USD/INR on 03 Nov 2015 - At Interesting Crossroads

It has been long since I wrote about USD/INR.  Paucity of time has always kept me away and has also forced me to be cryptic most of the times.

After USD/INR did its high of 69.22, it dipped steadily in a corrective form to touch 58.25 in May 2014.  Since then it started rising and has so far made a high of 67.04 in September this year.  The high may be reset one more time, but is not guaranteed.  There are three possibilities.

1.  67.04 still marks a sub fractal of B/5 and USD/INR may either reach closer to 69.22 or may even surpass it.  IMHP, if it had to go that far, it may even threaten 72.  But at this juncture, it looks less likely.

2  67.04 is B ending of a CT that commenced from 69.22 and the dip is C, with D and E to follow.  If so, which looks more probable, the dip has potential to go till 58.25.  My take is that it would reach somewhere between 59.8-60.9, if it follows this path.  This possibility is also supported by a bearish WW (that has already failed once and would be alive only once USD/INR dips below 64.5).

3.  67.04 is X with W ending at 58.25, which again leaves a possibility of a dip below 58.25.

There is another possibility that the CT instead of commencing from 69.22 as 4th, has actually commenced from 58.25 and 67.04 is its A,  This would ckeep USD/INR pair within 58.25-67.04 for atleast an year or may be more.

There are some more possibilities but then there is no ends to possibilities when you are working out EW fractals.  For the time being, I am keeping these four possibilities in mind and trying to get to a trade-able plan.

The UTL for move from recent high of 67.04 is presently near 65.68.  In post market moves, USD/INR has already crossed it and has dipped back below it.  Inference is that the rise may have been completed.  What ensues may be a 5th of an LD or a C of a corrective, both from 67.04.  The high made now should be kept as reference to keep SLs, which would be well above 65.68 to provide cushion for mild spikes.  With this setup, the targets could be 65.4/65.1/64.62/64.53/64.3/63.89.

If USD/INR starts sustaining above the falling channel, the position should be covered or should be exited as 72 would start becoming a possibility.  If USD/INR shows the current levels in the market hours, the risk reward will be extremely favourable for a short.

USDINR 06 February 2014 : A CT in Progress

Its been a long time and I find myself again with very little time to write much.  The chart below says it all....

USDINR is likely to linger between 61 and 63.5 for some time and then break down for 54 or lower....

USD/INR 04 October 2013 : ET in Progress.

The chart below shows a possibility that an ET may be underway as either A4 or as B, following which, another low is going to be made.  For the time being, USDINR may target 63.8 or so and then dip below 60.88.

USDINR 25 August 2013 : EW Counts Revisited

The price action in USDINR far exceeded my perceptions posted at USDINR 12 Aug 2013 : Peaking out and prompted me to revisit the EW setup.  A fresh look after seeing data for past 15 years revealed the following:

The larger frame work....
 



















A closer view...


















EW counts :


I 39.48 - 51.94 = -12.46

II 51.94 - 43.225 = 8.715
-69.9438
III 43.225 - 69.5 = -26.275
210.8748**


Fractals of III


1 43.225 - 53.74 = -10.515

2 53.74 - 48.57 = 5.17
-49.1679
3 48.57 - 69 = -20.43
194.2939**

Fractals of 3

(1) 48.57 - 57.335 = -8.765

(2) 57.335 - 51.36 = 5.975
-68.1689
(3) 51.36 - 65.561 = -14.201
162.0194**

Fractals of (3)



i 51.365 - 55.875 = -4.51

ii 55.875 - 52.89 = 2.985
-66.1863
iii 52.89 - 61.53 = -8.64
191.5743
iv 61.53 - 58.6 = 2.93 -33.912
v 58.6 - 65.57 = -6.97
154.5455**

Max 65.9.  But if v started from 58.66, it may go upto 59.96 (which should be the basis for SL)

Fractals of v
  
(i) 58.6 - 61.905 = -3.305

(ii) 61.905 - 60.245 = 1.66
-50.2269
(iii) 60.245 - 65.561 = -5.316 160.8472
(iv) 65.561 - 63.206 = 2.355
-44.3002**
(v) 63.206 - 65.89 = -2.684
81.21029***

** In progress
*** Projected.

(iv) may be over, but has scope to go down till 61.905.
(v) should not go over 65.9/65.96 based on count at one degree higher.
(iii) is not yet extended but it would be extended if v started from 58.66.  In other possibility, (iii) could be extended with respect to (v), as it remains restricted to 65.9/65.96

Based on these counts, shorts could be initiated above 65.57 with SL of 65.96/66.01 for a target of 60.

USDINR 12 Aug 2013 : Peaking out

I had posted my last detailed post on USDINR at USDINR 10 July 2013 : Gets complicated and a short update on the likely EW counts at USDINR 01 August 2013 : The most preferred EW count. The moves so far continue to remain within expected alternates.  The chart below is an update of how it looks for USDINR as on 12 August 2013.



This chart has guided me so far in the longer term for past six months or more and it still continues to remain the biggest influence on how I think about USDINR.  The chart shows an APF in red and two SFFs in blue and purple.  The reference points are shown in circles of respective colors.  Some important resistance/supports within an object are shown with triangles of same color.  Presently I expect the price action to remain within UTLs of blue and purple SFFs.  A breach back of purple UTL needs to occur for any substantial correction or a fall below previous low.  The EW count so far remain as


1 51.365 - 55.875 = -4.51

2 55.875 - 52.89 = 2.985
-66.1863
3 52.89 - 61.905 = -9.015
199.8891
4 61.905 - 58.46 = 3.445
-38.2141
5 58.46 - 62.97 = -4.51
100

Trade Setup  - Longs near 58 and shorts near 62.2 can be initiated as and when they are reached for targets to blue and purple UTLs respectively.  SLs can be suitably taken beyond the respective TLs.
