This week’s decline has retained our view that near term downside risk remains for the fall from 1.3794 top to bring retracement of recent rise, hence weakness to 1.3575-80 would be seen, however, reckon downside would be limited to support at 1.3530 and bring rebound later, above 1.3665-70 would bring rebound to 1.3700 but break of 1.3740-45 is needed to signal the pullback from recent high at 1.3794 has ended, bring test of 1.3770 resistance first, then towards 1.3794. Looking ahead, only a break above there would confirm recent upmove has resumed and extend further gain to 1.3840-50, then towards 1.3900.
In view of this, would not chase this rise here and would be prudent to buy again on pullback as 1.3530-35 should limit downside and bring another rise later. A firm break below 1.3530 would abort and suggest a temporary top is formed, bring retracement of recent upmove to 1.3500 and later towards 1.3450-60 but support at 1.3411 should remain intact, bring another upmove later.
To recap, wave B from 1.3066 is unfolding as an a-b-c and is sub-divided as a: 1.2192, b: 1.2716 and wave c is a 5-waver with i: 1.1983, ii: 1.2506, extended wave iii with minor iii at 1.0206, wave iv ended at 1.0781 and wave v as well as wave iii has ended at 0.9931, hence the subsequent choppy trading is the wave iv which is unfolding as (a)-(b)-(c) with (a) leg of iv ended at 1.0854, followed by (b) leg at 1.0108 and (c) leg as well as the wave iv ended at 1.0674. The wave v is sub-divided by minor wave (i): 0.9980, (ii): 1.0374, (iii): 0.9446, (iv): 0.9913 and (v) as well as v has possibly ended at 0.9407, therefore, consolidation with upside bias is seen for major correction, indicated target at 1.3700 and 1.4000 had been met and further gain to 1.4700 would be seen later.
