Euro Rally Likely Before Next Collapse
Thu, Aug 28 2008, 05:48 GMT
by Jamie Saettele
The recent collapse in the EURUSD is probably the beginning of a larger decline that could reach 1.35 in the next few months. Still, markets do not move in a straight line. Rather, they zigzag, and a sizeable bounce is probably underway now that will correct the extreme bearish sentiment that currently exists.
The recent collapse in the EURUSD is probably the beginning of a larger decline that could reach 1.35 in the next few months.
Coming under the 200 day SMA indicates a long term change in trend and the momentum extreme with RSI also suggests additional losses. Momentum extremes occur at the beginning or middle of a trend, not the end (this is why there is divergence at the end of a trend, when rate of change is weaker). Still, markets do not move in a straight line. Rather, they zigzag, and a bounce is probably underway now that will correct the extreme bearish sentiment that currently exists.
The rally from 1.4630 and decline from 1.4908 were both in 3 waves. 2 legs that both consist of 3 waves only happen as part of flats or triangles. If a triangle, then price will remain below 1.4908 but still move higher from current price. If a flat, then price will exceed 1.4908 and test the 1.4980-1.5080 congestion zone before turning lower in larger wave C. We favor the flat in order to relieve the market of excess Euro shorts.
