Elliott Waves Analysis can be a powerful tool in the hands of an alert trader. A few days back, I had suggested that Hindustan Dorr Oliver stock (NSEI:HDRR) Was set to roar having already completed a five wave down move and looked ready for a bullish triangle breakout. Well, the stock has delivered with the upside breakout from the triangle, and reached a high of INR 15.65, which is well over 20% up from the level of 12.53 it was trading at on the day Wave Times presented the analysis to you. Take a look at the Elliott Wave chart below to see how it turned out.
Unfortunately, the company has also delivered some bad news! And it is trading down from the recent highs. Elliott Wave fans are anxiously asking whether we will be able to rally back, because we had suggested a target of nearly INR 18. What is the outlook for Hindustan Dorr Oliver from here, they ask. Well, the way I use Elliott Waves is to use a count till it is useful, and then look elsewhere for new opportunities. But I can say that there still exists a chance for a recovery because we have come down by 50% of the latest 3rd wave within the fifth wave. Maybe we are in the process of completing wave 4 after which we will get one more recovery? Also, the upper boundary of the bullish triangle, where there were several tops, will now act as a support. Only a close below that upper trend line will cause a bout of anxiety, and perhaps a revisit of the Elliott Wave counts. We shall see.
