Weekly Forecast Based on Simplified Wave Analysis for EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/JPY, USD/CAD, NZD/USD, and Gold – February 17th

EUR/USD

Analysis:The downtrend that began in late summer last year is nearing completion. Since February 3, a counter-trend bullish wave has been forming, signaling a potential reversal. Currently, the price is near the lower boundary of a strong potential reversal zone.

Forecast:At the start of the week, the euro is likely to maintain its bullish momentum, potentially testing the resistance zone and briefly exceeding its upper boundary. However, a trend reversal and renewed decline toward support levels are expected in the second half of the week.

Potential Reversal Zones:

  • Resistance: 1.0530 – 1.1580
  • Support: 1.0380 – 1.0330

Recommendations:

  • Buying: No safe entry conditions for long positions.
  • Selling: If confirmed reversal signals appear near resistance, selling could be profitable, with downward potential limited by support.

USD/JPY

Analysis:Since late last year, the pair has been following a downward wave structure. Over the past two weeks, prices have been correcting, forming a corrective flat pattern, which is nearing completion. The estimated support level is at the upper boundary of a major potential reversal zone on a higher timeframe.

Forecast:In the coming days, sideways movement and mild upward price action are expected. Near the resistance area, the pair may enter a consolidation phase, forming a reversal. By the weekend, a decline toward support levels is likely.

Potential Reversal Zones:

  • Resistance: 154.30 – 154.80
  • Support: 150.00 – 149.50

Recommendations:

  • Buying: High-risk trades, not recommended.
  • Selling: Consider short positions near the resistance area if reversal signals confirm a trend change.

GBP/JPY

Analysis:The current downward wave structure of the GBP/JPY pair has been developing since December. Over the past month, an ongoing complex correction has formed. Prices are now approaching the lower boundary of a strong weekly resistance zone.

Forecast:The pair is expected to trade between key support and resistance zones throughout the week. A test of resistance may trigger a reversal, followed by a downward move toward support in the second half of the week.

Potential Reversal Zones:

  • Resistance: 194.20 – 194.70
  • Support: 190.60 – 190.10

Recommendations:

  • Selling: Premature until the current bullish correction fully plays out.
  • Buying: Consider long positions only after confirmed reversal signals near support.

USD/CAD

Analysis:The uptrend in USD/CAD dominated the short-term trend until early February. Since then, a downward wave with strong reversal potential has been developing. Over the past week, a corrective move has formed, which is expected to complete before resuming the decline.

Forecast:The pair is likely to trade sideways throughout the week. At the beginning of the week, support levels may be tested, potentially breaking below them briefly before a bullish reversal towards resistance. A trend shift is likely at the end of this week or early next week.

Recommendations:

  • Selling: High risk, lacks potential.
  • Buying: Consider entering long positions after confirmed reversal signals near support.

NZD/USD

Analysis:Since last summer, NZD/USD has been in a downtrend, forming a descending wave pattern. Since late December, a corrective wave (B) has been developing. Price extremes form an extended flat pattern, which remains incomplete.

Forecast:The upward movement may continue early next week, likely reaching the resistance zone. A sideways phase and subsequent reversal are expected. Declines may resume towards the weekend.

Potential Reversal Zones:

  • Resistance: 0.5770 – 0.5820
  • Support: 0.5650 – 0.5600

Recommendations:

  • Buying: Can be considered with reduced lot sizes within intraday sessions.
  • Selling: Wait for confirmed reversal signals near resistance.

GOLD (XAU/USD)

Analysis:The bullish trend in gold continues. The last incomplete wave segment since November 14 does not yet show signs of completion. Recent sideways movement remains within the correction phase of the larger trend. Gold prices are drifting between potential reversal zones of varying scales.

Forecast:Gold may decline toward support zones in the coming days, forming a reversal pattern. Price recovery and renewed bullish momentum are expected in the second half of the week.

This image is no longer relevant

Potential Reversal Zones:

  • Resistance: 2950.0 – 2970.0
  • Support: 2850.0 – 2830.0
