Weekly Forecast--021212
EUR/USD: With last weeks strong reversal, it may have signaled the end of the MT correction, which means my MT forecast would be off by close to 200 pips. That is still not confirmed, but what is confirmed is that the DOWN will continue this week. It is doubtful the WR1 at 1.3277 will be hit this week, but the correction will continue north to start the week. To the south, we have the WS2 at 1.3033 to look forward to. Watch for a reaction at that point. If we get too far past it, then were going to the low-1.2900s.
USD/JPY: This pattern ended last week in a pattern of consolidation after a strong move north. Another leg north should be the order of things to start the week. The level to watch for is the WR2 at 78.35. If it is touched, then this pair could be on its way to the 79.00s. This pair has been in a super funk for 6 months. The only to come out of it is for the move to continue north to around 81.00. If that happens, then we could get the OB condition we need to send this pair scampering for another leg south on the LT radar
GBP/USD: There is little doubt the correction is over for this pair. It has the WS2 at 1.5644 on the radar this week, and it should go even much lower.
USD/CHF: The bottom of the hourly cloud is .9117, which ties in perfectly with the WS1, and it should contain this week. Watch out for the WR2 at .9258. Any kind of a strong spike through it, then we are headed back to the top of the cloud / kijun combo at .9354.
AUD/USD: There is an R zone on the 4-hour between 1.07271.0744. That should contain any moves to the north. Once back in the DOWN, this pair should hit the MS1 at 1.0641.
USD/CAD: There are quite a few 2s this week signaling high acceleration if they are so much as touched, and this is another one of those pairs. The WR2 is 1.0076, and if it is touch, then we can put 1.0206 on the radar. The pair reversed its fortunes to end last week, and it should continue south this week. There is a major ST cluster event at .9981. It needs to contain, and most likely will.
NZD/USD: This pair put on a show to end last week, and all the indications are there it is now going much lower. The WR1 is .8304, but this pair senses no urgency to correct that far. The WS2 at .8179 is on the radar this week. MT, it has the daily kijun at .8086 in its sights.
EUR/GBP: The 4-hour cloud top/ WS1 combo at .8336 should contain the move north that end last week and will probably continue this week. As a matter a fact, a very strong move towards the weekly kijun at .8552 could be expected. This week look for the WR2 at .8454 to be hit, and the pair could continue its march beyond that.
EUR/JPY: The move south that ended last week will go deeper this week. It does not appear it is ready to reverse, but may have entered an extended consolidation phase. Ideal containment is 101.21, but it could go to 100.78. Anything below the latter, and then it gets ugly for future direction.
GBP/JPY: The daily tenken at 121.37 needs to hold if this pair will continue higher. A move north to start the week towards ichimoku cluster R at 122.59. As long as it holds, then there is no reason to believe that 121.37 will, and so like its cousin, the EUR/JPY some consolidation could be the order of the day.
EUR/AUD: I got this pair back on my watch list. This pair gave the appearance it is back on its MT track going south, but I doubt that will be the case. Containment heading south should be the 4-hour kijun at 1.2275. Afterward the move north should be back on track. Watch for reaction at the WR2 at 1.2442. It will probably contain this week, but if there is a very strong bounce off it, then it could be back to the drawing board for this pair, and that also is doubtful. By next week, this pair should be approaching the weekly tenken at 1.2684.
