Nike (ticker: NKE) shows incomplete bearish sequence from the all-time high 11.5.2021 high as well as from 3.30.2022 high. The ideal and minimum target for this bearish sequence is around 77. The right side therefore remains to the downside and rally should fail in 3, 7, or 11 swing.

Near term, the Elliott Wave view on Nike (NKE) suggests that cycle from 9.13.2022 high is in progress as a 5 waves impulse. Down from 9.13.2022 high, wave (1) ended at 94 and rally in wave (2) ended at 99.89. Nike then resumed lower in wave (3) with internal subdivision as another impulse in lesser degree. Down from wave (2), wave 1 ended at 94.48 and wave 2 ended at 98.32. Wave 3 ended at 82.33, wave 4 ended at 86.20 and final leg lower wave 5 ended at 82.15 which completed wave (3). Wave (4) rally is in progress as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure. Up from wave (3), wave A ended at 86.47 and pullback in wave B ended at 85.25.

Final leg higher wave C is expected to complete at 89.5 – 92.12 area and this should end wave ((4)) as well. This is a 100% – 161.8% Fibonacci extension of wave A. From this area, the stock can resume lower in wave (5). Near term, as far as pivot at 99.9 high stays intact, expect rally to fail in 3, 7, or 11 swing for further downside.
