Weekly Waves: EUR/USD, Bitcoin and gas

  • EUR/USD made a strong bullish bounce at the 78.6% Fibonacci support which confirms the end of the wave B (pink) and the start of the wave C (pink).

  • Bitcoin (BTC/USD) is building a descending wedge chart pattern, which usually breaks bearishly.

  • NGAS made a bearish bounce at the 50% Fibonacci level, which is probably a bearish wave 4 (yellow).

EUR/USD bullish bounce at the 78.6% Fib support

The EUR/USD made a bullish bounce at the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level:

  1. The EUR/USD seems to have completed an ABC (yellow) within a wave B (pink).

  2. There was a strong bullish bounce at the 78.6% Fibonacci support which confirms the end of the wave B (pink) and the start of the wave C (pink).

  3. Price action needs to now break above the resistance (orange) lines to confirm the continuation within the wave C (pink).

  4. The ABC (pink) is expected to complete a wave 4 (gray).

  5. A break below the 78.6% Fibonacci level indicates either a downtrend or complex correction within the wave B (pink).

Chart

Bitcoin builds descending wedge pattern

Bitcoin (BTC/USD) is building a descending wedge chart pattern, which usually breaks bearishly:

  1. The BTC/USD has been testing the support zone (green) multiple times.

  2. So far, BTC/USD was unable to break below the support levels.

  3. But price action was hardly able to move up because it faced strong resistance with every bullish attempt.

  4. The flat bottom but descending resistance line indicates a descending wedge pattern.

  5. A bullish breakout (blue arrow) could indicate an ABC (yellow) within the wave 4’ (pink).

  6. A bearish breakout (red arrows) indicates an immediate downtrend within the wave 3 (orange) of wave 5 (pink).

  7. The bearish targets are at $15k, and $12.5k.

Natural gas bearish bounce at 50% Fib resistance

NGAS made a bearish bounce at the 50% Fibonacci level, which is probably a wave 4 (yellow):

  1. The bearish bounce could indicate a 5 wave (yellow) pattern within a wave C or wave 3 (pink).

  2. A bearish breakout (red arrows) could occur below the last remaining support line (green).

  3. The main targets are $6, $5.50, $5.30 and $5. 

  4. A break below the $5 increases the chance that price action is in a bearish wave 3 (pink) rather than a wave C (pink).

  5. A bullish breakout (blue arrow) above the resistance (orange) could indicate an expanded wave 4.

  6. A break above the 50% Fib places the bearish Elliott Wave analysis on hold.

Following the correction seen in the second half of the previous week, EUR/USD gathers bullish momentum and trades in positive territory near 1.1750. The US Dollar (USD) struggles to attract buyers and supports the pair as investors await Tuesday's GDP data ahead of the Christmas holiday. 

GBP/USD knocks ten-week highs ahead of holiday slowdown

GBP/USD found room on the high side on Monday, kicking off a holiday-shortened trading week with a fresh spat of Greenback weakness, bolstering the Pound Sterling into its highest bids in ten weeks. Pound traders are largely brushing off the latest interest rate cut from the Bank of England as the UK’s central bank policy strategy leaves the water murky for rate-cut watchers.

Gold buying remains unabated; fresh all-time peak and counting

Gold builds on the previous day's blowout rally through the $4,400 mark and continues scaling new record highs through the Asian session on Tuesday. Bets for more interest rate cuts by the US Fed, renewed US Dollar selling bias, and rising geopolitical uncertainties turn out to be key factors driving flows towards the bullion. Traders now look to the delayed release of the revised US Q3 GDP print and US Durable Goods Orders for a fresh impetus.

Year ahead 2026: Where will Bitcoin be in a year’s time?

Bitcoin, which accounts for roughly 60% of total crypto market capitalization, entered 2025 with unstoppable momentum under a crypto‑friendly Trump administration. The rally was supported by major regulatory wins and accelerating institutional adoption.

Ten questions that matter going into 2026

2026 may be less about a neat “base case” and more about a regime shift—the market can reprice what matters most (growth, inflation, fiscal, geopolitics, concentration). The biggest trap is false comfort: the same trades can look defensive… right up until they become crowded.

XRP steadies above $1.90 support as fund inflows and retail demand rise

Ripple (XRP) is stable above support at $1.90 at the time of writing on Monday, after several attempts to break above the $2.00 hurdle failed to materialize last week. Meanwhile, institutional interest in the cross-border remittance token has remained steady.
