FCPO. Currently within the range of a bull trap.We observed a price rally that surpassed the extreme swing high of Wave 3. However, at this point, we are only seeing a three-wave advance from the low of Wave 4. It is premature to conclude that Wave 4 has bottomed.
To manage our expectations and account for both scenarios, it remains possible that Wave 4 has not yet reached its bottom.
The alternate count (in purple) suggests the probability of a bull trap being in play.
FCPO1! trade ideas
FCPO. REJECTION AT 38.2%.Following the guidelines in Elliott Wave Theory, "The Right Look" we adjust our wave labeling because the proportion of wave 4 is too large to fit within the subwave structure.
It is a good sign that the price is rejecting decline at the Fibonacci 38.2% level.
Our focus now is on the development of Wave 5. The last wave to complete the Motive cycle.
Invalidation for this idea is at 3872.
Refering to Elliott Wave rules for Wave 5:
"Wave 5 always subdivides into an impulse or a diagonal"
We would expect rallies toward the 4000 area in a classic motive wave structure.
Another possible scenario to consider is the truncation of Wave 5, given that Wave 3 is an extended wave. Truncation happen when Wave 5 fail to move beyond the extreme swing high of Wave 3
Bottom line:
If Wave 4 has ended and Wave 5 is in the early stages of development, any retracement is limited to the 3872 level. Trading below this level will require reassessment of the wave structure.
FCPO. CORRECTIVE PHASEDTime-consuming sideways movement, tight ranges, and numerous overlaps are all characteristics of a corrective wave.
Sideways corrections often tend to retrace 38.2% of the previous impulse wave, particularly when they occur as wave 4. We wait here when the price reaches this level.
We will continue to detail the structure once we have a clear picture. For now, let’s sit back and rilex.
FCPO. HIGHER TO COMPLETE WAVE 3 CYCLEPrice reached 2.618 fibonacci relationship compare to wave 1.
Evaluation based on market structure, we see an extension wave 5 within wave (3) rally.
If wave (3) has ended at fibonacci 2.618 area, we expect to see a 3 wave decline for wave (4) correction.
Elliott Wave Theory:
GUIDELINE OF ALTERNATION WITHIN AN IMPLUSE
" If wave two of an impulse is a sharp correction, expect wave four to be a sideways correction, and vice versa. "
Looking at our price chart, Wave (2) already unfold into a flat pattern and flat pattern is a side way correction. We can expect to see a sharp correction pattern for Wave (4)
BEHAVIOR FOLLOWING FIFTH WAVE EXTENSIONS
" ..when the fifth wave of an advance is an extension, the ensuing correction will be sharp and find support at the level of the low of wave two of the extension. Sometimes the correction ends there and sometimes only wave A ends there... Additional value is provided by the fact that fifth wave extensions are typically followed by swift retracements. "
Projection area and pattern for wave (4) retracement using Elliott Wave Theory for alternation and fifth wave extension theory, expecting to see a sharp correction in wave (4) toward 3900-3880 area.
Bottom line:
Short term view, looking for significant retracement for a sign that wave (3) rally has ended.
Long term view, we are still aiming higher to complete wave 3 cycle on a larger degree.
Trading above yesterday high will required reassesment on the structure.
FCPO. I AM WRONG IN MY PREVIOUS WAVE COUNT.One of the five ways the wave principle improves trading, wave analysis provides a specific point of invalidation, which is the level at which an interpretation is no longer viable.
Knowing when you are wrong is perhaps a trader’s most important piece of information.
Market always right, it was my previous operative wave count is incorrect.
Adjusting to the current structure, wave 3 of 3 already reach 1.618 fibonacci relationship compare to wave 1.
Currently, there is no sign of significant retracement that telling wave 3 of 3 is complete. For now, we still aim high. Next reasonable target is 2.618 fibonacci level where wave 3 is an extended wave.
Let's see what the market will offer us for next week.
Accept failure but never give up, it is part of the process to become a consistently successful
trader!
FCPO. DOUBLE ZIGZAG FORMATION IDEAReassesment of the current wave structure after price break our invalidation level of our previous idea.
As for now, my personal best idea that can be derived from the current market structure is that maybe we area looking at double zigzag formation for november contract.
Invalidation for this idea = 3698
FCPO - THE MOMENT OF TRUTHWe got our 5 wave down and 3 wave up.
But currently price is trading near our invalidation level.
As for now, Elliott rules for impusle wave still hold where wave 2 can never retrace 100% of wave 1.
Trading above our invalidation level would invalidate the current wave analysis, requiring a reassessment of the wave structure.
Alternate count idea:
extreme low of today morning trading session can be lable as wave 4 end point and the upside rally in today trading session as wave 5.
FCPO - 5 WAVE DOWN, NEXT 3 WAVE UP!Continue from previous post.
We can see a clear 5 sub-wave structure was observed during evening session. This motive movement to the downside and trading below 3686 strengthen the idea that wave C has complete.
*** 5 Wave structure on 1 minute chart.
Next, we would like to see a retracement that potentially will bring back price to 3700 area for sub-wave 2.
Invalidation for this wave analysis = 3734.
Let's see what the market will offer us next week.
Happy holiday to All FCPO trader!
FCPO - WAVE 5 OF C TOPPED?Continue working with the hypothesis that a running flat was forming in FCPO:
We have a clear 5 wave structure advance from extreme low of Wave B giving us indication that wave C maybe complete.
If Wave C topped and Running Flat pattern is complete, then we would like to see a downward movement of price toward 3686 level in a motive sequence before we start formulating a trading plan for this pattern.
Invalidation level is for this idea set at wave C extreme high = 3734.
FCPO - FLAT FORMATION FOR WAVE 4Working on the idea of flat pattern in play for wave 4 formation on a larger degree.
Currently we are in the last wave formation, wave c of flat pattern.
Rules for Flat Formation:
1. A flat always subdivides into three waves.
2. Wave A is never a triangle.
3. Wave C is always an impulse or a diagonal.
4. Wave B always retraces at least 90 percent of wave A.
Journey FCPO. Part 4So what now to do? We want to make sure price break HH. If that happen, find entry around H for sharp entry. Or if you are too lazy and can bear with floating, have big margin/ equity just use H as your entry point. Hope my explanation in part 1 till now help you guys understand trading using SNR/ SND better. Let’s success together. Drop some comment if you find this helpful.
FCPO Week 31 2024: Waiting for break thorugh.Last week, prices moved within a narrow range between 3900 and 4000. Unless there is a significant move that breaks through this range, either higher or lower, the market will likely remain neutral. This week, pay special attention to this range, particularly the levels closer to 4000, as a breakout in this area could signal a strong market move.
FCPO Week 30 2024: Slight bullish potential.Last week, it was anticipated that the price would retrace higher before moving lower. However, this did not materialize. The 3900 to 4000 range remains a critical area, with the price continuing to move within this band. Currently, forecasting the outlook is challenging, but based on recent price reactions, the market appears to favor the bulls. Next week, we will be looking for opportunities to buy, anticipating that the price will move higher.
