NAB Elliott Wave technical analysis
Function: Major trend (Minute degree, green).
Mode: Motive.
Structure: Impulse.
Position: Wave (c)-purple of Wave ((iv))-green.
Details: The short-term outlook describes that waves ((i))-green through ((iii))-green have concluded, and wave ((iv))-green is now unfolding. A common retracement target for wave 4 is at the 0.382 level, so I anticipate that wave ((iv)) will continue to decline to lower levels, while prices consistently remain below 36.11, which would increase confidence in this perspective.
Invalidation point: 29.84
NAB Elliott Wave technical analysis
Function: Counter trend (Minuette degree, purple).
Mode: Corrective.
Structure: Regular Flat.
Position: Wave v-blue of Wave (c)-purple.
Details: The short-term outlook suggests that the ((iv))-green wave is unfolding with higher detail. This could potentially be a Flat Correction (3-3-5) pattern, with waves (a) and (b)-purple already completed. Now, wave (c)-purple is likely to unfold, pushing lower. It is subdividing into five smaller waves, with at least waves i-blue to iv-blue identified. This implies that wave v-blue is completing its role. Following this, we may see the return of the ((v))-green wave pushing higher.
Invalidation point: 33.67.
