Above 1.4448 resistance would extend the final leg of the wave v towards 1.4605 (50% projection of wave i-iii measuring from end of wave iv at 1.3878) but upside should be limited to 1.4720 and bring retreat in wave D.

USD/JPY Elliott Wave Analysis As the greenback has fallen after brief bounce to 95.07, suggesting a test of 93.09 support cannot be ruled out, however, as long as 91.73 support holds, prospect of another rally remains but break of 95.07 is needed to signal the fall from 97.79 has possibly ended and bring further rise to 96.80.

USD/CAD's rise from 1.0790 extends further in early US session and the break of 1.1019 resistance indicates that rise from 1.0718 has resumed. The development adds more favor to the case that price actions from 1.1074 to 1.0718 are merely consolidation to rally from 1.0631 only. That is, such rise is still in progress. Break of 1.1230 resistance will confirm this case and all affirm the case that USD/CAD has bottomed out too. On the downside, below 1.0970 minor support will turn intraday outlook neutral first. But further rise will now be in favor as long as 1.0790 support holds. Read more...
