ELLIOTT WAVE COUNTS

BEARISH WAVE COUNT

MONTHLY CHART

There is less historical data for Silver than Gold. The wave count for Silver sees a second wave correction unfolding where Gold sees a fourth wave. Either way, the structure may be incomplete for both. Gold and Silver usually have somewhat different wave counts and see major highs and lows at different times.

This wave count sees Super Cycle wave (a) as a complete five wave impulse. Super Cycle wave (b) may not move beyond its start above 49.752.

Super Cycle wave (b) may be an incomplete regular flat.

Super Cycle wave (c) would most likely move below the end of Super Cycle wave (a) at 13.569 to avoid a truncation.

Super Cycle wave (b) may be 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 through to 4 may be complete. If it continues any further, then 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.

It would be extremely likely, for this wave count, for cycle wave c to move at least slightly above the end of cycle wave a at 21.062 to avoid a truncation.

Within cycle wave c, primary waves 1 and 3 both lasted 14 weeks, one longer than a Fibonacci 13. Primary wave 5 may be a little shorter in length. It may last a total Fibonacci 8 or 13 weeks.

Cycle wave C may be subdividing as an impulse. Within the impulse, primary waves 1 to 4 may now be complete.

If it continues any further, then primary wave 4 may not move into primary wave 1 price territory below 16.195.

Primary wave 2 lasted 69 sessions and subdivided as a deep 0.82 double zigzag. If it is complete as labelled, then primary wave 4 may have exhibited some alternation as a single zigzag and more shallow at 0.51 of primary wave 3.

Primary wave 4 may be more brief than primary wave 2; fourth waves for Silver tend to be more brief than counterpart second waves.

BULLISH WAVE COUNT

This bullish wave count looks at the possibility that the bear market may be over for Silver and a new bull market may have begun.

Grand Super Cycle wave II may be a complete double zigzag. Within this structure, there is a typically brief and shallow super cycle wave (x). The brevity of this X wave is acceptable within this structure.

If Grand Super Cycle wave II is complete, then a new substantial bull market may be in the very early stages for silver.

WEEKLY CHART

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 through to 3 may now be complete.

Cycle wave III must move beyond the end of cycle wave I above 21.062. Cycle wave III must move far enough above this point to allow room for cycle wave IV to unfold and remain above cycle wave I price territory.

DAILY CHART

Both Elliott wave counts now expect a primary degree fourth wave has completed and a primary degree fifth wave has begun. At this stage, both bull and bear wave counts are the same for the short to mid term. The targets for the next upwards movement are different.
