Elliott Wave View: Nikkei Rally Likely Fails for DownsideElliott Wave view is calling an end to Nikkei’s rally from December 26, 2018 low with wave X at 21884. The Index should resume the move lower and should eventually break below wave December 26, 2018 low. Or at minimum, the Index should do a larger 3 waves pullback to correct the cycle from 19055 low. Down from wave X at 21884, the decline is unfolding as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure where wave ((a)) ended at 20680. Internal of wave ((a)) subdivides as a 5 waves impulse.
Wave ((b)) bounce is currently in progress as a Flat Elliott Wave structure. Up from 20680, wave (a) ended at 21520 and wave (b) ended at 20705. Internal of wave (a) unfolded as a double three Elliott Wave structure. Up from 21520 low, wave w ended at 21410, wave x ended at 21015, and wave y of (a) ended at 21520. Internal of wave (b) ended as a zigzag at 20705. Wave a of (b) ended at 21160, wave b of (b) ended at 21505, and wave c of (b) ended at 20705. Wave (c) of ((b)) is in progress as a 5 waves impulse. The rally should fail below March 4 high at 21884 for further downside. We don’t like buying the Index and expect rally to fail for further downside as far as pivot at 21884 high stays intact.
Not a Fan of that Resistance or PerformanceWhile there is much room to go before we hit resistance, I am really not a huge fan of this overall lackluster performance. Keep in mind, the BoJ owns upwards of 80 percent of the entire Japanese ETF market. 80 percent. Let that sink in. Also, export data is weak in an economy where exports make up 18 percent of GDP. If we gain five percent from today, nobody will be happier than me as my overall macro view will gladly change. I can sleep at night being wrong on five percent. But really though what could possibly lead to that given the last three months where some Asian markets like the Shanghai Composite would gain 5 percent in a single day while Japan is asleep? Just not convinced. More fundy and technical analysis on Asian markets as they move today here: anthonylaurence.wordpress.com

NI225 SHORT idea Hi huys and Merry Christmas. I post my recent for short possitions at Nikkei 225 with target 18025 ! Which is a high profit move or a trade if you got the whole picture of global markets and not for intraday investing. As we see ADX and Vortex Index signs 2 very solid sell signals through crossovers between the negative variables and positive variables. Invest with wisdom guys and be carefull !
Might be a good chance for a short on NikkeiNikkei looks to be on a desceding trend on the hourly chart. As we can see it broke downwards it's ascending trend and continued it's global image searching for lower lows, as it broke downwards an ascending trend developed in the daily chart.
What we're looking here is that price has respected it's current trendline and failed to breakout ema's 50 giving out a tiring candle signal, that's the first bell indicating that a reversal is likely.
According to it's current trend searching for lower lows, the price may search for a lower low around the orange indicated section as it is an important support, which is also close to fibbonaci's level 1.272 coming from the downward breakout from the previous uptrend.
I'll operate this trade once the candle in the hourly chart closes red or giving a japanese pattern of reversal.
Nikkei approaching support, potential bounce!

NIKKEI DOWNSIDE CONTINUATION LIKELYThe NIKKEI is seeing significant downside largely due to the current strength of the JPY. With the outflow from the stock indicies to the safe havens, we should see further downside to the key support of 20240.00.
Look for continuation trades on the lower timeframes.
