If the 5 waves up that you see overlapped is correctly labeled an ending diagonal, your target should be well exceeded. But I have come to know the salmon can be drained from the bear's stream quite quickly.
strong rebound. not sure if the low was in. the normal pattern would like this.

For those looking at the chart and trying to apply EW Theory, that middle wave before the drop is an overlapping 5 wave move. If that is right (it is) then the drop should have been a wave 1 down and this rally should not hold.
Now for the caveat. There is no such thing as a 5-5-5 wave. Never saw one in my life UNTIL 2009. I have often said EW is broken and even gamed by the algos. We held a parallel channel, which is common before a 3rd wave starts. For the bears to have control of the game it needs to close below this recent low. I have a 62% retracement at 132.71. We really shouldn't be able to do that much of a retracement with a 5th wave failure preceding a drop.
The one on the left has a move up before that sharp drop looking like a slow, 3 wave move. This one in the middle looks like a 5 wave move. I guess we'll know by the end of the day if it matters anymore. It used to very much matter.
