FX.co ★ Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for October 16, 2020

EUR/JPY failed to break back above minor resistance at 123.99 to confirm the wave ii had completed. Instead, the correction in wave ii took a second deeper dip to a low of 123.02. Until we see a break above minor resistance at 123.49 and more importantly a break above resistance at 123.99 we cannot exclude another dip to test the 78.6% corrective target at 122.95. It is not necessary that we see another dip but at this point in time, it cannot be excluded. Only a break above minor resistance at 123.49 will indicate that wave ii has been completed and wave iii may develop a rally to 128.02

Trading recommendation:
