FX.co ★ Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for October 28, 2020

The correction in wave 2/ took us by surprise and broke below short-term key support at 123.38, which invalidated the possible triangle consolidation. It calls for more downside pressure towards 122.38 and maybe even closer to 120.39 before wave 2/ finally comes to an end. This is exactly what makes correction so annoying. They can shift shape from day to day and the options are endless.

Resistance is now seen at 123.19 which should be able to act as a cap for the decline to 122.38.

R3: 123.38

R2: 123.19

R1: 123.00

Pivot: 122.82

S1: 122.52

S2: 122.38

S3: 121.83

Trading recommendation: Our stop at 123.35 was hit for a 20 pips loss. We will sideline for now.
