Elliott Wave Structure
Wave 2 unfolded as a Flat correction — a sideways, range-bound structure.
Wave 4 appears to be forming a contracting triangle, offering alternation in both form and function, a hallmark of a balanced motive sequence.
Triangles often conclude near major fundamental catalysts — and tonight’s Bank of England (BOE) interest rate decision and board meeting could be the precise trigger that completes Wave E and launches Wave 5.
Key Technical Zones
Wave E Support Zone:
– 1.8453 (61.8% retracement of Wave C vs. A)
– 1.8212 (23.6% retracement of Wave 3)
Breakout Level:
– A decisive move above 1.8780, the upper triangle boundary, would signal the completion of the triangle and the beginning of Wave 5.
Wave 5 Fibonacci Target:
– 2.0473 (61.8% extension of Wave 1 projected from Wave 4 termination)
Trading Insight
What makes triangle patterns attractive is their tendency to build compression and release with momentum. A confirmed thrust from Wave E, followed by a clean breakout through the upper trendline, could signal the beginning of a powerful upside move toward our projected target at 2.0473.
This setup aligns both structurally and fundamentally, creating an excellent potential opportunity — especially for swing traders focused on structure-based entries and high risk-reward profiles.
📅 BOE Watch
Keep a close eye on the BOE announcement. Triangles often complete with news-driven volatility, and this release could mark the end of Wave E and spark Wave 5’s vertical lift-off.
