EUR/USD TECHNICAL ANALYSIS: IMPORTANT TEST UNDERWAY

The Euro, for the most part, has been moving sideways the past few weeks, and on that price action is looking like it is carving out a potential corrective pattern within the context of an ongoing downtrend. The low earlier in the week created the possibility of a higher low from the November low, but if resistance holds we could then see a lower-high form from the November 30 spike.

This higher-low lower-high sequence could form a wedge, and the wedge would be developing at an important point of resistance. The slope running down from the middle of June has solid connecting points. It was once a good source of support, but since it broke in mid-November it has become a source of resistance.

Triangles/wedges within the context of a strong trend can work as either continuation or reversal style patterns. This is why the most conservative approach to trading them requires being patient and waiting to see which side confirms.

A breakdown out of a developed wedge will have small support at 11227 followed by a more meaningful level in the November low set at 11186. A breakdown below 11186 would then clear a path towards major support at 11000.

Aside from 11000 being a psychological level, down there lies a trend-line from 2000. If one were to reconstruct the Euro prior to its existence with its constituents (namely the Deutschemark), you can extrapolate the trend-line back to the 1980s.

The trend suggests that we will see it sell off towards the 11000 low, but we can’t rule out a reversal higher that at least extends the current corrective period. A break out of the wedge would have EUR/USD back above slope resistance. A daily close above 11382 is seen as confirming this scenario. A rally towards 11500 and the trend-line from May could come into focus.

    • GX Uranium ETF Commodity Elliott Wave Analysis The GX URA ETF, also known as the Global X Uranium ETF, tracks the performance of companies in the uranium industry. This ETF offers investors a diversified portfolio that includes firms involved in uranium mining, exploration, and production worldwide. As nuclear power gains recognition as a cleaner energy alternative, the demand for uranium is expected to rise, making the GX URA ETF an attractive option for investors looking to benefit from the sector's growth. Price completed the bearish corrective cycle from May 2024 in August of the same year and the commodity has followed with rapid rallies to confirm it’s in another bullish phase. The commodity is now expected to extend above the May 2024 high to reach its highest price in over a decade. Long Term Analysis From the long-term view, GX URA appears to be in a bullish corrective cycle. Between February 2011 to March 2020, the ETF fell consistently making lower lows and lower highs reminiscent of an impulse wave structure. price has been correcting the long-term bearish run since the low of March 2020. From March 2020, the price completed an impulse wave sequence for wave A (circled) of the primary degree in November 2021. Afterward, it made a corrective pullback for wave B (circled) which ended in July 2022. From there an impulse wave was completed for wave (1) of C (circled) in May 2024 and a pullback followed for wave (2) as the daily chart shows. The current rally from the 5th of August 2024 is expected to be wave 1 of (3). Wave 1 is incomplete. Thus, there is a lot of room for buyers to keep pushing the long-term recovery. H4 Chart Analysis On the H4 chart, the price is currently in wave ((iii)) of 1 and could extend higher before pullback for ((iv)) where buyers will like to buy again. Traders can look for buying opportunities from the dip when the price completes wave ((iv)) or wave 2 in the near term. Technical Analyst : Sanmi Adeagbo Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!
