Elliott Wave Forecast Team ElliottWave-Forecast.com

Since topping on February 16, 2018 high (1.255), EURUSD has continued to make a sequence of lower low. In the 1 hour chart below, the decline to 1.1183 ended wave ((i)) and the bounce to 1.132 ended wave ((ii)). The internal of wave ((ii)) subdivided as a double three Elliott Wave structure. Wave (w) of ((ii)) ended at 1.1287 as a zigzag and wave (x) of ((ii)) ended at 1.1228. Pair then rallied in wave (y) of ((ii)) to 1.132 as a zigzag. This is an example of a double zigzag, which is a special type of a double three. A double zigzag happens when both w and y in double three structure take the form of a zigzag.

Wave ((iii)) is in progress to the downside and subdivides as an impulse Elliott Wave structure. Down from 1.1324, wave i ended at 1.1277, wave ii ended at 1.132, and wave iii ended at 1.122. Expect another leg lower to end wave v of (i), then it should bounce in wave (ii) in 3, 7, or 11 swing to correct cycle from April 12 high (1.1323) before the decline resumes. We don’t like buying the pair and expect sellers to appear in 3, 7, or 11 swing as far as pivot at 1.132 stays intact.

Gold clings to gains just above $5,000/oz

Gold is reclaiming part of the ground lost on Wednesday’s marked decline, as bargain-hunters keep piling up and lifting prices past the key $5,000 per troy ounce. The precious metal’s move higher is also underpinned by the slight pullback in the US Dollar and declining US Treasury yields across the curve.

Ripple Price Forecast: XRP potential bottom could be in sight

Ripple edges up above the intraday low of $1.35 at the time of writing on Friday amid mixed price actions across the crypto market. The remittance token failed to hold support at $1.40 the previous day, reflecting risk-off sentiment amid a decline in retail and institutional sentiment.
