not very typical for me, but i added half a unit here. cant see that falling through really out of this pattern.

Because once upon a time the two places were connected by a huge undersea cable.. like a telephone line.

USD/CHF Hourly Chart Flag formation!

I believe Elliott Wavers would call the pole a wave 3 and the actual flag a wave 4, getting ready for the lauch to wave 5 which is minimally the measurement of the length of the pole from the point at which is breaks out.

That would put it up to 1.08 to 1.0850ish easily.

See what you guys think.

CHF/JPY

The CHF/JPY is showing the same triangle as the EUR/JPY, but is offering a better trade setup to the short side in wave (c) of (E). There is also a head and shoulders pattern that is about to be broken to the downside (blue lines on chart). I'm short now looking for a test of 86.00.

Yen

The widest part of the triangle is 1,666 points wide, so at the conclusion of wave (E), I'll be looking for a rally of about the same length. That means a target area up around 147.50.
Hey Justy,

Would you attribute this prospective rally to the Yen weakening against the dollar to a greater degree than the Euro/Pound/Swissy(considering the dollar is in a position to strengthen against all currencies)? And, does the Yen weakening bolster the case for a continuation of the rally in equities? The reason I ask is, it would then seem that the correlation between strong dollar/weak equities would become disconnected.

I don't pay attention to any correlation between USD and equities, so I'm not sure what these developing trends mean in the big picture. I can say though, that nothing is ever correlated to an exact +1 (or -1 for inverse correlations), so even though there may typically be a strong inverse correlation between the USD and equities, that relationship won't always hold. Sometimes the two markets will track together and someties they won't. This might be one of those times where they don't.

My view on equities is bearish. I think that stocks are in the latter stages of the corrective rally that began back in March and should be topping out fairly soon.

apipintime, I do watch how the currencies respond when stocks rise/fall. The dollar does benefit when stocks fall generally and it falls when stocks and commodities rise.

However, generally the yen prospers even more. So selling the carry trades (especially the yen crosses) as stocks tank and the yen strengthens may be your best bet.

See what you think.

Sean;

I agree with your count. But, I think the entire pattern from the low is a flat.

Anyway, Long from 1.0596.

Good Luck.

Massive breakout in gold coming soon!

Trading Economic News

It will likely move the U.S. dollar and Aussie dollar when it does breakout. So worth noting and watching.

The triangle's low volatility is just about to birth high volatility soon.

Hey Sean,

I have been observing the correlation btwn equities/oil and the dollar for some time now, which was the basis for my question regarding Justy's EUR/JPY count( a page or so back ). Based on that particular count and the current relationship between equities and the dollar, one would expect more weakness in the dollar unless the Yen was to weaken significantly more than the other majors.
