$OXY weekly Elliott Wave analysis Dec 18th 2022

OXY

The Weekly Chart above shows the cycle from October 2020 low unfold in 5 waves impulse structure that ended in August 2022 at blue (I) at $77.13. The stock then started a pullback to correct the cycle against October 2020 low in a Zig Zag structure (abc). The correction so far has completed the first and second leg. As long as price remains below red b at $76.10, it is expected that the next leg lower is taking place. Any bounces should find sellers until we reach the Blue Box area at $56.48 – 44.30. We like to buy dips in 3, 7 or 11 swings into blue boxes for a continuation to the upside as long as the October 2020 lows at $8.52 remains intact.
