Lithium ETF (LIT) ended a bullish cycle in November 2021, and we call it wave (I). Wave I ended at 41.19 and we had a 3 waves correction to end wave II at 17.82. Then in March 2020, we saw a strong bounce toward 74.95 to complete wave III and a pullback as wave IV ending at 55.00. The latest rally made new 5 waves to finish at 97.26 and complete wave V and wave (I). From this point the downward movement started, and it seems that it should complete a double correction before continuing with a rally. We can clearly see 3 swings down to complete wave w at 61.50. Then the x-connector ended at 82.15 and continue lower. Finishing the wave x, we called LIT could build a double correction structure as we can see in the chart.

The bounce completed wave ((X)) at 72.77 and continued with the downtrend. From here, the market made another 3 swings more lower building the double correction structure ((W)), ((X)) and ((Y)). The ETF needs one more low to reach 46.61 – 24.62 blue box area missed by 5 cents. Also this should end red wxy correction and wave (II) where it should rally to start a new uptrend.
