Gregor Horvat Wavetraders

IOTA with ticker IOTUSD made sharp and impulsive rally at the end of 2024, which we see it as a first leg (A)(1) of a bigger recovery in minimum three waves (A)(1)-(B)(2)-(C)(3). Since the beginning of 2025, Crypto market slowed down and IOTA made a deep retracement, but in three legs ABC with an ending diagonal/wedge pattern into wave C, which indicates for a correction in wave (B)(2).

IOTUSD daily chart

Well, it nicely bounced recently, making a clean five-wave impulse away from projected 78,6% Fibonacci support and back above channel resistance line, so it can be wave 1 of a new five-wave bullish cycle within higher degree wave (C) or (3). That said, after current pullback in wave 2, be aware of more gains for wave 3 of a five-wave bullish cycle that can send the price back to December 2024 highs this year.
