Elliott wave analysis of EUR/JPY and EUR/NZD

 EUR/JPY

The price-action since yesterday has been very much as I expected. Once we broke below 125.21 there was no looking back and we saw a quick decent to support at 123.79. After a small consolidation in the 123.80 - 124.39 area we have seen the next move lower, which I believe will find good support at 123.00 of a correction back towards 124.39. Resistance at 124.39 will ideally protect the upside for the next decline lower towards 122.70. My long term target for the ongoing wave 4 is at minimum 120.71 and more likely 117.24. At 117.24 wave 4 will have corrected 38.2% of wave 3 and at the same time this marks the bottom of wave four of one lessor degree. Two very common targets for wave 4. 

EUR/NZD

We have seen the expected decline back to the channel support-line near 1.5700 and we should expect support in this area to be much stronger. I do not see any evidence of a bottom yet, but I will look for a bottom to form in the 1.5650 - 1.5700 area for a break above resistance at 1.5803, which will be the first indication, that a bottom is in place. That said, we will have to accept that this decline could go even lower towards 1.5540 before the bottom is in place. Remember we are in a very complex correction since the 1.5902 high back in early September.
