FX.co ★ Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for August 17, 2018

We continue to look for wave c/ of iv/ moving closer to resistance near 127.94 before the final dip to just below 124.89 to complete the complex correction in wave ii, for a new impulsive rally to above 131.99.

That said, we also need to stress the possibility of wave v/ and ii having completed with the test of 124.89 and wave iii already developing. A break above resistance at 128.45 will confirm this count and instantly make this count the top count if seen.
