Usikpa,

1.29 is my next main target. said it on here loud and clear. And if you subscribe to the Premium service, you would see where i have my minor and more important MAJOR resistance for that corrective move.

Dave,

When i refer to corrective waves, i do not adhere to EW theory. But thanks for that. Actually, why not elaborate?

Saka,

We were short USDJPY throughout May/June before calling that rebound towards 78-79, now I am neutral (no real strong opinion on it). But if i had to chose, I have BEARISH bias on USDJPY.

One cannot say whether corrective moves will be multipe and shallow except in wave 3's playing in any 5 wave sequence on your timeframe in play. Also the the shorter term vicissitudes of economic stats will synchronise.

Ashraf,

In your view, will the corrective moves be multiple and shallow, or 1.29 is the level for a major correction to start? Thanks

Djellal,

Outright QE3 means expanding the balance sheet which currently faces opposition w/in the Fed as well as POLITICAL opposition. They will Re-try FX swaps & USD injections then perhaps cutting rates on Onite reserves.

I see 10% chance of QE3 this year. Lots of opposition to it

And the challenge is to steer through the corrective moves in the midst of the main downcycle.

This is very insightful analysis on an important cycle, Ashraf. Thank you for your generosity in sharing it with us! This gives us traders a nice framework of reference for the next few months, some important things to keep in mind with all the noisy headlines out there.
