Position: Position unclear (the correction reaches into wave 1 territory, so not wave 4)

Note: Nested: leg W is itself a combination, its X is 37.3% (at most 88.7%).

Note: Structure ambiguous: leg W, Y can also be read as three- or five-part.

Elliott count calculated automatically by fixed Elliott rules, not investment advice – display only, our buy zones do not use it. Provisional: The count can change with new candles.

Scenarios

Timeframe 4 hours · As of Oct 27, 2026 · from the Elliott count in the analysis chart

Weighting Main scenario: ahead (3 of 3 guidelines, strong) · Alternative: behind (2 of 2, strong)

Weighting by guidelines met – not a probability.

Main scenario

ahead strong · 3 of 3 guidelines

As long as the 4-hour close stays above the end of Y, this applies: complex countermove downward (Nested combination), Y complete – count points to rising prices.

Invalid if the 4-hour close is below the end of Y

Alternative

behind strong · 2 of 2 guidelines

If that breaks, the second reading no longer applies either: sharp countermove downward in three waves (Zigzag A-B-C), C complete – then there is no valid count for now; the next candles will produce a new one.

Invalid if the 4-hour close is below the end of C
