Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY for January 4, 2019
2019-01-04
analytics5c2ef370290f0.png
There was no time for a correction towards 120.05. EUR/JPY just went straight higher towards minor resistance at 123.54 and important resistance seen at 125.80. A break above 123.54 will be the first good indication that a long-term low has been seen, while a break above the later, will confirm a long-term bottom has been seen and wave [C] to above 170.00 is developing.
Short-term support is now seen at 122.93 and then near 122.35.
R3: 124.38
R2: 123.86
R1: 123.54
Pivot: 122.93
S1: 122.54
S2: 122.35
S3: 121.92
Trading recommendation:
Our stop+revers at 122.50 was hit, which means we book a 372 pips profit and is now long EUR from 122.50. We have placed our stop at break-even at 122.50.

Technical analysis for EUR/USD for January 4, 2019
2019-01-04
EUR/USD remains trapped inside the trading range of 1.1475 and 1.1290. No real progress has been made the last couple of months. I believe there are more chances of an upward break out and a move towards 1.17 at least if not higher.
analytics5c2f0df7efd13.png
Red dots - major strength resistance
Blue dots - medium strength support
EUR/USD has been giving false signals with slight higher highs or lower lows for the last few weeks hitting stops and doing everything it can to throw out most short-term traders. In reality has not moved at all as can be seen in the chart above. A clear break and close above 1.1475 would open the way for 1.17. A clear break down below 1.1290 would open the way for 1.11. The bullish divergence in the RSI in the Daily chart makes me favor the bullish scenario.
Technical analysis for Gold for January 4, 2019
2019-01-04
Gold price remains in a bullish trend. Gold price has reached very close to our last target of $1,300 and I prefer to exit longs and take profits at current levels. Gold price is at overbought levels. There are important short-term indicators showing a pull back will come soon.
analytics5c2f0fcc2108c.png
Black lines - resistance trend lines
Green line - major trend line support
Gold price has respected the long-term support green trend line. The weekly RSI is now challenging important resistance trend line, while the next major trend line resistance in Gold is at $1,360. Currently trading just below $1,300, the short-term indicators point to a pull back but not lower than $1,240. Gold price should pull back towards $1,270-80 before continuing higher.
