We're getting alternation between an almost indistinguishable wave 2 and this current wave 4. However, if we breach 459, then we have declined lower than .50% of wave 2 and 3, and although we have NO overlap, the chances are high we are no longer dealing with a wave 4. Therefore I will keep this simple, above 459 and we go higher to complete this larger...
Currently I have NVDA starting a c-wave of iv down to 467 minimum. If at anytime price breaches the $449 area, chances become very high, NVDA may have topped. Under that scenario, I expect price to find support in the $400 region and to hold that area and rally, could mean that is our minor a-wave bottom. Suffice to say, if you own NVDA, raising some cash at...
In the micro count, it appears we're in our wave iv with another low to come to complete. From there I am expecting one more high to complete this two-decade pattern.
Starting with the big picture containing all the price action within Trading View charts. Based on fib extension levels my long-term green labeled count is my primary. Purple is an alternative, but again, based on fib extensions levels it seems unlikely that purple is the optimal long-term count. Nonetheless, in either scenario, we should be entering a...
Has Elliott Wave Lost Its Forecasting Accuracy? I cannot recall the exact setting, but many years ago I was asked this specific question… ” …as the number of practitioners of Elliott Wave Theory grows due to its popularity, won’t more people be trading these wave patterns and in doing so, somehow skew the theory’s efficacy”? It’s a great question. One...
As we continue to subdivide within this larger cycle wave a down targeting the low 3,000 area, we appear to find ourselves in a countertrend b-wave retracement. This area has the potential to carve out potential complex patterns as b-waves and wave 4's are the areas where traders are frustrated from a sentiment standpoint. I do not think we should be prepared...
We've all heard that the small capitalized publicly traded companies lead the larger cap companies, more so featured in the broader indices. A quick look back shows the Small Caps Topped in November 2021, whereas the Nasdaq and SP500 did not top till January 2022. Subsequently, the IWM bottomed in June of 2022, and it took the NDX and SPX till October of 2022 to...
I just returned from a week's long vacation in the beautiful appalachian mountains and updated my members on the current posture of the SPX cash market, the ES and NQ futures. However, I did not forget my trading view followers who I have not updated in some time. I do believe this current pattern down extends and if there was a time within the current pattern...
Is the Stock Market Dead Money For The Next 10-20 Years? So much of how our markets work is based on optimism. Can you imagine being a money manager and your entire sales pitch is some negative diatribe about how the market is going down and will continue to go down? Would you fork over your hard-earned savings based on such a story? Not a successful plan...
Earlier today I was on a conference call with traders examining the index price patterns and discussing the initial price action of The SP500 (INDEXSP: .INX) and the Nasdaq (INDEXNASDAQ: .IXIC) off their July highs. Currently my company is forecasting we revisit, and ultimately breach the October 2022 lows sometime in the first half of 2024. However, what the...
In my latest installment of the repeating Sentiment chart, we get a front row seat on how trader sentiment ebbs and flows with price action. Once we hit the target of 4172-4180, that will be a function of the bearish thesis getting aggressive. A complete unwinding of the utter junk spewed on CNBC a month ago. New highs possible? Soft landing? The magnificent...
Today we hit my long standing targets and so far have bounced. I have carried an orange bullish count and a bearish blue count on this chart for a while now. If we can develop an impulsive 5-wave structure up that breaches 4508. I'll remove the bearish blue count targeting 4030-4060. Should we rally in a corrective 3-wave manner and fail to take out key...
Post 2009 Financial Crisis, they made movies about the housing and economic downturn. Here’s the thing, there are over 10M financial advisors, money managers, hedge fund managers, and fundamental and technical analysts in the industry. This doesn’t include the geniuses in the Financial News business. However, why did only a hand full of that total population...
I’ve written about price heading to the mid 4200’s to low 4300’s for a while now. By my count, I’ve written a total of 4 times just in the month of September. Links below: Sept 15 Sept 14 Sept 8 Sept 2 The target moved up slightly following the Sept contract change to Dec from 4256 to 4307.50. As the analysis changed, I adjusted my targets. But I...
Today, we have clearly started our descent down to the low 4300 level. I have posted about this sort of move for a while now. This move to the 4300 level will not happen in a day, nor do I think it will reach my target by next week. However, I do think this will be the type of descent that will not allow for good short entries. That day has come and gone....
The rally off the August 18th lows is an overlapping mess that stands a high probability of concluding very soon, if not TODAY. However, yesterday's CPI report market reaction marked a unique opportunity to remind followers, that markets are not linear. You can choose to look at the CPI report positively through a bullish or bearish lense. The reality was the...
If you’re a parent, you’ll certainly understand that children do things despite being told not to. Is it out of curiosity? A rebellious nature? An issue with authority? Or my favorite, they know more? Yes, yes, and yes. It could be those answers or a variety of other reasons. Nonetheless, we don’t expect market participants to act like children. Maybe as...
As many of you may recall I recently posted that the areas of ES 4250-60 is my next target. What happens there will determine the price action for the remainder of 2023. You can read the post here. However, from a sentiment standpoint, we look next to see if boldness develops on the part of the more bearish thesis. To breach the 1.0 on the ES in any...
