On Tuesday, having hit the low of 1.2585 the EUR_USD price started to reverse in favor of the euro. Thus, the falling of the rates which has been developing after August 6 let the euro to decrease to the correctional level of 61.8%, calculated as to the length of the uprising 3rd wave (or C). In this respect, it can be assumed that the market is retaining the growth potential for the pair and if it is renewed, it is able to form a 5-wave structure in the limits of the whole ascending trend, which has been forming since early June. Moreover, the correlation between the waves a and c of the current declining part, which also equals to 61,8% allows to consider the option of the uprising movement restart versus the US dollar. However, on the other hand, if the decline continues, the price can easily reach the marks around the 22nd figure.

On Friday, the USD_JPY price was forming the expected upside correction versus the decreasing part of the trend, taking start on July 28. Besides, considering the ratio of this correction waves it can be assumed that the rates will grow to the direction of the level 86,40. However, taking into account the indicators’ overbought position it should not be excluded that the declining trend versus the US dollar can renew. Anyway, a very difficult wave image of the expected 5th wave suggests consideration of such future for the currency pair.

- 129.11 = contracted objective point (COP)
- 128.04-127.98 = confluence area of COP and objective point (OP)
- 126.15 = expanded objective point (XOP)
- 124.61 = OP (off daily waves AB - light green)

The pair has retraced from .50 retracement point of 137.75-128.77 (see the chart).

In case the price turns up for a correction the targets of the upside movement will be Fibonacci retracements of the downwave starting from 133.59.

Wave Analysis of the EUR/USD pair for August 31, 2010 2010-08-31






The renewed yesterday decrease of EUR_USD seems to have fixed the ending of the 4th wave in the 3rd (or C). If it proves right, the continuation of the euro rates falling and the formation of the 5th wave in the 3rd (or C) can be awaited. Besides, taking into consideration the inner dimension of this expected 3rd (or C), the first possible target for it can be 1.2545-1.2540, which moreover, corresponds to 61.8% of the current correction. At the same time, any break through the minimum since August 24 opens the way for the pair to the area of 1.2300, where the equality of the expected A and C waves is located.
