Elliott Wave Principle

-
We all know the importance of Technical Analysis and how it works in today’s market. Technical tools like channels, Fibonacci retracements and oscillators like RSI, MACD etc do give us signals for when to buy and sell. Combining simple technicals along with advance technicals like Elliott wave and Gann Analysis always keep us one step ahead of the market movement.

Advance technical eradicate subjectivity and helps to take proper trading decisions. Today we shall see some important concepts of Elliott Wave theory.

In 1920 R.N. Elliott invented this theory and named Elliott Wave. He observed that there are thirteen patterns or waves that recur in market price data and are repetitive in form, but are not necessarily repetitive in amplitude or time.

We will now discuss some important concepts of Elliott wave theory
R. N Elliott has discovered 2 types of waves in the market
1. Motive or Impulse wave
2. Corrective Wave

1. Motive or Impulse waves

Elliott said that an impulse wave should have 5 waves in which 3 waves should decide the main direction of the trend while other 2 should be countertrend or corrective wave. By this he wanted to say that 3 waves will progress or regress but will tell you the main trend and the 3 waves are (1,3 &5). The other 2 which are corrective in nature will interrupt the main trend (2 &4).

There are some important rules to identify impulse waves
1.    Wave 2 which is a counter trend should not retrace the beginning of wave 1
2.    Wave 3 of all the motive waves should not be the shortest
3.    Wave 4 which is again a corrective wave should not overlap or enter in the territory of wave 1.

The above rules only apply for motive waves and not corrective.

 USDINR daily chart anticipated on May 6th 2023 USDINR daily chart happened on May 19th 2023 Analysis In my previous update I had mentioned for USDINR, " USDINR is expected to open positive possibilities once the level of 82.15 is taken out on the upside which can propel price towards 83.00 over short term and then any move above 83.00 will surge it towards 84.50-85.00 levels. However, any break below 81.40-81.00 levels will negate the upside view." There were cluster of supports near 81.40-81.00 levels and from there the pair has reversed thereby breaking 82.15 levels and made a high close to 83.00 levels - Anticipated Happened To view my previous article on USDINR, click on the below mentioned link https://www.marketanalysiswithmeghmody.com/2023/05/usdinr-at-multiple-supports-and-elliott.html As seen in the above daily chart, the pair has arrived near cluster of resistances which is also the consolidation zone formed from past 6-7 months. If prices move above this level whi

Nifty in Ending Diagonal Pattern?

 Nifty Daily chart Analysis Nifty is currently exhibiting a pattern of higher highs and higher lows, indicating a positive trend. While there is no immediate sign of reversal, there are indications suggesting that the current upward momentum may be losing steam. According to the Elliott Wave theory, there are signals suggesting the formation of a distribution pattern, specifically an ending diagonal pattern. However, this pattern is still unfolding, with one leg remaining on the upside, potentially pushing the index to new all-time highs within the range of 22300-22400 levels. Once this leg concludes, there could be a reversal in the trend. In summary, Nifty is anticipated to climb further from its current levels and may reach a new all-time high in the range of 22300-22400. However, after reaching this peak, a reversal could occur, potentially leading the index down to the range of 18000-19000 levels.

Gold prices are moving higher after making a low of $1800 levels and yesterday it closed well above $1930 levels and it is on the brink to cross its previous swing high, which will indicate that the trend is firmly positive. According to Wave theory, prices completed wave a at $1809 levels and has started moving higher in wave b which is also a corrective structure thereby forming a flat pattern, prices can move towards 80% (minimum) which comes to $2025-2030 levels and maximum it can go till 123.6%-138.2%.
