Intraday Analysis - USD/JPY short term Gartley Pattern
Technical analysis can be applied throughout all time periods. Typically, the posts you see on Facebook focus primarily on Swing or Trend trading. The time frames that James and I use range from Daily charts to 1 hour charts. For day trading setups, sometimes I will provide analysis on 15 minute charts.
Today's 15 minute chart identifies a potential bullish Gartley pattern on the USD/JPY. If price action can fall to the 86.58 area, traders could see a brief bullish rally to the 87.08 level. It should be noted that if we do not see weakness in the USD/JPY by the end of the night, this pattern will be invalid. Also if triggered, a breach of the 86.32 could negate this pattern and drive further weakness for the dollar. The following outline the legs of the pattern:
X to A confirms point B with a 61.8% retracement
A to B confirms point C with a 61.8% retracement
B to C targets point D with a 141.8% expansion level
X to A targets point D with a 78.6% retracement
