Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for May 2, 2018

EUR/JPY has followed the expected path lower and has now tested the 131.47 target. This likely complete wave i of C. We now expect a corrective rally closer to the peak of sub-wave iv/ at 132.55 in wave ii, before turning lower again in wave iii towards at least 129.94.

Only a direct break below support at 131.47 will extend the decline in wave i closer to 130.92.
