As the single currency has rebounded again after finding support at 0.8511, retaining our view that further consolidation above last week’s low at 0.8485 would be seen and another bounce to 0.8590-00 cannot be ruled out, however, renewed selling interest should emerge around 0.8620-25, bring another decline later, below said support at 0.8511 would bring test of 0.8485, break there would add credence to our view that top has been formed at 0.8788 and bearishness remains for this fall from there to bring retracement of early upmove, hence further weakness to 0.8470 would be seen but oversold condition should prevent sharp fall below 0.8450.
In view of this, we are looking to sell euro on recovery as 0.8620-25 should limit upside. Only above 0.8660-65 would defer and suggest low is possibly formed, risk rebound to 0.8680, then 0.8700 but price should falter below said resistance at 0.8735, bring further choppy trading later.
Our preferred count is that, after forming a major top at 0.9805 (wave V), (A)-(B)-(C) correction is unfolding with (A) leg ended at 0.8400 (A: 0.8637, B: 0.9491 and 5-waver C ended at 0.8400. Wave (B) has ended at 0.9413 and impulsive wave (C) has either ended at 0.8067 or may extend one more fall to 0.8000 before prospect of another rally. Current breach of indicated resistance at 0.9043 confirms our view that the (C) leg has ended and bring stronger rebound towards 0.9150/54, then towards 0.9240/50.
