Claude Opus 4.8 · elliot-wave-analyst-v4beta4-slim (v4.0-beta4-slim) · Report generated Saturday, 27 June 2026, 22:45 EEST
Overview
Last close: €101.12 (26 June 2026). Primary count: BNP Paribas SA is in a strong multi-year Primary-degree bull (the post-2023 European-bank re-rating) and printed a fresh high at €103.00 (25 Jun 2026); the advance from the €78.83 low (23 Mar 2026) is Intermediate (5) up, with price above a rising SMA-200 (€84.13). Above €78.83 the uptrend holds; the main risk is late-cycle exhaustion near the highs.

SMA(18) side note (descriptive only): trend is rising on the short SMA-18; the last two daily bars' lows are not below it and the highs are above it; price is above the rising SMA-200 (€84.13). This note does not affect the wave count or scenario probabilities.
3 · Executive Summary
Wave position: Intermediate (5) up within a multi-year Primary bull; the 23 Mar 2026 low (€78.83) anchors the leg and a new high (€103.00) was just set.
Key signal: Price is above a rising SMA-200 (€84.13) - the post-2023 bank re-rating trend remains firmly intact.
Top target: Continuation projects €106-€118; shallow pullbacks toward €97.3 should hold.
Biggest risk: A fifth wave near the highs is vulnerable; a break of €78.83 voids the bullish count.
Confidence: Medium-high on trend, lower on remaining upside given the mature wave position.
4 · Current Position in the Cycle
BNP Paribas SA remains in a strong Primary-degree bull. After the Intermediate (4) low at €78.83 (23 Mar 2026) it rallied to a fresh high of €103.00 (25 Jun 2026) as wave (5). The current direction is up with a shallow pullback in progress; price holds above the rising SMA-200, and the advance is mature but intact above €78.83.

Next objective
€106 -> €112 -> €118
Confidence rationale: Price above a rising SMA-200, a clean impulse into new highs, and the intact post-2023 bank re-rating support the bullish wave. Counter-evidence: this is a fifth wave at multi-year highs, where exhaustion risk rises; watch for bearish RSI/UO divergence.
Alternate count (30%): the advance is more extended and recent action is wave 3 of (5), implying still-higher targets before a top; a bullish variation. Invalidation of the bullish primary: a daily close below €78.83.
5 · Current Wave Analysis
The active wave is Intermediate (5) up, now in a shallow pullback. Holding €97.3-€93.77 keeps the momentum targets in play; fresh highs above €103.00 confirm continuation.

Constructive above SMA-200
Invalidation: a daily close below €78.83 voids the bullish impulse; a loss of the SMA-200 (€84.13) would warn of a deeper correction.
