POTENTIAL LONGS ON GBP/JPYGBP/JPY 1D - Now price has traded into a large area of Demand I am expecting a reversal in this market, as we know this market is predominantly bullish anyway with the JPY being quite a weak currency compared to the GBP.
I want to see price break structure to the upside more fractally, giving us the confluence to suggest that enough Demand has been introduced to see price trade higher, once we have that we can begin looking for longs.
Following the prevailing trend we have majority traders on our back to help drive price higher. A break will give us the confluence needed so once we have that we just need to wait for price to pullback.
Price pulling back gives us the means to get involved in this market with a refined entry. allowing us to have greater risk to reward returns on our trades.
Elliott Wave Indicates Bearish Sequence for GBPJPYThe Elliott Wave perspective indicates that GBPJPY has entered a bearish sequence from its October 30, 2024 high. It signals further downside potential. From that peak, wave (W) concluded at 187.05, followed by a wave (X) rally that terminated at 195.94, as illustrated in the accompanying 1-hour chart. Currently, wave (Y) is unfolding lower, exhibiting an internal zigzag structure.
Breaking it down from the wave (X) high, wave ((i)) declined to 192.7. The subsequent wave ((ii)) rally peaked at 195.77. The pair then resumed its descent in wave ((iii)), reaching 187.51, before a wave ((iv)) bounce concluded at 190.29. The final leg, wave ((v)), completed at 186.05, marking the end of wave A in a higher degree. From there, wave B unfolded as a zigzag corrective pattern: wave ((a)) rose to 188.83, and wave ((b)) pulled back to 187.09. Wave ((c)) advanced to 190.08, completing wave B. The pair has since resumed its decline in wave C.
In the near term, as long as the pivotal high at 195.94 remains intact, any rallies are expected to falter in a 3, 7, or 11 swing structure, reinforcing the outlook for further downside. Traders monitoring this setup should anticipate limited upside and watch for confirmation of this bearish continuation.
