The chart below shows EURJPY in a bullish impulse since the 28th of September 2020. The initial move higher is shown as a leading diagonal with a deep retracement to the 78.6 Fibonacci level.
The bounce of the 78.6 Fibonacci level was in five waves in a minor degree which signalled a reversal to come. Since the 15th of October, we have pushed higher in a bullish one two, one two the major count is shown in the chart below but look for continuation to the upside after we see a correction in the wave iv position.
The current wave count is valid as long as we do not break 123.470, look for buying opportunities on dips. A break of 125.079 opens the door to upside targets of 127.028.
