NZDUSD plunging

Hi Traders,

The  New Zealand dollar (now at 0.8656) plunged as the head of the country's Reserve Bank warned that the central bank might have to intervene in foreign exchange markets to weaken the currency.

This is confirmed by the Reversal candlestick in the daily chart and the Elliott Wave count in the Monthly, Weekly, daily and 4-hour charts. 


TARGETS:

likely: 0.8510-0.8477
possibly: 0.8081-0.8051
maybe: 0.7812



ELLIOTT WAVES

Quite simple: all charts show the completion of 5 waves up



CANDLESTICKS

Note the reversal "engulfing pattern" in the daily chart


THE WAVE OSCILLATOR

The wave Oscillator displays the typical Reversal Cusps. BTW, unless the NZDUSD plunges vertically, the W.O. should deliver an entry point only after a rebound.

USDJPY defeating US reports

Hi Traders,

The USDJPY (now at 102.18) is heading towards the supports at 100.73-100.64 and 98.35-98.31 (see weekly chart) despite the best US unemployment report of the last 5 1/2 years.

TARGETS

likely: 100.73-100.64
possibly: 98.35-98.31
maybe: 96.86-96.77

ELLIOTT WAVES

The weekly chart shows that wave 4 (in black, font 9) is not complete. After waves 1&2 (in green) we now started wave 3 to the theoretical target at  98.35-98.31, ie. the target within wave 4 of a smaller degree. Then the uptrend might resume.
