L’Oréal Monthly Elliott Wave Analysis 08.02.2020
The monthly chart below shows the L’Oréal stock $OR listed at Euronext. From the all-time lows, first, the stock price has developed a cycle higher in wave (I) of a super cycle degree. It is clearly an impulsive move consisting of 5 subwaves. Thereafter, a correction lower in wave (II) has unfolded as an Elliott Wave expanded flat pattern. It is a 3-3-5 pattern which has printed an important bottom on February 2009 at 46.5.
From the February 2009 lows, l’Oréal has accomplished an impressive rally in a cycle higher. This rise shows an extension of more than 2.0 multiples in relation to the length of the wave (I). Hence, it qualifies the cycle higher to become the wave (III). It has ended in February 2020 at 278.5.
L’Oréal Weekly Elliott Wave Analysis 08.02.2020
The weekly chart below shows in more detail the topping action of the wave (III) and the further development of the $OR stock. From February 2020 highs at 278.5, a sharp corection lower in wave (IV) has retraced a respectable part of the motive cycle higher towards March lows at 195.70. Technically speaking, the decline can be seen as an Elliott Wave zigzag correction. From the March lows, the price has quickly recovered towards new all-time highs within the red wave I of the blue wave (V).
Since the wave (III) has shown an extension, a usual target for the wave (V) to end would be 1.0-1.618 multiples of the wave (I). The minimum target of 292.17 has been already reached. Even though it is time to become a bit cautious, nobody should even try fading an impulse by selling $OR. Still, more upside can be expected before wave (V) might end and a larger correction will take place.
L’Oréal Daily Elliott Wave Analysis 08.02.2020
The daily chart below shows in more detail the internals of the red wave I. The advance higher is looking so far as 3 waves up. The wave ((3)) has not reached the equality with the first leg up in wave ((1)) at 308.13. Currently, wave ((4)) to correct the wave ((3)) is underway. Once bottommed, wave ((5)) should extend higher to end the march cycle in wave I. Based on the major world indices showing a topping behavior, the cycle higher from March lows may end soon. Thereafter, a pullback in red wave II should find support in 3, 7 or 11 swings above March lows at 195.70. From there, expect rally in wave III of (V) to new all-time highs or a bounce in 3 waves at least.
As a general observation, L’Oréal is showing an obviously motive cycle from the all-time lows, investors will do well when waiting for clear pullbacks and buying dips in 3, 7 or 11 swings.
