Weekly Waves: EURUSD, Bitcoin and Gold
EUR/USD Bullish 400 Pips Price Rally
EUR/USD made a very strong bullish swing last week. Price made a bullish bounce at 0.9950 and gained 400 pips to reach 1.0350:
- The EUR/USD rally started after the price action completed a bearish ABC (yellow) pattern in wave B (green).
- EUR/USD tested and bounced at the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement support level.
- A larger ABC (yellow) zigzag appears to be unfolding within a complex WXY (pink) correction of wave 4 (gray).
- Within wave C (yellow), price action moves in a 5-wave pattern (green).
- We expect wave 3 (green) to finish soon, which will then be followed by wave 4 (green) and wave 5 (green).
- The main target is the -100% Fibonacci level near 1.0450 and 1.05.
- A bearish ABC (red arrow) should appear at this target zone.
Bitcoin Bearish Drop Bounces to $15k
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) broke below the support trend lines (dashed green) after moving sideways at the 78.6% Fibonacci support level for a couple of months:
- The BTC/USD bearish breakout below the 78.6% Fibonacci level confirms a continuation of bearish wave C (yellow).
- The target for the bearish wave C (yellow) is now at the 88.6% Fibonacci level of $11.2k. Other rounds levels like $15k and $12.5k will also act as support.
- Price action has already made a pullback at the $15k level, but a further decline is possible after the bullish correction is complete.
- A falling wedge pattern (red arrows) may develop as price action inches closer to the $11k mark.
- Price action can complete a wave C (yellow) of wave 2 (pink) or a wave C of wave W (orange) of a larger wave 2′ (pink).
- A bullish bounce (blue arrows) could appear at the 88.6% Fibonacci level.
Gold Bull flag patterns tip for more upside
Gold (XAU/USD) is moving higher within a bullish trend channel after making a double bottom chart on the 4-hour and daily charts:
- The gold chart made several bullish breakouts above the resistance trendline (dotted orange).
- Gold looks set to develop an impulsive price swing with a 5-wave pattern (green) in wave 3 (yellow).
- Price action is expected to continue higher (blue arrow) towards the -161.8% Fibonacci target.
- Once wave 3 (green) is completed, a bearish retracement (red arrows) within wave 4 (green) is expected.
- Wave 4 (green) remains valid as long as the price action remains in the bullish channel.
- A bullish bounce should take place within wave 5 (green) of wave 5 (yellow).
