USD/JPY Bullish Breakout Above 110 Confirms Wave C Impulse

Dear traders,

the USD/JPY made a bullish breakout above the resistance trend line (dotted red), which is confirming the development of a wave C (pink) towards the Fibonacci targets.

4 hour chart

The USD/JPY is building a retracement after the breakout. A continuation above the minor resistance trend line (red) could confirm (green check) the wave 3 (purple) pattern and indicate a push higher towards the Fibonacci targets. A rebreak below the broken resistance (dotted red) invalidates (red x) the wave outlook.

1 hour chart

The USD/JPY bullish bounce at the Fibonacci retracement levels of wave 4 vs 3 and breakout above the resistance trend line (red) could confirm (green check) the wave 4 (green) retracement and wave 3 (purple) momentum. A break, however, below the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level invalidates (red x) this wave outlook.

Good trading,
Chris Svorcik
