EUR/USD Elliott Wave
During the last week the EUR/USD pair was trading downward developing impulsive 3 wave (coloured blue). During the Friday's European session we could observe ascending move toward the 1.2710 level (100EMA resistance). Therefore during the New York session we could observe continuation of the bullish mood and price reached new daily high at 1.2793 level.Today during the Asian session we could observe ascending move toward the 1.2812 level.The EUR/USD did not manage to hold this level and we could observe bearish mood in early European session. We expect to see price at 1.2825 today. Presently we can observe the end of the 4 wave so we need to be prepared for 5 wave (coloured blue). In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that the wave 5 retraces 100% of the wave 1, we can define the potential targets with measuring 1 wave with Take Profit 1 at 1.2689 (78.6% of wave 1) and Take Profit 2 at 1.2649 (100% of wave 1). The resistance level at 1.2870 can be used as Stop Loss.

Trading Forecast
Proceeding from Elliott Wave Rules this week the trend is expected to begin the downward movement. That is why Short positions at level 1.2845 with Stop Loss at 1.2870, Take Profit 1 at 1.2689 and Take Profit 2 at 1.2649 are recommended
