Lordstown Motors Elliottwave View:
Medium term term view from the Inception in July 2020. There is a clear 5 waves impulse that peaked on 9/22/2020 @ 31.80, Red I. After that, the stock took a much needed breather with a fairly sharp correction. This correction took shape in an ABC 3 swings and reached the blue box extreme area where buyers entered. The blue box, is an equal leg area, where Algo’s can be programmed to enter the market (at 100% equal leg measured move). More often than not, the blue boxes provide good opportunities to enter the market.
After setting a low at 12.80 on 10/30/2020 in Red II, the stock has rallied impulsively. Currently, it is favoured to be in a blue (3) before moving higher to complete the sequence from the 10/30 low. After that, a 3, 7 or 11 swing correction should take place, to correct the cycle from the 10/30 low. In short, this stock, and company, look to be making some great moves in the future. The technical picture supports the view that a bullish nest can take shape, after which, a strong impulsive rally can take hold in the future.
