I was a bit baffled as to why the last leg up ended in what appears to be an EDT... so I did some homework and this is what I came up with.\:
I have wave-2 in this series off the 1810 lows as a running fractal lasting some 139 trading days. I was a bit surprised when wave-4 ended so quickly, but because it appeared to have the wave structure of a contracting diagonal triangle, which is a typical fractal for a wave-4, so I accepted it as shorter in time - which lacked symmetry within the wave.
If wave-4 was over, it seems to have had quite a bit of struggle just getting back up to even the previous wave-b:a:4 pivot of ~2801, and then the EDT of the last wave up just smells of fatigue.
So I am still left with the thought that wave-4 is not yet complete... if this is true, then consider:
-Wave-a:4 (longest leg) was from ~2817 - ~2477 for a length of 340-points.
-Wave-b:4 at its height of ~2817 was exactly .776 x wave-a (longest) @ 264-points
-If wave-c:4 = wave-a (longest), then we could expect to see wave-4 complete at ~2477
-If wave-c:4 = .618a (longest), then we could expect to see wave-4 complete at ~2607
-If wave-c:4 = wave-c:a (the shorter leg), then we could expect to see wave-4 complete at ~2569
The confluence of the UTL and the highest of the targets (2607) seems to hit in the third week of August (8/23), which would also be approximately equal to the 139 TDs (8/16 actual)...
Just throwing this out there... the CDT is still a valid interpretation, and this pause could simply be the end of wave-i:V , with wave-ii in work now, and then right back up to new ATHs on the next thrust... time will tell.
Happy weekend to all here!
