Intermediate term view - I am not sure if the intermediate term bottom is in.
This week the markets has followed my plan again moving higher and testing MA50, but compared to last week I have to change it a little bit:)
The move higher takes too long, we have green week, and the intra day charts show that we have corrective action, which means we are not finished to the upside. If I am right than we have two scenarios - one very simple the correction is over and the second complex correction which is still not finished.
- the correction is over - we had a simple zig zag W-X-Y(red count on the hourly chart), Y=W, 7.5% correction (perfect between 7% and 8%), just 5 points shy of 38,2%, exactly the same development compared to the previous occasions of such strong rallys(see the weekly chart)
- complex correction - the red count is just part one or wave W pink(see the hourly chart) of something bigger and we are now in the middle of wave X pink.
It can sounds confusing, but the trading plan is simple - buy the dip as long as it stays above 61,8% Fibo or the 1582-1585 range.
TECHNICAL PICTURE
Short term - the action is corrective and after one or two red days the move up should continue. The line in the sand is 61,8% Fibo - the 1582-1585 range.
Intermediate term - I am not sure which scenario has higher probability. My feeling says the green scenario, the logic(the indicators) are more favorable for the red one. I will just follow the market and not think too much:)
- Momentum Histogram/RSI - momentum is short term up, but the histogram is still bellow zero and RSI is testing the 50 level... not strong enough for now.
Long term - no change, corrective move and higher high expected.
- Momentum Histogram/RSI - momentum is pointing down, intermediate term trend is down.
MARKET BREADTH INDICATORS
The Market Breadth Indicators - do not help us much to decide which scenario is in play. They favor probably more the red scenario.... the interpretation can be ambiguous - I can say we had enough action to the downside and correction is over or one more push is missing.
McClellan Oscillator - moved to positive territory, which can be the correction is over, but it could be "every time when it moves to -100 it moves back above the zero line" but the correction is usually not over....
McClellan Summation Index - still on sell, does not help us much.
Weekly Stochastic of the Summation Index - sell signal. Reached oversold territory the usual behavior is expect reversal in the next 1-2 weeks.
Bullish Percentage - sell signal... does not moved to the usual levels for a correction 40-50...
Percent of Stocks above MA50 - just 2 points shy of 25%... the correction could be over or not...
Fear Indicator VXO - touched 22... the correction could be over or not...
Issues Advancing - the divergence warned us for a reversal... he correction could be over
Issues Declining - the divergence warned us for a reversal... he correction could be over
HURST CYCLES
If the green scenario plays out the count stays the same. If we see the red scenario developing than we have saw already 20 and 40 week cycle bottom.
The same story here we will see how it develops to adjust the 20 and 40 week cycle bottom.
Tom Demark SEQUENTIAL AND COUNTDOWN - this technique spots areas of exhaustion.
Nothing interesting - 3 of a sell setup on the daily chart and 3 of a buy setup on the weekly chart.
