Weekly waves: EUR/USD, GBP/USD and Gas

  • The EUR/USD is approaching a key resistance zone at the 38.2%-50% Fibonacci levels (red box) at the 1.05-1.0575 zone.

  • The GBP/USD is breaking above the 50% Fibonacci resistance level, which is undermining the long-term bearish wave analysis.

  • The NGAS has completed a 5 wave pattern (green) in wave C (yellow) of a larger wave X (pink). Price action has reached the -61.8% Fibonacci target which is a key level.

EUR/USD reaches key 38.2-50% Fibonacci resistance zone

The EUR/USD is showing a short-term uptrend with higher highs and higher lows but what is the long-term picture? Let’s review:

  1. The EUR/USD made a bullish breakout above the resistance trend lines (dotted red).

  2. The EUR/USD is approaching a key resistance zone at the 38.2%-50% Fibonacci levels (red box) at the 1.05-1.0575 zone.

  3. A bullish breakout would indicate a larger bullish retracement such as a 12345 (green) pattern.

  4. A bearish bounce makes a different ABC (yellow) pattern possible within a complex WXY (pink) pattern of wave 4 (gray).

  5. The key pattern is the bull flag pattern after the bullish breakout, which makes a wave 4 (green) pattern likely.

GBP/USD breaks above key 50% Fibonacci level

The GBP/USD is breaking above the 50% Fibonacci resistance level, which is undermining the long-term bearish wave analysis:

  1. The GBP/USD bullish breakouts above the resistance trend lines (dotted red) indicate a large bullish retracement.

  2. A bullish continuation followed by a bull flag pattern indicates a wave 345 (orange) pattern.

  3. A strong bearish bounce, however, could still indicate an ABC (yellow) within a complex WXY (pink) of a larger wave 4 (gray).

  4. The GBP/USD is at a key critical zone where price action is testing a bull-bear line. A break or bounce is critical for the next price swing.

Natural Gas reaches key -61.8% Fibonacci target

NGAS is back into a bearish mode after making a strong move up:

  1. The NGAS has completed a 5 wave pattern (green) in wave C (yellow) of a larger wave X (pink).

  2. Price action has reached the -61.8% Fibonacci target which is a key level.

  3. A bearish breakout below the support zone (blue box) could indicate a decline towards the Fibonacci targets.

  4. The bearish breakout could confirm a new bearish 5 wave pattern (green).
