Update

The speed is crazy the pattern develops in a few days instead of a few weeks.
20 points needed to hit EMA200 and C=0,618xA, 40 points needed to hit 38,2% Fibo retracement of wave III and SMA200 (0,5%-1% in the blink of an eye in current conditions:). European indexes(and SOX) are finishing expanded flat which begun in November. Market breadth reached levels where you see a bottom for a correction and the first divergences VIX and McClellan oscillator. Too many red flags on the short side.

I think the more likely scenario is that the correction is finishing. If I am wrong wave B 50% or more retracement... do you really want to ride 200 points against you if you are short?

  1. Sorry I don't get the meaning "do you really want to ride 200 points against you if you are long?" I agree no matter how to count, currently it looks like finished impulsive down wave. How it goes next depending on how higher and strength for the potential move up? Another worry is that SPX weekly chart: A long red candle closed below MA20, it may likely hit EMA50 2520?? That would be a too deep and quick correction...

    1. I mean short... when the rubber is too stretched is snaps back violently we saw it on the long side now we should see it on the short side. 50% FIbo retracement or MA200 hourly/MA50 daily are easily 150-200 points. I do not see a reason to hold short position no matter the count.
      It is more wise and lucrative to see the next move or even to trade it. There is no point to guess now. Everything still pointing lower and looks scary. I think we will see a lot of up and down in the next few weeks to absorb the selling and this will be the needed time for the indicators and market breadth to stabilize and reverse.

    5. I hope you were not stopped out as the previous low was tested, amazing analysis Krasi. The current move looks similar to Feb 2007 and Brexit, I hope we get relief rally next week, it's been 2 weeks non-stop selling. I hope everyone has great weekend!

    1. Natural gas makes crazy moves I do not touch it. The pattern which I see at the moment is the final wave lower for the correction from the top in Dec.2007, but I would wait for confirmation that the trend has changed and not try to catch the bottom. Probably 2.40 wait for divergences

  4. I'm thinking 2540 in the last hour before a reversal into the close .....Midday low is lower than the opening low , so decent odds the last hour low will be the lowest of the day .

    Just hope we get a rally first as a 2540 print now opens up another big drop into the close

  6. What a week! Thx krasi!
    So, i guess nothing much changed and yesterday’s chart is still your best prognosis for next week? Or not? Medium term has the market been damaged with all this?
    Have a great weekend!
