In Elliott, once five waves are complete a market will always retrace part of the previous move in a three-wave pattern, or some variation thereof. Prices have come down to the midline of a parallel trendchannel formed by wave (1) down, and to the 200-day moving average, which many institutions and trend-followers watch closely. Also note the pattern in the Australia Dollar Index in the top panel of the chart. Historically the Australia Dollar has been perceived as a commodity-based currency, which at times will tend to move with gold, more or less. It appears that the Australian Dollar is mopping up the final subdivisions of a fourth wave triangle pattern (see EWP, p. 48). If so, the next move of consequence should be a sharp thrust to above .8000, which should roughly coincide with a gold rally.
