Elliott Wave Forecast Team ElliottWave-Forecast.com

Hello Traders in this blog we will be going through Avalanche which is a crypto related instrument. Since it’s first peak from November 2021 to end a larger degree cycle in (I) it was been correcting lower. It appeared to to have reached equal legs area recently. Already it has been reacting higher from the area from 10.80. The market nowadays mainly is being traded by high frequency machines. That made us here at Elliott Wave Forecast to develop a system that allows us to project the market in a relevant way to match the way the market is being traded. Let’s have a look on AVAX/USDT weekly cycle.

AVAX/USDT Weekly Cycle 02.21.2023

As we can see Avalanche made 5 waves lower from November peak in which ended a. That was the first leg of the corrective decline within larger degree (II). Then it bounced within b in a ((W)) – ((X)) – ((Y)) corrective bounce. And from there it started the potentially last leg lower in c within 5 waves lower. Ever since it broke below a we were able to project the equal legs area lower in which we call high frequency area. High frequency areas in which both sides of the market agree in the next direction of the market. Buyers and sellers fight and the winners control the next wave or cycle. Avalanche has reached the area in which starts from 10.80 to end (II) and we have already seen the first leg reaction higher in wave (1) of ((1)) of I. What we can expect next in pullback in (2) to take place. Afterwards it should find support to extend higher within wave (3). And lastly a pullback in (4) and one more high in (5) to end wave ((1)). Pullback in ((2)) before extends higher in ((3)) then makes a ((4)) and a ((5)) to end I. After I ends a larger pullback in II should take place before further upside longer term.

Let’s have a look as well within the daily cycle of Avalanche since it reached equal legs at 10.52 area.

AVAX/USDT Daily cycle 02.21.2023

As we can see it has ended wave (1) and is trading within wave B of (2). After a new low in C of (2) it should find support to continue higher in wave (3).

AUD/USD flirts with 0.7000, lowest since early August amid bullish USD

AUD/USD hits a fresh low since early August during the Asian session on Friday and looks vulnerable near 0.7000 after breaking below the 200-day SMA overnight. Against the backdrop of the hawkish Fed, a two-day rally in oil prices revives inflation fears and continues to push US bond yields to multi-year highs. Adding to this, geopolitical risks lift the US Dollar to a two-month high, overshadowing RBA rate hike bets and weighing on the pair.

USD/JPY pulls back from three-week high after failing near 159.00

USD/JPY edges lower during the Asian session on Friday, stalling its recent strong move to a three-week high of 159.00 as Japanese Yen bears turn cautious amid intervention fears. Meanwhile, the US Dollar retains a strong bullish undertone as the Fed's hawkish outlook and oil-driven inflation fears continue to push US bond yields to multi-year peaks. Furthermore, the BoJ's dovish rate hike last week might cap JPY and support spot prices.

Gold treads water below $4,300

Gold grabs some buying attention and advances marginally at the end of the week, partially retracing the weekly decline, although it is still navigating below the key $4,300 mark per troy ounce. The fresh selling bias on the Greenback and the modest decline in US Treasury yields appear to support the humble advance in the precious metal.
