-
Mode: Motive.
-
Structure: Impulse Wave.
-
Position: Wave 4 (Grey).
-
Direction: Mini Decline.
Details:
- The bearish trend remains in force, heading towards the completion of wave [c] of a flat wave 4.
-
Wave 4 is expected to bottom between $46.02 and $47.38, aligning with the most common Fibonacci retracement levels for wave 4 (38.2% & 50%) and the 200 EMA, which acts as support.

After the wave 4 bottom, a 5th wave rally is anticipated, pushing prices above the origin of wave 4.
-
Invalidation Level: Any decline below $44.00 raises doubts about the current Elliott Wave count.
