Wave Counts:

  1. The primary (white/green) wave count is the completion of minor 1 of major [1]-P3-C3 as a leading diagonal at 4100, where minute (5)>(3)>(1). The minor 2 wave completed at 3764 just below the 50% Fib of 3796. The minor 3 wave up is underway with a minimum target of minor 3 = 1.23*minor 1 at 4512. Within minor 3, the minute (1) of minor 3 wave ended at 4195. The minute (2) wave pull-back reached 3809, which is the 88% Fib area of 3815. Wave minute (3) up is underway headed for (3)=1.38(1) at 4339. Within minute (1), wave i of minute (3) completed at 4133. Wave ii-(3) completed at 4049, just above the 38% Fib at 4032. Holding the 38% during a wave ii is very bullish. Wave iii-(3) is underway with a very conservative target at iii=0.78i at 4302. Note: The primary (white/green) count as labeled is valid above 4049.
