Triangle Finished? At Support Now Short

Euro Fx/U.S. DollarFXCM

Opis

In yesterday's webinar for the TradingView community, we talked about the EURUSD in the current market environment. (see the video clip from the 1:26:07 - 1:27:45 mark -> youtube.com/watch?v=1jE31mbhpDk&feature=youtu.be&a )

It appears as though the pair has finished a blue 'b' wave triangle and we are thrusting lower in the 'c' leg of a zig zag.

There is another alternative that resolves as a bearish scenario as well and that is yesterday's high was the end of wave 2 of v. That would imply a sharp move lower in wave 3 of v.

There is a bullish pattern I'm watching as well that becomes higher probability on a move near 1.07. For the time being and all patterns considered, the patterns suggest prices may push towards 1.07.

Inspecting FXCMSentiment, it has shifted harshly from -1.5 yesterday to +1.2 now. This shift towards the positive is bearish the pair and may provide a tailwind for it. Follow EURUSD real time SSI here.

I'm curious what the other ElliottWaver's are considering.

Happy trading!

1.0985 is the key level. Above 1.0985 I'll be flat awaiting 1.1085 to break to go long. Below 1.0985, still look for lower levels to 1.07 area.

Price has bounced from the support from when this was originally published. 1.0985 is a stone's throw away in that if broken, we'll be flat awaiting more clarity or 1.1085 to break. A resting entry order to buy is up at 1.1085.

FXCMSSI continues to drop and is not sitting at -1.77...as we sit at resistance, keep an eye on the live feed.

The birth/death model on non-farm payroll for January (today's release) seasonally takes away jobs. Therefore, I'm mentally prepared for a worse than expected payroll figure which might add more fuel to the dovish Fed rhetoric. That may end up weighing on the USD pushing EURUSD higher. Live FXCMSSI is currently -1.93 which favors the upside in EURUSD as well.

The support level to watch was the former breakout level of 1.1087. If you are in a USD trade, be mindful of the potential volatility coming up later this morning.

The sentiment switched again from +1,2% to - 1,70% now. Now it appears that price will go more up....

Good catch PaQu - sentiment is growing more negative which favors the bulls. A break above 1.1085 would be significant and enough to position me to the long side.

Thanks. Your explanation how to read sentiment changes was very helpful. Thanks a lot and good luck!

Impressive chart Mr. J,
this is what I'm consider since few weeks back. A Bull sideways correction.

the latest downslide makes me to disregard the Bear Triangle formation...since the drop were not so impulsive in micro structure (1min chart). Followed by 1H RSI, which drop faster than price and setting price-rsi ratio to another possible bullish divergence.
In lower TF wave counts, the sudden drop is more like an X wave of W-X-Y formation of (d) wave which is incomplete yet.
Expecting a bull next week back to level 1.0980s level.

Impressive back to you Romeo. One heck of a sideways consolidation. GBPUSD looks constructive to the upside and NZDUSD up move looks contained to a temporary correction. So it appears to be a USD mixed move for the time being.

Thanks for that JW I'll be watching:)

Hi JW, my latest thoughts and update - possible ending diagonal? what do you think?
JWagnerFXTrader
An ending diagonal is a possibility for a wave 5 lower, but I would label it differently.

Consider that each leg of an ending diagonal must be 3 wave zig zags. Therefore, it is possible the Aug 24-Dec3 move was A-B-C for wave 1 of the diagonal. Now, we are potentially in wave 2 which also needs to be a zig zag.

Under this diagonal wave count, prices must remain below the Aug 24 high. Dec 3 through today must be an A-B-C zig zag and there is a zig zag equal wave measurement near 1.1250. That is to saw C equals A (in wave 2) near 1.1250.

This is still a viable pattern so check out the behavior as we get into 1.12-1.14.

Thank you for the image tricky_nik; what is the context of the next degree higher you are considering?
