USDJPY : Will Bearish Pattern Trigger More Sells?

By

USDJPY Technical Analysis January 8/2019

USDJPY remains bearish as long as the October 4/2018 high remains untouched. On the Daily chart there is a clear visible bearish pattern that can be seen. The blue bearish pattern triggers SELLS at the BC 0.50% Fib. retracement level. Price has still not reached this level so traders will need to be patient and see if USDJPY will touch this level and also watch to see if a downside reaction comes from this level. A possible price reaction  lower can happen from the BC 0.50%  Fib. retracement level or price can continue higher towards the  purple trend line level where more bears can possibly be waiting to push USDJPY lower. Both the blue BC 0.50% Fib. retracement and the purple (support/resistance) trend line level are significant because there has been previous support/resistance price action in the past at these levels.  Traders will need to wait and watch how price reacts at the possible reversal zone (blue box) and see if the market reacts lower to the bearish pattern or at the purple support/resistance level. If looking to trade USDJPY stops should be placed at the October 4/2018 blue point B high of the blue bearish pattern looking for another move lower to extend below  the January 3/2019 lows. Only time will tell what the pair will do but at least now you are aware of the possible area where USDJPY can reverse lower from.

Elliott Wave Analysis: Further Weakness Expected in USDJPY

By

Short term Elliott Wave view in USDJPY suggests that cycle from 11/12 peak (114.21) remains in progress as a double three Elliott Wave structure. Down from 114.21, Minute wave ((w)) ended at 112.27 and Minute wave ((x)) bounce ended at 114.03. Internal of Minute wave ((x)) unfolded as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure where Minutte wave (a) ended at 113.23, Minutte wave (b) ended at 112.63, and Minutte wave (c) of ((x)) ended at 114.03.

Minute wave ((y)) lower is currently in progress and the internal is unfolding as a double three Elliott Wave structure in lesser degree. Down from 114.03, Minutte wave (w) ended at 112.54 as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure, and Minutte wave (x) bounce is correcting cycle from 11/29 high before the decline resumes. We expect sellers to appear after Minutte wave (x) bounce is complete in 3, 7, or 11 swing as far as pivot at 114.03 high stays intact.
