The recovery seems too deep for the downside to resume and thus the upside does seem to have the edge. This will require the 106.65-70 area to support while a break above 107.15-20 will assist higher toward s107.46 at least. Take care here as if this peaks we should continue to see sideways consolidation. Only above 107.46 would see a fuller test of the 107.81-88 highs once again but should hold on first test. </td></tr><tr><td>MT Bullish:</td><td><span style="FONT-SIZE: 8pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: JA; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">Recent trading has been messy but has remained above the 104.95 low as suggested and thus I remain cautiously bullish for 107.88, 108.60-96 and 109.74 at the very least. (<span style="FONT-SIZE: 8pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: JA; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">4th February)</td></tr><tr><td>Daily Bearish:</td><td><span style="FONT-SIZE: 8pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: JA; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">Losses fell between two stools but the recovery from 106.33 does appear quite deep for a bearish scenario. Thus be cautious on the downside and wait for a break below 106.65. If this occurs the downside will come under pressure again for a break of yesterday’s 106.33 low and for follow-through to 105.88 at least. This may hold. Only below extends to 105.37-69 again. </td></tr><tr><td>MT Bearish:</td><td><span style="FONT-SIZE: 8pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: JA; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">We are seeing the expected correction from the 104.95 target and this should last for a while. Selling opportunities should be considered around 109.80-110.11. Below 104.95 sees losses to 103.44.

This was broken but the recovery from 106.33 does look too deep for a Wave c lower in a flat correction. This means we are setting up for a stronger move – we just have to decide the direction. For the moment I have labeled yesterday’s low as Wave x. This should imply gains back to the 107.81-88 area in a new Wave a to be followed by a Wave b before we finally see breach of that resistance. Overall targets in Wave B are at 109.80 (50%) and 110.35 (61.8%.)<span style="FONT-SIZE: 8pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: JA; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">If I am wrong then we could be seeing a deeper decline. This would be confirmed on a move below 106.33 and then 105.37-69.<span style="FONT-SIZE: 8pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: JA; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">Ian Copsey 9 application/xml false commentary currencies Dollar elliott wave forecasts Forex FX fx-strategy Japanese JPY resistance support technical analysis US USD Yen FX-Strategy Pro Commentary Unique and comprehensive analysis to guide you through the trading day http://www.gftforex.com/services/procommentary?aid=446 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; hc; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; MS-RTC LM 8) 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 ICopsey 202.216.243.97 false true false false true 119238 blog blogsite/GFTForex/web
