[B]Bias:[/B]I cautiously favor the upside but we need a break of 0.8858 to confirm strength to 0.8912 at least
[B]Daily Bullish:[/B]The correction lower seemed to be truncated yesterday and we have seen a 5 point break of the old high. Hourly momentum is a little weak but 4-hour seems a bit stronger. Thus I’ll cautiously favor continued gains but we’ll need to see the 0.8820 area to hold to see this occur directly. Breach of 0.8820 would imply a retest at 0.8770 before higher. A break then above 0.8853-58 should maintain the upward direction for 0.8873 and probably 0.8912. Take care as there could be a pullback. Next resistance = 0.8983.[B]MT Bullish:[/B]Higher support held and we have seen the move back to the 0.8853 high. It should move further and while 0.8645-67 continues to hold the next target should be 0.8983 minimum & possibly as high as 0.9075-98. ([B]9th January[/B])[B]Daily Bearish:[/B]A break of 0.8853 was seen but was hardly successful. On the whole I remain bullish but we should be aware of the risk of a further correction lower. First support is at 0.8820 and if this breaks then we could see a dip down to 0.8770. I think this will hold if seen. Only breach would extend the decline down to 0.8700 and possibly 0.8654-82. [B]MT Bearish:[/B]The upside still looks more likely and therefore only a break below 0.8645 would undermine the bullish structure and cause a retest of the 0.8552 low. ([B]9th January[/B])
[B]ELLIOTT WAVE COMMENTS[/B]
[B]8th January[/B]
It is possible that we have seen Wave –b- end at 0.8682- if so a move above the 0.8853 high would provide a wave equality target at 0.8977-83 being a 50% retracement in Wave B.
Until then we should keep in mind the 61.8% retracement in Wave –b- at 0.8667.
[B]9th January[/B]
The 0.8682 low does indeed look like Wave –b- with the only possible risk of a flat correction that would force a second decline to the 0.8667-82 area. More likely we are seeing a move higher in Wave –c- that sees wave equality at 0.8983 (which is a 50% retracement in Wave B) and at most the 0.9075-98 area being a 61.8% retracement in Wave B and a 138.2% projection in Wave –c-.
