COST Elliott Wave Technical Analysis
FUNCTION: Counter Trend
MODE: Corrective
STRUCTURE: Flat
POSITION: Wave (B) of 4
DIRECTION: Downside in wave (C)
DETAILS: Intermediate wave (B) may have completed around $1000. We expect more downside action to confirm the move lower in wave (C).

Costco’s daily Elliott Wave structure suggests the completion of wave (B) close to the psychological resistance level at $1000. If this holds, it sets the stage for wave (C) to begin on the downside. This movement would align with the ongoing larger correction under wave 4.

Wave (C) is expected to develop further as downward pressure increases, confirming the bearish correction. Market participants should monitor key support zones and watch for price rejection signals to validate the start of wave (C).
