12.10.201607:54 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for October 12 - 2016

Wave summary:

The correction from 116.28 is deeper than expected and is not really consistent with the previous count, so we have adopted a new and even more bullish count. This scenario sees a series of waves 1 and 2 unfolding. If this count proves to be correct, then a strong upside acceleration will be seen for a break above 114.88, then above 115.79, and finally towards 117.38.

In the short term, we need wait until the red wave ii moves a little lower to 113.76 before completing and setting the stage for red wave iii higher towards 117.38.

Only an unexpected break below 112.56 will invalidate this count and indicate that the long term corrective low has not been found yet and a decline below 109.48 still should be expected.

Trading recommendation:

We will buy EUR at 113.85 or upon a break above 114.55 with stop placed at 112.50.
