UNLOCK OFFER- CAD/JPY bulls in play from support and target a daily extension.
- There are bullish prospects from an hourly perspective on a 38.2% Fibo retracement for the open.
Following on from last week's analysis, CAD/JPY Price Analysis: Bulls stepping in at a discount within long-term bullish trajectory, the cross is indeed headed in a northerly trajectory, albeit correcting.
However, it is expected to continue towards a measured target of 82.9150.
The cross spiked from within 4-hour demand on Thursday to print a higher high in resistance which has now seen the cross buckle to support in the 82.61 territories.
The following is a top-down analysis that illustrates a bullish bias still from a longer-term perspective.
Prior analysis
The daily chart was showing prospects of a bullish fill of the wick left by the strong bid in the cross that crystalised at a 38.2% Fibonacci of the bullish impulse.
From a 4-hour perspective, the set-up was based on the correction's prospective floor at the support structure. While prices ran in drawdown momentarily, bulls were firmer ahead of the previous low and proposed stop-loss zone.
Subsequently, the price has expanded to the upside to print a higher high and closed in bullish territory.
Live market
A breakeven scenario has evolved from a swing trading perspective, but for the open, there is a day trading set-up for the takings.
From an hourly perspective, the price has made a 38.2% Fibonacci retracement and is holding at support structure.
A continuation can be expected to the upside. A -272% Fibo of the correction's range opens prospects to 82.8110 for a1:2 risk to reward ratio.
