When two of the three main U.S. stock indices; SPX, DJI, and IXIC do not confirm a new high/low it could signal a trend change. A bearish signal happened on 08/01/23 when the DJI was the only main U.S. stock index to make a new 2023. On 10/06/23 the DJI was the only Index to make a new post 08/01/23 decline low. October is seasonally a bearish month, however...
My prior Crude Oil post noted that an important top may have been made at the 09/28/23 top. In 7 – trading days Crude Oil declined 13% Stochastics indicates it could soon bounce. Longer – term there’s potential for much more decline. Crude Oils seasonal patterns are bearish into December.
A very important Crude Oil top may have been made on 09/28/23. These are the factors. 1) Completed Elliott wave - Inverse Expanding Flat. 2) Bearish divergences on RSI and MACD. 3) Peak on 09/28/23 hit rising trendline. 4) Top one day before Full Moon on 09/29/23. 5) Bearish seasonal patterns until late December There’s potential for Crude Oil to drop to the low...
NVDA is nearing important support at the double bottom formed by 401.00 low made on 06/26/23 and the low of 403.11 made on 08/14/23. RSI has still not reached the oversold zone – below 30%. MACD is showing no bullish divergence. A break below the double bottom could trigger a crash down to the next support level in the low 300 area.
For the first time since late 2021 Monthly SPX - Stochastic has a bearish line cross in the overbought zone. This could be signaling the start of a multi - week decline. Watch the rising trendline connecting the October 2022 and March 2023 bottoms. A move below this line could confirm a large down wave.
The SPX since it’s 07/27/23 top appears to have formed an Elliott wave series of “one’s” and “two’s” down. This is the most dynamic Elliott wave configuration and in this case implies a potential sharp and deep decline. The U.S. FOMC decision on short -term interest rates is 9/20/23. This could be the trigger event for a sharp decline in U.S. stocks.
The SPX weekly KST oscillator has a bearish lines cross. This indicator has lagging line cross signals. Note the prior effective signals. If the current signal is effective it implies the SPX could decline for several weeks.
The Elliott wave count for U.S. 30 year yields/rates (TYX) indcate a potential sharp rise. The most likely TYX Elliott wave count has it forming a third of a third wave up. This is the most dynamic Elliott wave pattern. In this case it implies TYX could reach the 5.00 area in a few weeks. If this were to occur it could have bearish implications for U.S. stocks.
Nvidia continues to have a bearish Elliott wave count. After the Elliott wave – Ending Diagonal Triangle top there was a clear five waves down. The rally into 08/30/23 failed to exceed the 08/24/23 top. The rally on 09/01/23 failed to exceed the 08/30/23 peak. Also, on 09/01/23 both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite made post 08/18/23 rally highs, NVDA did...
Apple Inc. (AAPL) has a very clear Elliott - five waves down from 07/19/23 to 08/18/23. AAPL now appears to be in a three - wave correctiive pattern which could top out this week. If so this could signal an important counter trend peak for U.S. stocks. Watch Apple Inc.
Since the 07/31/23 peak SOX has declined in an Elliott Impulse pattern followed by a three wave corrective pattern which is so far a Single Zigzag. In the short-term its possible the rally could continue to the .618 retracement of the 07/31/23 to 08/18/23 decline. If this were to occur it would be a Double Zigzag correction. After completion of the Zigzag or...
Nvida has moved above its 07/14/23 top and has invalided the Elliott wave count illustrated in my prior NVDA post. The rally into a new high has taken the form of an Elliott wave - Ending Diagonal Triangle (EDT). This is a termination pattern of of the main trend. Frequently EDT's have a throwover of the trendline connecting the termination points of waves "one"...
The Nasdaq Composite (IXIC) was the first of the three main U.S. stock indices to top out in July 2023. Momentum indicators are signaling more potential downside action.

The amazing NVDA 350% gain from October 2022 to July 2023 appears to be a blow off top. Normally RSI will have at least one bearish divergence at significant tops. Weekly RSI hit its maximum at the July 2023 price top. This type of action occurs in blow off tops in commodities and in individual stocks. Other bearish factors 1) Elliott Impulse wave up...
The SPX has completed an extended Elliott Impuse wave at the 08/09/23 bottom. The subsequent action after 08/09/23 appears to be a developing Expanding Flat. If so it could be complete in one or two trading days. The presumed Minor wave "1" could be the first wave of a developing bear phase into October 2023. Significant bottom could be made in the area of...
For the second time in 2023 Amazon.com inc. (AMZN) had a gap up on a quarterly earnings report. The current instance could be much more bearish than the January gap up.
