Complete Mapping Analysis — USDJPY (H1 Chart)

54
Strategy Focus: Elliott Wave (Impulse) + AO Divergence + Fibonacci Extensions

🔍 1. Current Wave Structure (Elliott Wave Count)
You’ve identified:

A completed Wave 3 (impulse).

A completed or nearly completed Wave 4 correction.

Now projecting Wave 5 to complete the 5-wave impulse.

Substructure breakdown:

Wave 1-2: Clean impulse and pullback.

Wave 3: Strong rally with AO confirming higher momentum peaks.

Wave 4: Corrective move, breaking below the internal trendline (initial break), signaling potential end of correction.

Wave 5 (projected): Final push upward to complete the motive wave.

📊 2. Fibonacci Extension Targets
From Wave 0–3 and Wave 4 retracement:

2.618 extension: ~146.50

2.886 extension: ~146.78

4.236 extension: ~148.22 (Aggressive top for a possible extended fifth)

These are possible Wave 5 termination zones. Confluence with previous supply zones increases likelihood of reversal here.

📉 3. Momentum Confirmation — Awesome Oscillator (AO)
You're watching for:

Bearish Divergence on AO:

Wave 3 had a strong momentum peak.

Expect Wave 5 to push higher in price, but AO shows a lower high, signaling weakening momentum.

This aligns with classic Wave 5 behavior — price extension with momentum exhaustion.

🧭 4. Entry Strategy
Setup: Long entry at Wave 4 bottom.

Entry trigger: Initial break → minor pullback → bullish confirmation candle.

AO: Turns green after red bars = first sign of momentum recovery.

Optional confirmation: Break of short-term structure high (micro Wave 1 in Wave 5).

🎯 5. Take Profit Plan
Layered take-profit strategy based on Fibonacci and AO:

Target Zone Price Area Action
TP1 (Safe) ~1.618 (145.44–145.72) Take partial profit (30–50%)
TP2 (Primary) ~2.618 (146.50) Secure majority of profit (80%)
TP3 (Max/Stretch) ~4.236 (148.22) Optional final push / runner

🛡 6. Stop Loss Strategy
SL placement: Below Wave (4) low (~143.73 zone) or below structure break.

Use structure break or strong bearish engulfing as a reason to exit early if momentum fails.

⚠️ 7. Divergence & Reversal Monitoring
Once price enters your TP2–TP3 zone:

Look for:

AO divergence (price high vs. AO lower high).

Bearish engulfing candles or microstructure breaks.

Weak volume or extended wick rejection.

These may indicate Wave 5 completion and the start of Wave A (correction) or a reversal.

🔄 8. Next Play After Wave 5 Completes
If divergence confirms and reversal begins:

Map corrective structure (ABC).

Short from:

Break of rising wedge/trendline.

AO flips red + break of microstructure.

Target retracement:

0.382 to 0.618 retracement of the full Wave 1–5 impulse.

Target zone: ~144.80 – 143.70

✅ Summary: Strategic Flow
✅ Identify Wave 4 completion → Confirm via initial break + minor pullback.

✅ Long entry for Wave 5 → Enter on bullish candle or structural break.

✅ Track AO → Expect divergence at Wave 5 peak.

✅ Use Fibonacci for TP zones.

✅ Exit with confirmation of divergence and reversal signs.

✅ Option to reverse short post-Wave 5.
