Wave 3: In Elliott Wave Theory,
Wave three is usually the largest and most powerful wave in a rising trend that moves through 5 waves.
Although some research suggests that in commodity markets, wave five is the largest move that fully completes the re-rate.
As wave three starts, the news is probably still a little bearish, (as was the situation with RR at the beginning of its rise) and some market players remain negative; but by wave three’s midpoint, “the crowd” will join the new bullish trend.
When we reach the midpoint of wave 3 the news is now turning positive and closer inspection of the underlying fundamental analysts start to aggressively raise price estimates.
Prices then rise quickly, and any dips are short-lived and shallow. Anyone looking to “get in on a pullback” will likely miss the boat.
Buying at the start of a wave 3 move once the technical confirmation has been received tends to deliver 'outsized gains' vs those initial moves up from the support levels seen in the first wave.
