Although the greenback retreated after meeting resistance at 1.3308, break of 1.3165 support (last week’s low) is needed to signal recent decline from 1.3794 top has resumed and extend weakness to 1.3100-10, however, loss of downward momentum should prevent sharp fall below previous support at 1.3078 and reckon 1.3040-50 would hold from here. If said support continues to hold, then further consolidation would take place and another bounce to 1.3308 and possibly 1.3330 cannot be ruled out but 1.3360-65 would limit upside and bring another decline later.
In view of this, would be prudent to sell again on subsequent recovery as 1.3350-60 should limit upside. Above previous support at 1.3387 (now resistance) would defer and suggest low is possibly formed, bring a stronger rebound to 1.3420-25 but break there is needed to provide confirmation.
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.
