03.01.201805:54 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Wave analysis of the USD / JPY currency pair. Weekly review

Analysis of wave counting:

At the end of last week, the pair USD / JPY still began to decline, losing about 90 pp and was able to work out the mark of 112.50 in the middle of the Friday session. Thus, it seems that the currency pair has attempted to confirm the transition to the stage of formation taking a rather complex form of the waves c, b, a, (C). If this is the case, then in the process of the development of the wave structure of this wave c, b, a, (C), the currency pair can continue the already identified downward movement in the direction of the levels of the 111th or even 110th figure.

Targets for the downward wave option:

111.01 - 50.0% of Fibonacci

110.14 - 61.8% of Fibonacci

Targets for the upward wave option:

115.43 - 61.8% of Fibonacci

116.32 - 76.4% of Fibonacci

General conclusions and trading recommendations:

The pair USD / JPY continues to build the upward wave (C). Thus, the increase in quotations may continue within the wave c, a, (C) with targets located near the estimated levels of 115.43 and 116.32, which corresponds to 61.8% and 76.4% of Fibonacci (these goals will be reviewed). The assumed wave b, a, (C) can resume its construction, complicating its internal wave structure.
