On November 2nd, GBPNZD was trading above 1.9550. As of this writing, the pair is hovering slightly below 1.8400, meaning the British pound lost over 1150 pips against the New Zealand dollar in a single month. Fortunately, the Elliott Wave Principle put traders ahead of this sharp selloff. The chart below, published on November 5th,…
EURNZD Bulls Look Better Going into December
Yesterday, we shared our view that despite being down by over 460 pips this month, a bullish reversal can be expected in EURAUD around 1.5500. Now, we are going to take a look at EURNZD, which lost even more in November. The pair plunged from 1.7359 to 1.6515 in the last thirty days, following a…
EURAUD Bears Getting Tired. Bullish Reversal Ahead?
With only one day left, the Euro seems poised to end November in positive territory against the U.S. dollar, following a sharp decline in October. Unfortunately for the bulls, the European currency is still losing to some of its other rivals this month. EURAUD, for example, is down by over 460 pips since the start…
AUDUSD Looking for Support near 0.7160
AUDUSD climbed to 0.8136 in January, but similarly to other major currencies, spent the rest of 2018 declining against the U.S. dollar. The pair fell to 0.7021 on October 26th, but recovered to 0.7338 on November 16th. As of this writing, the Aussie trades at 0.7267 versus the greenback. Should we expect the downtrend to…
USDCAD Rewards the Most Patient Among Bulls
USDCAD climbed to 1.3318 yesterday and seems determined to reach a new 2018 high. The most important reason for the decline in the Loonie is maybe the decline in the price of oil. Unlike crude’s sharp drop, however, USDCAD’s recovery did not develop so smoothly. For every step forward the bulls have been making one…
GBPNZD: Pressure Mounts with Reversal in Place
GBPNZD has been in recovery mode for the past two years. The pair took off from 1.6705 in November 2016 and climbed to as high as 2.0470 in October 2018. The pound’s rally may seem counter-intuitive on the back of Brexit concerns in the United Kingdom, but that won’t be the first time the market…
EURUSD Sharp U-Turn Predicted by Elliott Wave
2018 has so far been a terrible year for EURUSD bears and the month of October made no exception. The pair climbed to 1.1815 in late-September, but could not maintain the positive momentum. By October 31st it was down to 1.1302, losing over 300 pips that month alone. But in the Forex market traders cannot…
Solving USDJPY Riddles with Elliott Wave Hints
Unlike the stock market, where a profitable company with a growing market share will eventually grow in value in the long-term, the Forex market can be a real riddle. Macroeconomic, political and country-specific factors are fighting for influence over currency rates in the $5-trillion-a-day market. USDJPY is one of the most closely followed pairs as…
GBPJPY: Bearish Reversal Expected Near 151.00
GBPJPY has been in recovery mode since it touched 139.90 on August 15th. On September 21st, the pair climbed to a multi-month high of 149.72, but fell to an intraday low of 146.51 yesterday. As of this writing, the Pound is hovering around 147.90 against the Japanese yen. The time is appropriate to apply the…
USDCAD Unreliable Resistance Identified in Advance
After slightly exceeding 1.3000 on October 8th, USDCAD retreated to 1.2926 two days later. Given that the pair has been declining since the 1.3386 top registered in late-June, assuming the bears are returning was quite justified. In addition, there was a declining trend line, which had previously led to significant selloffs on two separate occasions.…
USDJPY Gave Us a Road Map Three Months Ago
There is a reason why it is called “trading” and not “bottom/top picking”. The latter is literally impossible even with the best trading tools and techniques. Even the Elliott Wave Principle, which we consider to be the best method for price behavior analysis, cannot tell us the exact price level at which the market is…
GBPCAD ‘s Rally Needs a Healthy Pullback
October is shaping up to be a good month for GBPCAD bulls. The pair dipped below 1.6600 on October 2nd, but quickly reversed to the upside for a recovery of over 470 pips so far. Earlier today the Pound climbed to as high as 1.7070 against the Canadian dollar. However, extrapolating the current trend into…
A Week of Trend Reversals in the Forex Market
The Forex market was very interesting to observe last week. Major news like the Non-Farm Payrolls report in the U.S., the new trade deal between the USA, Canada and Mexico, and Bank of Japan’s determination to keep fighting deflation all contributed to an eventful five days in the world’s largest market. News and events is…
USDMXN: Is the 18.50 Support Going to Hold?
It has been over two months since our last article about USDMXN. On July 27th, the Forex pair was trading slightly above 18.6150. The Elliott Wave Principle then suggested “a corrective rally to 19.50 – 20.00 is about to interrupt the downtrend in the near future.” The logic behind our optimism was simple: there was…
EURUSD: When the Fed Supports the Elliott Wave View
Following a recovery of more than 500 pips in a little over a month, EURUSD suddenly crashed from 1.1815 to 1.1570 last week, erasing half of its recent progress in just a few days. The selloff came after the Fed raised its benchmark interest rate for the third time this year on Wednesday and promised…
