Technical Outlook of the week - NZDCHF Scenario 1:
Chart updated on 04.03.2022

After bouncing back from key resistance level 0.6262 from the upside as per our last forecast (see below) , NZDCHF sworn down to 0.6144 but lacked sufficient selling pressure to continue its downtrend.

It appears that final wave Y of W-X-Y correction is quite complex and there might be 2 scenarios popping up in the near term.

Scenario 1 : we could have reached final wave ‘e’ before downtrend resumes. (As per Elliott wave principle a triangle can be formed as final wave C of wave Y  of  W-X-Y correction)

                      Key resistance level is wave ‘e’ of barrier triangle of wave C – 0.6259.
