NVDA Elliott Wave technical analysis – Daily chart

The analysis indicates that NVIDIA has likely reached a top in wave (5), failing to find support on top of the medium-grade level (MG1) at $100. This failure suggests further downside potential. A clear break and subsequent retest of the trendline (TL1) at $100 would provide additional confidence in the bearish outlook for the longer term.

The shorter time frame suggests the possibility of a bounce within wave B or wave 2, which could provide a temporary relief rally before the continuation of the downward move.
