Jem has asked me for my view on AUD/USD. This cross has been a very tough call. Wave 4 broke the nice wave 2-4 channel (the gray channel) after what could look like a fifth failure an fell in five waves, but it turned out to be wave c of 4. Despite the following break above 94.05 the end of wave 3, I still view the rally from 60.04 as wave [B] in a major flat or expanded flat correction. If the current rally is part of a flat correction (my preferred count), then we should be very close to the top. We might need a little longer time-wise before the top is finally set, but not necessary a much higher high. The two boxes I have drawn represent my best estimates of a time extreme.
If I'm right that the current rally since the 60.04 low is just part (wave [B]) of an major flat correction, then we should soon see wave [C] down take over. Wave [C] should ideally end below the end of wave [A], which means that the low of wave [C] would be below 60.04 in late 2011 (ideally around December 13 - 2011).
If this tunes out to be a expanded flat correction we could see this [B] rally extend to the 107 area and in its extreme the 113 area. If this is the case at no time should we see a break below 92.08, before the top near 107 or 113 is in place.
In the short term a break below 95.40 and more importantly 94,60 would weaken the bullish case and add caution for a possible top.
By the way, the last part of the rally from 87.69 seem to be exponentially in shape, which should add caution in stability of this rally too.
Thanks EWS! Great write-up, and much appreciated :)
