Once wave 1 finishes, the market is expected to undergo a corrective phase in wave 2. This retracement will adjust the cycle from the March 31, 2026 low before the broader uptrend resumes. In the near term, as long as the pivot at 6367 remains intact, pullbacks are likely to attract buyers. These corrections should unfold in either three or seven swings, offering opportunities for continuation to the upside.
