Good evening everyone, and a happy St Patricks day to you all!
EURUSD did drop today but nothing significant so far.
I want to see a decline below the support level of wave 3 pink at 1.0715 before calling the high in place.
It is worth noting on the 4hr chart, the impulsive and rapid nature of the declines VS the overlapping, labored and corrective nature of the rallies.
This is the essence of the difference between a trend move and a corrective move. If you want to know more, check out my mini course at - elliott-wave-theory-course/
The resistance levels that lie above at 1.0828 and 1.0872 should repel the price downward next week.
the next best alternative wave count is still very bearish but will allow for a further extension of this countertrend rally.
I will deal with that If needs must!
For next week, I will again be watching for a bearish signal off the highs.

Wave 2 red, downtrend resumed.

My Bias:Â short below parity.
Wave Structure:Â continuing impulsive structure to the downside in wave (5)
Long term wave count:Â decline in wave (5) blue, below parity
Important risk events:Â GBP: N/A. USD: FOMC Member Evans Speaks, President Trump Speaks.
This weeks action has not brought any clarity to the debate over which is the correct interpretation of the short term action.
The rise off the recent low is currently labelled as wave 'c' of 'ii'.
This wave count calls for an acceleration to the downside soon.
The alternate wave count, a rally in wave 'E', allows for a further rise into 1.2600 before finally declining back into trend.
Next weeks action should bring clarity to this indecision, as the wave structure is at a pivotal point.
That being the 61.8% retracement level of wave 'i' pink.
An impulsive turn down from here tips the balance in favour of the current wave count.
Whereas a corrective decline from here favours the alternate wave count.

My Bias:Â LONG
Wave Structure:Â rally in wave [C]
Long term wave count:Â wave [C] is underway, upside to above 136.00
Important risk events:Â JPY: N/A. USD: FOMC Member Evans Speaks, President Trump Speaks.
Wave 'c' pink has now reached support at 112.60, a level which I had spoke about early this week.
The decline in wave 'c' is deep but, wave 'c' now has a complete five wave structure internally,
The expanded flat wave 'ii' is now completed and must now turn up impulsively, and create a higher low off current lows as the price turns bulish again.
the lower invalidation line at 111.57 is staring us in the face, and that is why price must turn now.
I have shown te 1 hr chart this evening, there is a clear bullish divergence between momentum and price now.
A break of 113.75 to the upside would add weight to the bullish outlook.

Topping in wave (5)

My Bias:Â market top is in.
Wave Structure:Â Impulsive 5 wave structure, possibly topping in an all time high.
Long term wave count:Â Topped in wave (5)

The rise off yesterdays lows looks corrective so far.
I have labelled the structure as a developing waves 1,2 in red.
this suggests the market could drop in wave 3 red early next week.
the evidence is starting to pile up that the market has now topped in a final all time high.
If that is the case, I am not looking forward to the catastrophe which awaits us as this bear market unfolds.
There is a good case that a head and shoulders pattern is in place around that all time high.
This is another hint that a trend change is at hand.
A break of support at the recent wave 'i' low of 20777 will be another nail in the coffin.
That is the pivotal level for next week.

GOLD remains in a holding pattern in a possible wave '4' pink.
The lows of 1224 will likely be retested in a possible flat or developing triangle wave '4'.
A corrective decline off an impulsive rally is just the sort of signal I have been waiting for in GOLD.
The over-bearish sentiment of late has put this market in a prime position to rally strongly for the foreseeable future.
For next week I want to see 1224 hold the price and more impulsive action follow off that level.
