Hang Seng Index Elliott Wave technical analysis

Function: Trend

Mode: Corrective

Structure: Orange wave 2

Position: Navy blue wave 3

Direction next higher degrees: Orange wave 3

Details: Orange wave 2 still in play, nearing end. Orange wave 3 will start next.

Wave cancel invalid level: 16044.39

The Hang Seng Index Elliott Wave analysis on the daily chart indicates the market is currently in a corrective trend. This mode suggests a temporary reversal or correction rather than a continuation of the primary trend.

Structure analysis

  • Current Structure: Orange wave 2
    • In Elliott Wave Theory, wave 2 typically follows the initial impulse wave (wave 1). It usually retraces a significant portion of wave 1, setting the stage for wave 3.
  • Current Position: Navy blue wave 3
    • Indicates the market is expected to enter the third wave of the larger degree navy blue wave sequence. Wave 3 in any degree is typically the most powerful and provides significant directional movement in the trend's direction.

Direction for higher degrees

  • Next Higher Degree: Orange wave 3
    • After the completion of the current orange wave 2, the market is anticipated to start a strong upward movement as part of orange wave 3. Wave 3 is known for its strength and is often the most extended wave in the Elliott Wave cycle.

Current status

  • Orange wave 2: Nearing its end
    • This implies the corrective phase is almost complete, and the market is preparing to transition into orange wave 3, which will be an impulse wave moving in the direction of the primary trend.

Critical level

  • Wave Cancel Invalid Level: 16044.39
    • This level serves as a critical point; if the market moves beyond this level, the current wave count would be invalidated, necessitating a reevaluation of the wave structure.

Summary

The Hang Seng Index on the daily chart is in a corrective phase within orange wave 2. This wave is nearing completion, and the market is expected to start orange wave 3, indicating a strong upward movement. The wave cancel invalid level is 16044.39, beyond which the current analysis would need to be reassessed.

EUR/USD climbs to two-week highs beyond 1.1900

EUR/USD is keeping its foot on the gas at the start of the week, reclaiming the 1.1900 barrier and above on Monday. The US Dollar remains on the back foot, with traders reluctant to step in ahead of Wednesday’s key January jobs report, allowing the pair to extend its upward grind for now.

GBP/USD hits three-day peaks, targets 1.3700

GBP/USD is clocking decent gains at the start of the week, advancing to three-day highs near 1.3670 and building on Friday’s solid performance. The better tone in the British Pound comes on the back of the intense sekk-off in the Greenback and despite re-emerging signs of a fresh government crisis in the UK.

Gold treads water around $5,000

Gold is trading in an inconclusive fashion around the key $5,000 mark on Monday week. Support is coming from fresh signs of further buying from the PBoC, while expectations that the Fed could turn more dovish, alongside concerns over its independence, keep the demand for the precious metal running.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin steadies around $70,000, Ethereum and XRP remain under pressure 

Bitcoin hovers around $70,000, up near 15% from last week's low of $60,000 despite low retail demand. Ethereum delicately holds $2,000 support as weak technicals weigh amid declining futures Open Interest. XRP seeks support above $1.40 after facing rejection at $1.54 during the previous week's sharp rebound.

Japanese PM Takaichi nabs unprecedented victory – US data eyed this week

I do not think I would be exaggerating to say that Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s snap general election gamble paid off over the weekend – and then some. This secured the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) an unprecedented mandate just three months into her tenure.

Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple consolidate after massive sell-off

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple prices consolidated on Monday after correcting by nearly 9%, 8%, and 10% in the previous week, respectively. BTC is hovering around $70,000, while ETH and XRP are facing rejection at key levels. Traders should be cautious: despite recent stabilization, upside recovery for these top three cryptocurrencies is capped as the broader trend remains bearish.
