Ready for Wave 5 in EUR/USD?

Ready for Wave 5 in EUR/USD?

Friday saw an absolutely monstrous reversal range that showed EUR/USD on three different handles in one day. EUR/USD traded 1.31, 1.32, and 1.33 all in the same 24-hour period, which was also large enough to define the range for the whole week. So you will notice that the daily pivots and weekly pivots are exactly the same because Friday's high and low were also the high and low for the entire week.

We've been talking about the 1.0 projection from wave 2 at 1.3230, and the 1.618 Projection of wave 2 in the 1.3140 area all last week. The 1.0 at 1.3240 nailed the low post-NFP, which setup the 125 point rally. Then sellers stepped back in after news from the BOJ and put EUR/USD back through NFP levels, through 1.3240, and here we are on the Tokyo open trading 1.3145. I am long at 1.3145 with bids to buy more at 1.3135 and 1.3125 with the stop under 1.3100. If this is indeed the wave 4 low, wave 5 should carry up and through the 1.3360 highs.
