Our weekly Elliott Wave analysis reviews the EUR/USD daily chart, the GBP/USD daily chart, and the Bitcoin cryptocurrency daily chart.
 

EUR/USD Bullish Breakout Expected for Push to 1.05

The EUR/USD is building a contracting triangle chart pattern. Let’s review what to expect with the next price swing:

1. The EUR/USD seems to be building a sideways consolidation after price action showed a strong bullish impulsive with 3 bullish dily candles.
2. The bullish momentum is probably a wave A (yellow) and the sideways triangle pattern is expected to be a wave B (yellow).
3. Usually, these patterns show a bullish breakout (blue arrow) to complete wave B and start wave C (yellow).
4. However, a bearish breakout does not invalidate the wave B (yellow) as long as price action stays above the Fibonacci retracement levels of wave A.
5. The main target for the wave C is the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level near 1.05.
6. A breakout above the resistance line could indicate the start of the wave C (yellow).
7. A bearish bounce at the 38.2% Fibonacci level could complete the ABC (yellow) within wave W (pink). 
8. A larger WXY (pink) correction could occur within wave 4 (gray) as long as the shallow resistance Fibs are respected.

GBP/USD Bearish ABC towards 1.19-1.20

The GBP/USD is building a bearish retracement but a key support zone is nearby:

1. The GBP/USD also seems to be building an ABC (yellow) pattern.
2. Wave B (yellow) could make a deeper retracement toward the inverted head and shoulders support level (purple).
3. A bullish bounce could aim at the 38.2% Fibonacci resistance level near 1.25.
4. The ABC (yellow) could complete a wave W (pink) of a larger WXY (pink) in wave 4 (gray).
5. A bearish ABC bounce could emerge within wave X (pink) at the 38.2% Fibonacci level.

BTC/USD Breaking Above Key Resistance

Bitcoin (BTC/USD) seems to be building an uptrend after creating several higher highs and higher lows:

1. BTC/USD has broken above the daily highs of the past several days.
2. The bullish breakout could indicate a bullish continuation after BTC/USD already managed to show several higher highs and higher lows.
3. The main target of the 5 wave pattern (yellow) within a larger ABC (pink) pattern is at the 30k price level near the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level.
4. A break below the bottoms would invalidate the bullish reversal.
5. A larger WXY (blue) complex correction could take place within the expected wave B (gray) correction.
