Elliott Wave analysis: Apple set to complete impulsive rally from January 21 low [Video]
|The cycle from the January 21, 2026 low in Apple (AAPL) is unfolding as a five‑wave Elliott Wave impulse. From that low, wave 1 advanced to $268.34, followed by a corrective pullback in wave 2 that terminated at $252.12. The stock then resumed its upward trajectory in wave 3. Within this third wave, wave ((i)) concluded at $261.90, while the subsequent pullback in wave ((ii)) ended at $255. Momentum strengthened thereafter, carrying the stock higher in wave ((iii)) toward $279.50. A modest dip in wave ((iv)) found support at $273.50, before the final leg, wave ((v)), reached $280.90. This marked the completion of wave 3 at a higher degree.
Wave 4 unfolded as a zigzag correction. Declining from the wave 3 peak, wave ((a)) ended at $276.28. A brief rally in wave ((b)) followed, topping at $278.47. The final leg, wave ((c)), extended lower to $271.70, thereby completing wave 4 at the higher degree. With this correction in place, expectations turn toward the development of wave 5, which should extend the impulse sequence further to the upside. A decisive break above the wave 3 peak would strengthen the probability of continued gains against the January 21 low. In the near term, as long as the pivot at $252.12 remains intact, pullbacks are likely to attract buyers. These retracements may unfold in either three or seven swings, offering opportunities for renewed strength and continuation of the broader upward cycle.
