USD/CAD Elliott Wave

For the last few weeks, the USD/CAD pair was trading downwards, corrective wave [b] (coloured black) of the bigger wave A (coloured blue) was developing. In the 1-hour chart of the USD/CAD pair, we can see that the price broke to the new lows in the early Friday’s session, this move makes us look at the [b] wave as the Zig-Zag pattern. The final (c) wave of the bigger wave [b] wave tested the 100% extension of the wave (a), so techincily speaking wave [b] should be over with a test of the 1.1008 level. All the way the price remains above the 1.09300 level (short-term invalidation), we are going to look only for a buying opportunity in the [c] of A wave. In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that wave [c] should extend 100% of wave [a], we can define the potential targets with measuring wave [a] with take profit at 1.1288 (100% of wave [a]).
