MCD Elliott Wave technical analysis – Daily chart

MCD is advancing within wave {v} of wave 1 (or potentially wave (1) of Primary 5), as it trades around the significant resistance level at $300, which corresponds to TradingLevel3. This area is critical, as it could mark the completion of this impulsive wave or set up for the next phase in a larger bullish structure. A potential top formation around this level could indicate either the completion of wave 1 or an extended move higher in Primary wave 5.

MCD Elliott Wave technical analysis – One-hour chart

On the 1-hour chart, MCD is progressing in wave (iii) of {v}, with a clear upside momentum as it approaches the key $300 mark once again. The current price action suggests that MCD is likely to continue higher in wave (iii), and a decisive break above $300 would confirm the bullish case, with potential targets towards an All-Time High (ATH).
