USD/RUB Elliott Wave
For the last few days the USD/RUB pair was trading in a downward move developing corrective wave (2) (coloured orange) of the bigger 5 wave (coloured purple). At the moment we can observe the beginning of the impulsive (3) wave (coloured orange), so we need to be prepared for entering a long position and trying to get most of this impulsive wave. In accordance with our wave rules and taking into account that the wave 3 retraces 161.8% of the wave 1, we can define the potential targets with Fibonacci extensions (31.7505-33.0310-32.0025) with Take Profit 1 at 34.0647 (161.8% of wave 1). To reduce the risk, we can use Invalidation point at 31.7505 as Stop Loss. Also it is necessary to monitor the U.S. Unemployment Claims, Factory Orders m/m and Natural Gas Storage data that can change the rate of the pair.
