would love that to be a w3 drop, but i have another view
on the bigger picture
While I agree with your view and count, my chart is weekly. This position was debated here some time ago but, I keep coming back to it as the logical choice. That being said, a correction would give a better opportunity to enter for a long term hold or iii of 3 of 1 of 3 down.
Has anyone got a 4Hours or Daily count on the USD/JPY?
Thanks in advance...
It is possible that the larger 1-2 on my chart is a 3-4 which would make for an 83-83.5 target. I am looking for a wave iii at 82.9 on the current move.
I think 3-4 is more likely. Oh, and by the way that last move as wave 5 should complete wave c of bigger IV. Then down she goes.....
My current count of the 1-2 assumes a truncated fifth where you have labeled b and if it is a 3-4 and currently in a fifth then a 1 is where you have labeled a and a 2 would be where you have labeled b. I feel that usd/jpy has seen its low, but of course only time will tell.

Thanks... I was aiming for higher than 85 though
please do not place links to other sites in your signature as this violates forum rules. Thanks

I agree that it has found its low. It reached a 16.5 year and 33-year cycle low at 75.57 which was a 38.2% projection in Wave (v).
Oops... just seen the label at the 75.257 low - another Wave (b) when it should be Wave (c)... of Wave (v)...
The Wave iv of Wave (c) of Wave (v) was at 85.52 so that should be the first stop. The Wave (b) of Wave (v) was at 114.65 which is where it should normally move to but it was so brief that Neely's 124 target is possible.
I am counting the end as a diagonal wave 5. Diagonals are completely retraced. At the very least you should expect a retrace near the beginning of wave 2. If this is indeed a diagonal, price should retrace fairly quickly to the 95 to 101 area before a correction then as the diagonal is an ending and price should go higher.
I am adding that Ian's count of an A-B-C is probably the correct count as wave C is, according to my measurement is 105% of A. As this is a common ratio, I agree with him that price is not likely to make a new low. Wave C is also in this case 105% of the width of the triangle when measured from the end of wave E.
Here is what I think is going on in the DJFXCM dollar index. Slightly higher in wave v of 1 then wave2 either sideways or slightly down to retest the triangle break.
Looks like reversal is getting underway. Look for about 600p in a wave 5.
Good Luck.

how about 600p up later?
bull flag or bear u decide
cheers.
ps: my count is AB, not 12, label wrongly
seems like move up now, not 600p down in a wave 5
now possible that phase 3 mode in force else another 3 wave drop to complete wave e

us dollar show a different perspective and i agree dollar index is still bearish but it can still go up impulsively

When I post a count it is what I think at the time. The count I posted yesterday is bullish US dollar based on DJFXCM $ index. I do think the top is likely in and a sideways to down consolidation move will occur over this week and possibly next.
