Exit the USDCAD short that we entered last Wednesday for a 300+ pip gain.  Although we expect price to come under .9755, the low this morning is close enough at .9759.  The new idea is to play a USD recovery against the Yen.  The USDJPY has held above 106, which is round number support and a reaction low from earlier in the month.





The entire rally from 104.97 to 108.59 could have completed a larger correction but we subjectively favor a larger rally because of various sentiment measures.  A large complex correction may be unfolding with the drop from 108.59 as wave X in a W-X-Y.   If this is the case, then price should put in a bottom soon and begin a rally that reaches roughly 110.  Be sure to visit the Elliott Wave forum for trading ideas and updates to this pattern.
