The article covers the following subjects:

Major Takeaways

  • Main scenario: Consider short positions from corrections below the level of 148.15 with a target of 138.65 – 131.50. A sell signal: the level of 148.15 is broken to the downside. Stop Loss: above 149.00, Take Profit: 138.65 – 131.50.
  • Alternative scenario: Breakout and consolidation above the level of 148.15 will allow the pair to continue rising to the levels of 151.32 – 154.70. A buy signal: the level of 148.15 is broken to the upside. Stop Loss: below 147.20, Take Profit: 151.32 – 154.70.

Main Scenario

Consider short positions from corrections below the level of 148.15 with a target of 138.65 – 131.50.

Alternative Scenario

Breakout and consolidation above the level of 148.15 will allow the pair to continue rising to the levels of 151.32 – 154.70.

Analysis

The daily time frame shows that the ascending wave of larger degree 3 is presumably formed, and the bearish correction continues developing as the fourth wave 4, within which wave (А) of 4 and the corrective wave (В) of 4 are completed. On the H4 time frame, wave (C) of 4 is in progress, with the third wave 3 of (C) forming within. Apparently, the third wave of smaller degree iii of 3 is forming on the H1 time frame, within which a local correction is presumably completed as wave (iv) of iii and wave (v) of iii is developing. If the presumption is correct, the USD/JPY pair will continue to drop to the levels of 138.65 – 131.50. The level of 148.15 is critical in this scenario, as a breakout will enable the pair to continue rising to the levels of 151.32 – 154.70.

This forecast is based on the Elliott Wave Theory. When developing trading strategies, it is essential to consider fundamental factors, as the market situation can change at any time.
