Monthly Elliott Wave Chart of Platinum above shows that the metal has ended wave ((II)) at 562 on January 2020 low. The metal has turned higher in wave ((III)). Up from wave ((II)), wave (I) ended at 1348. Pullback from there was a clear 3 swing (corrective) and ended wave (II) at 796.8. The metal now needs to break above wave (I) at 1348 to rule out a double correction in wave (II). As far as pullback stays above wave (II) at 796.8, it can see further upside. Break below 796.8 suggests a double correction in wave (II) before the next leg higher.
