Weekly preview

I was expecting something around resistance 2620 for c=a, but we saw spikes on Thursday and Friday. Now we have c=1,23xa and for c 5=0,618(1to3) common target for the fifth wave. Every index and share I look at shows complete pattern... so I think the indexes are close to a top. I was expecting turn date around MLK day and I thought it will be a low, but now it is obvious it will be a high. Next we should see topping and at least 50% retracement, but I think it will be more like 61,8%.

The big picture a-b-c for B higher running. Last week I explained in details what I see so nothing new to add. Now all indexes joined the NDX and overlap with the previous waves... I do not know how to twist this bearish and count major top.


TECHNICAL PICTURE and ELLIOTT WAVES
Short term - some counting impulse, I think a-b-c fits better. At the end the outcome will be the same. Despite the spikes on Thursday and Friday the pattern is still valid and shows common Fibo measurements - at the same levels you have the target for wave 5 and on higher degree c=1,23xa.


Intermediate term - I expect something like in March.2018. The price should spend time below MA200 topping - lower 100 points to support, retracing more of the decline and bigger leg lower to retrace 50%-61,8% of the whole rally for b/B.
RSI very steep advance this is not sustainable and it should cool off.


Long term - wave B running for IV from 2009. Possibilities are simple zig-zag or triangle to burn time.


MARKET BREADTH INDICATORS
Market Breadth Indicators - the oscillators very overbought so it is time for a pause.
McClellan Oscillator - very overbought with divergence.
McClellan Summation Index - buy signal.
Weekly Stochastic of the Summation Index - buy signal.
Bullish Percentage - buy signal.
Percent of Stocks above MA50 - in the middle of the range .
Fear Indicator VIX - one push to 25 and lower again.
Advance-Decline Issues - very overbought with divergence.


HURST CYCLES
Day 17... a good time for a short term high and decline for mid-cycle low.


Week 4 for the 20 week cycle. Shorter cycles possible 40 week low in Dec.2018 so we will keep an eye how fast the pattern develops.


Tom Demark SEQUENTIAL AND COUNTDOWN - this technique spots areas of exhaustion.
Sell setup completed and this time I think it will be really a sell.

  1. Thanks Krasi. Could it be that wave IV goes to 1800? In 1800 is the previous 4 subwave

    1. I do not think so low, but yes this is the idea. The rule is I think the area of the previous wave 4 of lower degree and this is between 2100-1800.

  2. So if we say that Tuesday marks the beginning of the decline, where is the likely point in time for the next low? Are we talking about a 8-10 day decline that puts us around February 1 (Friday)? Just curious how much emphasis is on price and time. thanks for your great work.

    1. I am not so good at such timing, but I would say the end of January should be low of the first leg lower and the next low should be around mid February.

  3. Do we have confirmed reversal or still up in the air?

    1. It looks like reversal to me. Confirmation is when we see close below MA10/MA50, for now the price is bouncing and finds support.

    2. No reversal. Triangles on US indices and H&S brakeout and backtest on DAX.

    3. I can not see triangles, break outs and so on....

  4. No direction - presumably a choppy B wave and if so should resolve today/monday ...

  6. Hi Krasi, for equities, could it be that 2018 had completed d entire correction - a repeat of 1997-98 where most EM market fell off the cliff while US dropped 20+%, before market continied to rally till the dot.com bubble burst? Tq

    1. Not my favorite scenario, but yes it is an option.
      In this case I want to see another sell off with a low below the December bottom.
