FX.co ★ GBP/JPY Elliott wave count and Fibonacci levels for April 19, 2012

GBP/JPY is developing impulse wave A of medium term uptrend from 127.04 (light green in the chart). Within this wave we have five subwaves (orange red in the chart), and impulse subwave 5 is developing from 129.05.

Now the targets above are Fibonacci retracements of 133.32-127.04, and expansions off 127.51-129.66-129.05, 129.05-130.38-130.03.

Resistances:

- 130.85 = contracted objective point (COP)
- 130.92 = .618 ret
- 131.20 = objective point (OP)
- 131.36 = OP

If the price reverses to the downside the immediate supports will be Fibonacci retracements of the wave up from 127.04 - this wave is not developed yet, so no supports are available so far.

Overbought/Oversold

The bigger wave is now moving up, so it's preferable to try long positions when the Detrended Oscillator goes below the zero level (15-20 pips below the current prices) or into the oversold area (40-55 pips below the current prices). Watch for opportunities to go long at or near the indicated supports.
