The Australian Dollar corrected higher against its US namesake as expected but the down trend started in early September may now be resuming.
GBP/USD topped then dropped. Now it appears to be moving higher in a corrective pattern. See the Elliott Wave count for a GBP/USD move lower.
USD/JPY continues to trade stubbornly lower toward the bottom of the November range, but a development from N. Korea failed to trigger new JPY longs.
The combination of current sentiment and recent changes gives us a stronger USDJPY-bearish contrarian trading bias.
