EUR/JPY correction is due; 120.00 seen as resistance for now

Technical outlook and chart setups:

As depicted here, the single currency pair produced an Engulfing Bearish ahead of the 120.00/10 region. At the moment, prices seem to be retracing the fall and should face resistance around the 119.90 region. Looking into the risk/reward ratio, it is recommended to initiate short positions at current levels, 119.90/92. The single currency pair is expected to correct in 3 waves towards the 118.20/30 levels at least. A higher Fibonacci resistance is at 121.00, while support is at 118.80 and then 117.50/60 respectively. Looking lower for now.

Trading recommendations:

Short now (119.90/92), stop is at 120.45. Target is at 118.20.

EUR/JPY intraday technical analysis

The spot rate is currently testing the upper limit of its medium-term bullish channel at 120.80 suggesting a decline. However, a break of these levels will initiate a more violent bullish channel.

Technical indicators do not provide clear signals, but until the resistance is not broken the assumption of a decline is most likely. Bollinger bands are much discarded as a result of a strong increase these days. Stabilization is expected in the short term.

The spot rate is currently testing the upper limit of its channel, we suggest 2 scenarios. The first one is the hypothesis of a decline where we recommend a sell on the level of 120.80 with the 1st objective at 120.20 and then at 120.00. A breakthrough of 121.00 will invalidate this scenario. The second scenario is a break of its resistance where we advise a “buy stop” which means to buy the spot rate as soon as it is broken through its resistance of 120.80 with the 1st objective at 121.40 and then at 121.60. A breakthrough of 120.60 will invalidate this scenario.

EUR/JPY intraday technical analysis

The spot rate approaches the intermediate support of its medium-term bearish channel at 118.50 suggesting a rebound. However, a break of these levels will free a large potential and reach the lower limit of its channel at 117.10.

Technical indicators do not provide clear signals, but until the support is not broken the assumption of a rebound is most likely. Bollinger bands have greatly tightened in recent days showing a decline in volatility and the imminence of a violent movement.

The spot rate is currently testing the intermediate support of its channel, we suggest 2 scenarios. The first one is the hypothesis of a rebound where we recommend a buy on the level of 118.50 with the 1st objective at 119.10 and then at 119.30. A breakthrough of 118.30 will invalidate this scenario. The second scenario is a break of its support where we advise a “sell stop” which means to sell the spot rate as soon as it is broken through its support of 118.50 with the 1st objective at 117.90 and then at 117.70. A breakthrough of 118.70 will invalidate this scenario.

EUR/JPY Elliott Wave analysis for January 22, 2013

Today's support and resistance levels:

S1: 119.63 R1: 120.24

S2: 119.22 R2: 120.71

S3: 118.81 R3: 121.28

Technical overview:

The wave IV correction from 120.71 should be over, and we are now looking for a rally past minor resistance at 120.24 to confirm that assumption for the last rally higher towards 120.71 and the ideal target near 121.28. That said, we should be aware, that the hole impulsive rally from 100.32 is coming to an end and a much bigger correction is looming. The coming wave 4 correction should at least give us a correction down to 113.54, which marks the bottom of the wave IV of a lessor degree. This is a very common target, and it will at the same time be very close to the 38.2% Fibonacci target. However, for now we should keep focus towards the upside for one last rally higher.

Trading recommendation:

We are long EUR from 119.41 with a stop at 118.15. Upon a break above 120.24 we will lift our stop higher to 118.75. We will take profit and reverse our long position to a short EUR position at 121.00.
