FX.co ★ Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for June 6, 2018

EUR/JPY has extended its wave wave v/ of i, which means wave v/ now is equal in distance to the length of wave i/ through wave iii/ added to the low of wave iv/. Once this extension completes near 129.04, we should see a strong zig-zag decline to the low of wave iv/ of one lessor degree at 126.31. This is almost the 61.8% corrective target of wave i, which comes in at 126.26.

Short-term a break below minor support at 128.44 will be the first strong indication that wave i is complete, while a break below support at 128.10 will confirm and call for wave ii closer to the 126.26 - 126.31 area.
