NIKKEI Elliott Wave 1 hour chart

NIKKEI is doing correction that is unfolding as a 7 swings pattern. Pull back has ((w))((x))((y)) labeling. The price structure is incomplete at the moment, calling for a further weakness in near term toward : 32875-32439. We don’t recommend selling Nikkei and prefer the long side from the marked Blue Box ( buying zone). Once Nikkei reaches our buying area, it should ideally make either rally toward new highs or in 3 waves bounce alternatively. Once bounce reaches 50 Fibs against the ((x)) black high, we will make long position risk free ( put SL at BE) and take partial profits.

Red bearish stamp+ blue box = Selling Setup.
Green bullish stamp+ blue box = Buying Setup.
Charts with Black stamps are not tradable.

NIKKEI made extension toward our buying zone at : 32875-32439. The futures found buyers at the blue box as expected and we got good reaction from there. Bounce already reached 50 fibs against the ((x)) black connector which confirms cycle from the peak is done. Consequently, any long positions from the equal legs area should be risk free by now. As far as the price stays above 32700 low, we can see further strength in Nikkei.

Keep in mind that market is dynamic and presented view could have changed in the mean time.
