AMZN Elliott Wave 1 Hour Chart 05.15.2026

AMZN stock is currently developing a wave (2) pullback. From the 278.61 high, price action shows a clear sequence of incomplete swings, indicating that the correction remains in progress. We expect 3 waves bounce in ((b)) and another leg lower to complete the 7 swings structure.

The Blue Box buying zone stands at 254.8–244.9. We recommend that members avoid selling, as the broader trend remains firmly bullish. From this area, we anticipate at least a 3-wave bounce.

Once price reaches the 50% Fibonacci retracement against the red X connector, positions will be made risk-free by moving the stop-loss to breakeven while securing partial profits. The stop-loss is placed just below the 1.618 Fibonacci extension at 244.91.
