Gold Elliott wave Technical analysis
Function: Trend
Mode: Impulse
Structure: Impulse wave
Position: Wave (v) of 3
Direction: Wave 4 pullback
Details: Anticipation of a wave 4 dip, paving the way for further advancements in wave 5. The possibility remains that wave 3 could extend further, indicating that the bullish momentum in gold prices is far from over.
The analysis of gold prices through the Elliott Wave lens reveals a robust bullish pattern across various chart timeframes, consistently setting new benchmarks beyond previous all-time highs. The inception of this bullish phase can be traced back to December 2015, marking the end of a 51-month bearish correction that spanned from August 2011 to December 2015. This correction phase was succeeded by an expansive bullish impulse that began in August 1999 and lasted for an impressive 144 months. Prior to this, the gold market experienced a bearish correction phase that stretched over 236 months starting from January 1980, following a bullish trend that originated in the 1970s. This cyclical nature of gold prices, characterized by alternating waves of impulse and correction, suggests that the current bullish wave, now over 100 months in duration, is likely to continue based on historical patterns.

Transitioning to the H4 timeframe, the culmination of wave 3, especially its final leg marked as wave (v) of the third blue wave, is evident with the breach above the 2300 medium level. Price movements are currently fluctuating between the 2300 and 2500 medium levels. Should wave 3 wrap up its final stages, a retracement to wave 4 around the 2300 level is anticipated before a resurgence towards 2500 in wave 5. This scenario presents a strategic buying opportunity during the dip of wave 4, especially near the 2300 mark.
