Short Term Elliott Wave view in FTSE suggests the rally from 4/20 low (7096.6) is unfolding as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure where Minute wave ((a)) ended at 7302.57 and Minute wave ((b)) ended at 7197.28. Subdivision of Minute wave ((a)) is unfolding as an impulse where Minuttte wave (i) ended at 7134.53, Minutte wave (ii) ended at 7104.22, Minutte wave (iii) ended at 7290.82, Minutte wave (iv) ended at 7262.32, and Minutte wave (v) of ((a)) ended at 7302.57. Index has since broken above 7302.57 suggesting Minutte wave ((c)) has started.

Minute wave ((c)) is currently in progress as an ending diagonal where Minutte wave (i) ended at 7280.7, Minutte wave (ii) ended at 7222.81, Minutte wave (iii) ended at 7398.58, and Minutte wave (iv) ended at 7369.23. Index has reached 1.236 extension of the Minute ((a)) – ((b)) and thus minimum requirement has been met for Minor wave 1 to complete and cycle from 4/20 low to end, although a marginal high still can’t be ruled out at this stage. Expect Index to correct cycle from 4/20 low soon within Minor wave 2 in 3, 7, or 11 swing before the rally resumes. We don’t like selling the proposed pullback and expect buyers to appear again when Minor wave 2 pullback is over in 3, 7, or 11 swing.
