USDZAR-trading the wave 2 near all-time highs

A great long term opportunity here trading the wave 2 according to previous educational post "how to look for setups using EW" (see related ideas)

Looking at weekly chart we see price finished a long term zigzag near all-time highs.

We see also a clear five wave impulse finished (wave 5 circled blue)

Here on D1 chart price already finished wave 1 (green in parenthesis) and made a deep retracement for wave 2(green).

An ideal setup for a short entry with low risk. SL above 14.000 would be enough, although technically SL should be at all-time highs.

If this count is correct price should reach the 1.61 fib expansion at least (target 2).

- SL above 14.000 (better above all-time highs)
- first target: last lows
- second target: 1.61 fib expansion
- third target : 2.61 fib expansion (near 10.000)

Other reasons to short:

- convergence-divergence setup (can you spot it?)
- AB=CD pattern visible on H4 chart (see below)
- bearish shark visible on H4 chart (see below)


Best regards.
