Short term Elliott Wave in Nikkei (NKD) suggests that cycle from 1.3.2023 low is progressing as a 5 waves Elliott Wave impulse. Up from 1.3.2023 low, wave 1 ended at 28715 and pullback in wave 2 ended at 26285. Wave 3 rally ended at 31695 as 1 hour chart below shows. Dips in wave 4 unfolded as a double three Elliott Wave structure.  Down from wave 3, wave (a) ended at 31180 and rally in wave (b) ended at 31405. Wave (c) lower ended at 31075 and this ended wave ((w)). Rally in wave ((x)) completed at 31450. Index resumed lower again in wave ((y)) with internal subdivision as a double three in lesser degree.

Down from wave ((x)), wave (w) ended at 30940 and rally in wave (x) ended at 31155. Decline in wave (y) ended at 30634 which completed wave ((y)) of 4. Index has since turned higher in wave 5. Up from wave 4, wave (i) ended at 31200 and pullback in wave (ii) ended at 30945. Index rallies again in wave (iii) towards 31345 and pullback in wave (iv) ended at 31185. Expect Index to extend higher to end wave (v) of ((i)). Afterwards, it should pullback in wave ((ii)) to correct cycle from 5.31.2023 low in 3, 7, or 11 swing before the rally resumes. Near term, as far as pivot at 30634 low stays intact, expect pullback to find support in 3, 7, 11 swing for further upside.
