Simplified wave analysis and forecast for EUR/USD and GBP/USD on May 15

EUR/USD

On the short-term chart of the euro, the latest wave construction is bearish, from March 20. It has a pronounced flat character, taking the place of correction in a larger wave model. The analysis of the structure shows the formation of the final part (C). It has a distinct zigzag.

Forecast:

In the downward section that began yesterday, there was a counter wave of the smallest scale. At the next sessions, a flat stop or a short-term price increase is expected. Towards the end of the day, the probability of a return to the bearish rate of movement increases. A breakthrough below the support zone is not expected today.

Recommendations:

Open transactions for the sale of the euro in the near future need to either close the counter order or close. Purchases are highly risky, possible only with short-term "scalping". Until the completion of the current wave, the main priority should be given to sales of the pair.

Resistance zones:

- 1.1240 / 1.1270

Support zones:

- 1.1170 / 1.1140

GBP/USD

The bearish section of May 3 completes a larger downward wave formation. The price has reached the next level of support, passing in a wide potential reversal zone of the senior TF.

Forecast:

On the chart of the smallest TF, an upward reversal structure has formed, which indicates the flat character of the upcoming sessions. Possible short-term price growth. A return to the main movement vector is likely at the end of the day or tomorrow.

Recommendations:

The most reasonable behavior of traders in the pair market today will be abstaining from transactions for the rollback period. Supporters of intra-session trading can make short-term purchases with a reduced lot. A general recommendation would be to look for sell signals at the end of the upcoming price rise.

Resistance zones:

- 1.2960 / 1.2990

Support zones:

- 1.2900 / 1.2870
