Risk on EURUSD longs can be moved to 1.5611 (for short term traders) and 1.9648 on GBPUSD. The AUDUSD has rallied as expected and risk there can be moved to .9475 (roughly breakeven).
We’ve altered the count slightly but the implications are the same. We are treating the consolidation from 1.6018 as a triangle (wave E completed at 1.5468 on 6/23). Treating this count as preferred clears up recent price action. The rally from 1.5468 is a clean ‘5 up’ and the drop from 1.5909 ended near the 61.8% of 1.5468-1.5909 (wave 2 traveling 61.8% of wave 1 is common). Our position is that wave 3 is headed higher towards 1.6324 (161.8% extension of 1.5469-1.5909/1.5611) while 1.5611 remains intact.

There are 3 waves up from 95.72 so a top may be in place at 108.57. Wave C (what we are treating as wave C at least) from 102.58 is 61.8% of wave A (95.72-105.70). The next level of potential resistance is the 100% extension at 112.62. A cautious bearish bias is warranted against that level. Also, the 200 day SMA is acting as resistance and has since early June.

A C wave (of either a triangle or flat) is underway (although there is the slight possibility that wave C of the triangle is complete at 2.0006…see red labels). If a triangle, wave C likely continues until 2.02 (March 27 top). If a flat, wave C will continue through 2.04. If wave C of the triangle is complete at 2.0006, then the drop from there is wave D and could come under 1.9648. Longer term traders should hold GBPUSD as long as price is above 1.9409 since wave E would lead to a rally anyway.

We maintain a bearish USDCHF bias due to the structure of the advance from .9647, which is in 3 waves and therefore corrective. 3 wave movements are eventually completely retraced. A bearish bias is warranted against 1.0540. 1.0375 is the 61.8% of 1.0540-1.0110 and could provide resistance near term.
Bottom line is that we remain bullish as long as price is above 1.0047. With price above there, we maintain that a triangle is complete. Some doubt has entered out mind regarding this count simply because the USDCAD has not yet accelerated higher in a 3rd wave.

Recent commentary has mentioned that “an A-B-C correction may be complete at .7662 but our preferred count is for a rally to end closer to the 50% of .7921-.7445 at .7683 and perhaps even the 61.8%-78.6% at .7740-.7920. A rally to there would fill the 6/4 gap.” A C wave is likely underway now from .7483. A bullish bias is warranted against .7445.
STRATEGY: Bullish, against .7445, target .7720
