Analysis

The fifth wave of larger degree (5) is presumably developing on the daily chart, with wave 3 of (5) formed as its part. Apparently, a descending correction is developing as the fourth wave 4 of (5) on the H4 chart, with waves a of 4 and b of 4 formed as its parts. Wave c of 4 has started developing on the H1 chart, within which the first wave of smaller degree (i) of c has formed and a local corrective wave (ii) of c is unfolding. If the presumption is correct, XAU/USD will continue falling to 2418.82 – 2304.21 after the correction is over. The level of 2728.40 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the pair to continue rising to the levels of 2792.47 – 2880.00.
