-
The EUR/USD bullish breakout is occurring after price action has made a higher low, which is probably a bullish WXY within a wave 4 and a larger downtrend.
-
A bullish breakout above resistance (red box) could see a push up towards the 38.2% Fibonacci level.
-
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) has not made a lower low for at least 4 weeks, which is increasing the chance that the wave A (gray) correction is completed.
EUR/USD bullish correction aims at 1.05
The EUR/USD is breaking above the previous daily highs. Let’s review that to expect next:
-
The EUR/USD bullish breakout is occurring after price action has made a higher low.
-
The larger bearish 3 wave pattern is probably an ABC (yellow) zigzag of a larger WXY correction (gray).
-
The WXY (gray) should fit within a complex wave 4 pattern (pink).
-
The wave 4 (pink) is the main Elliott Wave analysis as long as price action respects the Fibonacci resistance levels and ideally stays below the 38.2% Fibonacci level.
-
Waves 4 are usually complex, lengthy and shallow corrections so a strong bearish bounce at the 38.2% Fibonacci level after a long correction is expected.
-
A break above the 50% Fibonacci level indicates an uptrend rather than a downtrend.
GBP/USD bullish swing aims at 38.2% Fib at 1.25
The GBP/USD has also made a bullish breakout above the resistance trend lines (dotted orange):
-
The GBP/USD seems to be in the same spot and situation as the EUR/USD.
-
We are expecting an ABC (gray) pattern or WXY correction within a wave 4 (pink).
-
The wave 4 remains valid as long as price action respects the shallow Fibonacci levels.
-
A bullish breakout above resistance (red box) could see a push up towards the 38.2% Fibonacci level.
-
A bearish bounce at the 38.2% Fibonacci level is then the most expected scenario.
-
A downtrend continuation could aim for a lower low around 1.15.
BTC/USD bullish bounce aims at $30k
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) has not made a lower low for at least 4 weeks, which is increasing the chance that the wave A (gray) correction is completed:
-
After completing the potential wave A (gray), the BTC/USD is therefore expected to make a bullish retracement within a wave B (gray).
-
The first target is the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level near 30k, which is a heavy resistance zone.
-
A bearish bounce is expected at this 23.6% Fibonacci target.
-
A higher low could then confirm a larger ABC (yellow) within wave B (gray).
-
Another bullish push up towards the 38.2% Fibonacci is then expected, which could also be a bearish bouncing spot to test the support again.
-
Price will then either bounce at support for a move up towards the 50% Fibonacci or for a bearish break and a new low.
