19.08.202413:44 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Weekly Forecast Based on Simplified Wave Analysis for GBP/USD, AUD/USD, USD/CHF, EUR/JPY, AUD/JPY, Ethereum, and US Dollar Index on August 19

GBP/USD

Analysis:

The major pair of the British pound continues its upward movement, which began at the start of this month. The price has broken through intermediate resistance, opening the way for further growth. Before the trend continues, it is necessary to raise the wave level of the movement through a correction.

Forecast:

At the beginning of the upcoming week, a brief sideways movement on the British pound chart is possible. Pressure on the support level, with a potential short-term breach of its lower boundary, cannot be ruled out. A reversal and a resumption of upward movement are expected afterward. The highest activity is likely by the end of the week.

AUD/JPY

Analysis:

The direction of the short-term trend of the Australian dollar/Japanese yen pair has been set by the upward wave since the beginning of this month. The wave level of this movement indicates potential for a reversal, at least on the H4 chart. The price movements on the chart over the past two weeks show the formation of a hidden, irregular correction. The final segment is missing from its structure.

Forecast:

In the upcoming week, the price is expected to continue moving within the channel between the nearest opposing zones. After a decline and possible pressure on the support zone, a reversal and a shift to an upward vector are expected.

Ethereum

Analysis:

After a period of decline since the beginning of August, the trend on the Ethereum chart has changed. The upward wave has a high wave level. On the daily scale of the chart, this segment has initiated a new trend. Wave analysis indicates that the corrective phase (B) within this wave is nearing completion.

Forecast:

At the beginning of the upcoming week, a continuation of the downward vector is expected. A price decline is likely to reach the support boundaries, where the zone of potential reversal of the larger timeframe passes. A change in direction and a resumption of Ethereum's price rise are expected thereafter.

US Dollar Index

Analysis:

The downward trend wave of the U.S. dollar index has completed. The high wave level of the upward segment from August 5 demonstrates a new emerging trend. At present, the wave level of this movement suggests that the emerging trend is significant enough to be observed on the daily chart. The quotes are forming a correction along the upper boundary of the potential reversal zone.

Forecast:

At the beginning of the current week, the sideways movement of the dollar index is expected to continue. Closer to the weekend, there is a high probability of increased volatility and a resumption of the upward trend. The calculated resistance shows the upper boundary of the expected weekly move.
