Euro’s retreat after marginal rise to 0.8866 earlier this week suggests consolidation below this level would be seen and pullback to 0.8745-50 cannot be ruled out, however, reckon 0.8690-00 would attract renewed buying interest and bring another rise later, above said resistance would extend recent erratic upmove from 0.8304 low to 0.8880, then 0.8900, having said that, as broad outlook remains consolidative, reckon current c leg of larger degree wave b should be limited to 0.8950 and price should falter well below 0.9000, bring retreat later this week.
In view of this, we are looking to buy euro on subsequent pullback but one should exit on such rise. Below 0.8680 would defer and risk test of 0.8650-55 support but break there is needed to signal top is formed instead, bring further fall to 0.8620, then 0.8600 which is likely to hold from here.
Our preferred count is that, after forming a major top at 0.9805 (wave V), (A)-(B)-(C) correction is unfolding with (A) leg ended at 0.8400 (A: 0.8637, B: 0.9491 and 5-waver C ended at 0.8400. Wave (B) has ended at 0.9413 and impulsive wave (C) has either ended at 0.8067 or may extend one more fall to 0.8000 before prospect of another rally. Current breach of indicated resistance at 0.9043 confirms our view that the (C) leg has ended and bring stronger rebound towards 0.9150/54, then towards 0.9240/50.
