Last time when we discussed about XU100, we were looking to end an impulse to complete wave (III) and expect 3, 7 or 11 swings retracement into wave ((4)) zone before continuing to rally. This rally widened almost 70% since the first days of July. This has caused us to adjust the count because wave V has extended, and it is not completed yet.

XU100 DAILY CHART OCTOBER 2022

We can see on October chart, that the impulse we called wave V of (III) on the XU100, turned out to be just wave ((1)) of V. Wave ((1)) ended at 2684 and wave ((2)) made a zigzag correction to end at 2426. The uptrend continued to reach 3715 to end wave ((3)). Then the retracement of wave ((4)) made a double correction that ended at 3240, retracing almost 50% of wave ((3)).

We are currently building wave ((5)) of V which could bring a strong pullback taking the index below 3200. Near term, we are developing wave (3) of ((5)). Then we need a wave (4) and (5) to complete the cycle before thinking in a pullback. The correction could begin at any time, but now we could see the index to reach around 4130 to complete wave (III). Then we should see 3, 7, or 11 swings lower as wave (IV) before resuming the rally again.
