Higher Risk Aversion Leading To New Count
After my target in the EUR/USD was met, we pulled back to 1.2650 and have since re-gathered upside momentum. I have re-done the count to allow for a larger upside move. The S&P 500 seems to be attempting a 740 double bottom as we currently trade 765 in the cash market. I am a bit cautious of relying on this EUR/USD-equity correlation too heavily, because it has become somewhat unreliable in recent weeks, but for today it seems to be intact.
Wave 1 minimum objective at 1.2863 has been met, which means we are looking towards 1.2964 at the 1.618 projection. I will be monitoring smaller wave structures for opportunistic trading opportunities tonight and will update my plan accordingly. For now, I am looking to buy a pullback toward 1.2800 with stops below 1.2740 targeting a move into that 1.618 projection objective.
