4. Algochirp Elliott Wave analysis - details
Long term view
GRAB, which has been in a multi-year consolidation, has just broken out with significant volume. It appears this could be the start of a meaningful impulse wave.
Overall sectoral tailwinds (e.g., Uber, Tesla Robotaxi) are likely to further support a substantial rise in GRAB.
However, it is prudent to wait for a retest; in Elliott Wave terms, this would be the upcoming Wave 2. This retracement (see Chart #2) is expected to see prices correct and retest some of the long-standing trendlines. If it manages to hold its August 2024 bottom, then we must 'grab' GRAB!"
Short term view
Over the past few weeks, Grab jumped higher on Earnings beat and popped about 18% in a matter of days.
There is long term resistance in the $5-$5.5 band and that is where the current ongoing Wave 1 (Primary) may terminate. Wave 5 (Minute) of Wave 5 (Intermediate) of this ongoing Wave 1 (Primary) is still to go.
This Wave 1 top should be followed by a Wave 2 (Primary) and drag the prices lower. High probability target is the long term trend line at around $3.9, which night also coincide with 61% retracement levels (actual levels will depend on Wave 1 top).
Grab is potentially a multi-bagger in the making and the Wave count is following the hypothesis.
