The article covers the following subjects:

Major Takeaways

  • Main scenario: Consider short positions from corrections below the level of 158.19 with a target of 148.50 – 138.65. A sell signal: if the price holds below 158.19. Stop Loss: above 158.70, Take Profit: 148.50 – 138.65.
  • Alternative scenario: Breakout and consolidation above the level of 158.19 will allow the pair to continue rising to the levels of 161.96 – 165.50. A buy signal: once the level of 158.19 is broken to the upside. Stop Loss: below 157.70, Take Profit: 161.96 – 165.50.

Main Scenario

Consider short positions from corrections below the level of 158.19 with a target of 148.50 – 138.65.

Alternative Scenario

Breakout and consolidation above the level of 158.19 will allow the pair to continue rising to the levels of 161.96 – 165.50.

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, with wave (А) of 4 completed as its part. The corrective wave (В) of 4 is presumably complete on the H4 chart, with wave С of (В) formed as its part. Apparently, wave (C) of 4 has started forming on the H1 chart, within which the first wave of smaller degree i of 1 of (C) is formed, the local correction is completed as wave ii of 1 of (C), and wave iii of 1 of (C) is developing. If the presumption is correct, USD/JPY will continue to drop to the levels of 148.50 – 138.65. The level of 158.19 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the pair to continue growing to the levels 161.96 – 165.50.




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.
