AUDUSD update Short

Australian Dollar/U.S. DollarFXCM

Description

Months ago I wrote about my minimum target for AUDUSD to be 0.81. However the question is how we get there. (and likely even higher). There are several scenario's I'm looking at for next weeks trading which are based on the following set-up:
1hr

15min

This pair looks ready for a reversal shown in the charts above.
First of all it looks ready but as I showed on the 15min timeframe it might take out the previous high once more although I don't favor that. IF we move higher by means of a new bullish impulse I have to let it go for now so I'm only looking for a sell opportunity until structure tells otherwise.

The following scenario's are what I'm looking at once we see the sell trade present itself:
daily tf scenario 1;
1-2 wave count before impulsive wave 3 takes over


daily tf scenario 2;
triangle scenario for wave 'B' which in this case will shift to the right


daily tf scenario 3:
price is still going to take out the low of wave A before reversing bullish


The last scenario will mean that in terms of Elliott Wave Principle the wavecount will change in a W-X-Y count. I don't want to confuse traders so let's keep in simple in terms of ABC patterns for short term trading.

Conclusion: I will be looking for a bearish reversal for AUDUSD, once I see the trigger to short I will manage my position by keeping in mind the 3 scenario's I just described. If we see for example a flag pattern unfold we know that scenario 1 or 2 is more likely than 3. If we see a sharp reversal we know that most likely scenario 1 or 3 are more likely.

Follow me for updates because I will update this pair on a daily basis

watch for flags if not in the trade yet. But keep an open mind, we are still dealing with several possible scenario's on the higher time frames.

We saw the flag and I'm in the short. Let's see whether this is the continuation of the move lower. Once the move confirms we can focus on what structure is the most likely.

Hi Tim, I'm wondering if you still think we are in wave 4 starting Jan 16 and have reached C yet. Or if your long term count has changed into what ?
Cheers
