Simplified wave analysis and forecast for EUR/USD and GBP/JPY on September 18

EUR/USD

Analysis:

A corrective wave has been forming in the upward wave of the European major since the end of July. It has the form of a shifting plane. Its wave analysis shows the completeness of the structure. Yesterday's upward price segment has a reversal potential. This may be the beginning of a new wave of the main trend of the pair.

Forecast:

Today, in the first half of the day, a flat movement is possible with a downward vector. The lower limit of the price range is shown by the calculated support. By the end of the day, you can expect a reversal and a sharp activation, with a repeated attempt to break through the resistance zone.

Potential reversal zones

Resistance:

- 1.1860/1.1890

Support:

- 1.1800/1.1770

Until the upcoming pullback is completed, trading the euro in the market is risky. After clear signals of exchange rate change appear in the area of the support zone, it is recommended to buy the pair.

GBP/JPY

Analysis:

As part of the bullish wave that has been dominant since March, the corrective wave from July 31 ends. In recent weeks, it has turned from shifting to a stretched plane, reaching a strong zone of a potential reversal.
