Facebook At Key Inflection Point

By Carolyn Boroden, ElliottWaveTrader.net

Facebook Inc. FB has rallied from our recent buy set-up, bouncing off our Fibonacci price projection zone just above $200, triggering a buy entry.  The potential target, if that $200 level is a more important low, is the 1.272 extension at the $230 area. The initial definition of risk was below the recent low made into the support zone.

Although I do believe that the 1.272 target is possible, FB is currently moving into what I like to call a hurdle. If the setup is going to play out fully, FB needs to clear an important zone of resistance in the 212.76-215.36 area.

This zone includes a .618 retracement of the prior swing, along with a 100% projection of a prior rally swing.

If we do push through this zone, the odds increase for a continued rally towards the upside target at the 230 area.

A failure to clear this same key zone leaves us vulnerable to more downside instead.

Consider it an inflection point and trade accordingly.
