We retraced down as I predicted, finished the 3rd minor wave and retraced for a new wave at about $9300. In this moment we are facing a dilemma where two scenarios are equally possible.
The bullish one is that we finished a 4th major wave and now started the 5th, heading to $10500 (in cyan).
But, because the waves were not very clear recently, we might have as well already done the 4th and 5th major wave. As we are coming from a minor 12345 diagonal wave that formed a rising wedge, the present wave pattern could as well be a 12345 minor impulse wave pattern which will form the A wave from a ABC correction (in red). In this case, we would eventually form a new bear flag, retrace down and start the B wave at about $8700-8900, and then reach something like $8100.
Not enough data yet to tell which scenario will play out; but I think they are equally probable now, bulls waiting for confirmation at the upper resistance level. Which one do you vote?
I think I would prefer the bearish one, it would be even better for the bulls, because after that we should start a new 12345 pattern to send us up with higher momentum and volume.
There would be a third scenario, even more bearish, but I think not so likely to happen: that we would be in a major downtrend impulse pattern and just ending the first wave.
Nevertheless, the medium bearish scenario is very possible, since we exited the bottom line of the uptrend channel, the RSI is not yet oversold, and MACD lines tend to go to negative values, suggesting bears are about to take control; and they didn't insist too much recently, so they might have largely recovered their forces.
