple).

1 hour

The GBP/USD continued higher yesterday which could either mark complete wave c (grey) or wave 3 (purple), which will partly depend on how price responds in this potential wave 4 (purple). A bull flag chart pattern that stays above the 50% Fibonacci level increases the chance of a wave 4. The wave 5 could be short as price reaches the Fibonacci targets. A bearish correction could take place as the market awaits the US Presidential Election next week Tuesday.

USD/JPY

4 hour

The USD/JPY seems to be building a first bounce at the Fibonacci levels of wave 4 vs 3 (blue). A break above resistance (red) could confirm the breakout for wave 5 (blue).

1 hour

The USD/JPY seems to building a wave 12 (brown) and could be starting the wave 3 (brown). A bull flag pattern would increase chances of continuation.
