Weekly forecast based on simplified wave analysis of EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/JPY, USD/CAD, NZD/USD, and Gold on April 15th

EUR/USD

Analysis:

The daily chart scale of the major pair of the euro since last July demonstrates a downward trend. By now, the quotes have reached the boundary of a strong potential reversal zone. The structure of the wave during the last three months is developing in the final part (C). Last week, the price broke through strong support, turning it into resistance.

Forecast:

During the upcoming week, price fluctuations of the euro are expected to transition predominantly into a sideways movement. In the first half, a gradual upward retracement towards the upper boundary of the price channel is more likely. The resumption of price decline can be expected closer to the weekend.

Support:

  • 1.0500/1.0450

USD/JPY

Analysis:

The trend direction of the main pair of the Japanese currency since last summer has been set by an ascending wave. The unfinished segment has been accounted for since March 8th, determining the direction of the pair's short-term fluctuations. Since the end of last month, the price has been forming a corrective figure in the form of a shifting plane, which still needs to be completed.

Forecast:

At the beginning of the upcoming week, a movement along a strong potential reversal zone of a large time frame towards the resistance zone is expected. Closer to the weekend, a change in direction and conditions for the resumption of downward price movement can be anticipated down to the area of calculated support.

Forecast:

At the beginning of the upcoming week, a short-term decrease is expected down to the support boundaries. Subsequently, a change in direction and the resumption of the upward movement vector can be expected. The pair's price increase can be expected up to the calculated resistance boundaries.
