ELLIOTT WAVE COUNTS

BEARISH WAVE COUNTS

MAIN WEEKLY CHART

Silver weekly 2019
Click chart to enlarge.

This wave count is new this week.

It is possible that Super Cycle wave (b) is an incomplete regular flat correction.

Within the regular flat correction, cycle wave a subdivides well as a zigzag and cycle wave b subdivides well as a zigzag, which is a 0.96 correction of cycle wave a.

Cycle wave c must complete as a five wave structure. Within cycle wave c, primary waves 1 and 2 may be complete and primary wave 3 may be nearing completion. Primary wave 4 may not move into primary wave 1 price territory below 16.195.

Regular flat corrections often fit within parallel channels. Cycle wave c may end about resistance at the upper edge of the channel. The most common Fibonacci Ratio for cycle wave c within a regular flat would be equality in length with cycle wave a.

MAIN DAILY CHART

Cycle wave C may be subdividing as an impulse. Within the impulse, primary wave 3 may be nearing completion. A target is calculated for primary wave 3 to reach a common Fibonacci Ratio to primary wave 1.

Primary wave 3 may only subdivide as an impulse. Within the impulse, there is alternation between a zigzag of intermediate wave (2) and a running contracting triangle of intermediate wave (4).

Intermediate wave (5) to end primary wave 3 may exhibit a further increase in strength. It may exhibit one or more blow off tops as it completes.

Primary wave 4 may not move into primary wave 1 price territory below 16.195.

ALTERNATE WEEKLY CHART

This wave count is now an alternate for a bearish scenario.

It is possible that Super Cycle wave (b) is complete and Super Cycle wave (c) downwards has begun. Super Cycle wave (b) may fit as a regular contracting triangle.

Super Cyce wave (c) must subdivide as a five wave motive structure, most likely an impulse. Within the impulse, cycle wave I may be complete and cycle wave II may not move beyond the start of cycle wave I above 17.680.

ALTERNATE DAILY CHART

Cycle wave II may be a zigzag. Primary wave C may be an incomplete impulse.

Within the impulse of primary wave C, intermediate waves (1) through to (4) may be complete. Intermediate wave (5) may be incomplete.

Within intermediate wave (5), minor waves 1 through to 3 may be complete. Minor wave 4 may be complete as a small triangle. Only minor wave 5 may be now required to complete the structure at all degrees.

Minor wave 5 may end above 17.488, but it may not move above 17.680.

BULLISH WAVE COUNT

WEEKLY CHART

Silver Weekly 2019

This bullish Elliott wave count sees a new bull market beginning for Silver at the low in December 2015.

A new bull market should begin with a five wave structure upwards. This is labelled cycle wave I.

Following five steps forward should be three steps back. This is labelled cycle wave II. The Elliott wave corrective structure of cycle wave II is labelled as a double zigzag, which is a fairly common structure.

Cycle wave III may only subdivide as an impulse. Within the impulse, primary waves 1 and 2 may now be complete.

Primary wave 3 may only subdivide as an impulse. Within the impulse, intermediate waves (1) through to (4) may be complete.

The target for primary wave 3 remains the same.

Primary wave 4 may not move into primary wave 1 price territory below 16.195.
