Wave Counts:

  1. The primary (white/green) wave count is that minor 3 of major [1]-P3-C3 likely completed at 4236, just below where minor 3=2.0*minor at 4340 and at the 200-day SMA (4326). The minor 4 retrace targets are at the 23%/38% Fibs of 4187 to 4096. Wave 4 could form a triangle to alternate with the minor 2 zig-zag. Ultimately once the minor 4 wave completes, the minor 5 of major [1]-P3 wave should target the 4405 to 4496, where minor 5=minor 1. Note: The primary (white/green) count minor 4 of major [1] wave up remains valid above the minor 1 high of 3946. However, minor 4 should ideally hold the recent 4080 low, which is just below the 38% Fib at 4096.
  2. The alternate (blue) count is a slight variant of the primary (white/green) count that has minor 3 extending higher towards minor 3=2.23*minor 1 at 4411. This small dip from 4326 to 4253 would be a minute (4) or minor 3, with the minute (5) of minor 3 wave up above 4326 yet to come. Once minor 3 completes near 4411, minor 4 should retrace to the 23% Fib at 4252, before the minor 5=minor 1 end at 4562.
