Weekly preview

Third sideways week... and on Friday booom - this should be the missing c-wave for the correction.
This move "up" is corrective and now takes longer than the previous decline retracing only 38% - so I expect one final flush lower to complete the decline with 20w low. I am following this analysis for weeks and it will be proven right or wrong next week... it will be really strange to see continuation higher.

The bigger picture - the move lower does not look like reversal rather it is part of a bigger corrective pattern.


TRADING
Trading trigger - buy signal.
Analysis - long term sell the rips, we have major top. Intermediate term - lower until late January/early February.

P.S. - for a trade both analysis and trigger should point in the same direction.


TECHNICAL PICTURE and ELLIOTT WAVES
Short term - this should be the c-wave for the pattern higher.


Intermediate term - the pattern is not clear at the moment, I am watching this two options. The last leg up is choppy it fits as c/B of a triangle or a/B of a flat, so far the current leg lower is too slow and choppy for reversal so d/B or b/B.


Long term - most likely huge double zig-zag from the 2009 low B-wave was completed and multi year decline has started. If we are lucky it is lower degree b-wave.


MARKET BREADTH INDICATORS
Market Breadth Indicators - turned higher, I think for a short term high and not a reversal.
McClellan Oscillator - above zero.
McClellan Summation Index - buy signal.
Weekly Stochastic of the Summation Index - sell signal.
Bullish Percentage - turned up, in the middle of the range.
Percent of Stocks above MA50 - turned up.
Fear Indicator VIX - there is no much fear... some sideways mess.
Advance-Decline Issues - moving higher.


HURST CYCLES
Short term cycles - not very clear...
The highs - too long for 5w high too short for 10w high - a guess the next 20w high will consist of three longer 5w cycles.
The lows - I think currently in the final 5w cycle. The 20w cycle looks like the previous one no clear 10w low... maybe three longer 5w cycles too.


Week 12 for the 20w cycle.... it will be strange if see reversal higher instead of a few weeks lower to complete the cycle.
The most obvious 18m low is in October - this will fit with flat B-wave. I have the suspicion it could have been in June - this will fit with triangle B-wave.

  1. Good stuff Krasi, thank you. Put call ratios are near recent lows.

  2. Hi Krasi, it is starting to look like reversal higher. What do you think?

    1. It starts looking like a top of higher degree 10w cycle high, but nothing to suggest reversal. Still the same choppy corrective wave taking longer than the decline and retracing less than 50% so far - classical b-wave.

    2. So 1-2 weeks more for 10w high and then go down 2-3 weeks for 20w low?

      Delete
    3. Around 4200 for 10w high and around 3600 for 20w low?

    4. I doubt it will take so much time and price.... rather the turn lower should be imminent.

  3. And 22 December 10w low

    1. Yes, if we stick to the theory this should be the 10w low.

  4. This market is too strong. Should rise another 500 from here on Nasdaq. What do you think?

    1. I think that a lot of fantasy is needed to see strength. Overbought indicators and price not taking out the previous high(in fact retracing just 50%) is weakness not strength.

  5. Yardeni: "We're back in a bull market".

    1. I do not know who the guy is and I do not care.... wild guess just another wall street asshole selling bullshit.

      I saw it somewhere yesterday, I will try to quote it... it summarizes such wall street "analysts":
      "Tell lies to those who want to be lied and you will be rich.
      Tell truth to those who want to hear the truth and you will make a living.
      Tell truth to those who want to be lied and you will go broke."

      Wall street is in the business of selling bullshit.

    2. I just posted Yardeni's "take" as an example of a comedic interpretation of the current market conditions, and not as a counter/refutal of your hard work, Krasi. Next time I will follow similar with an "LOL", smiley face, or other indication of my tongue and cheek posting(s).

  6. U.S. CPI tomorrow at 8:30am EST. This has been the biggest market moving data point of late. Either we break down or break out hard after that. Be careful with your risk exposure going into that release. I believe the market has been ripping higher in anticipation of it this past week, so hopefully a lot less upside than downside from these levels.

    1. I have said it many times - news does not matter and this time is not different.
      What hapend the last time with the bullish cpi numbers? Wall street sold the bullshit to those who want to believe it.

    2. The last CPI print, S&P futures rallied >100pts in seconds and then gave most of it back during the day, that's more than a 6% intraday move. It was also the day the S&P marked an interim high and reversal/short term top. I was just curious to see if tomorrow fits with your timing of a reversal lower. Thank you

    3. One month from the last high so minimum 5w high, more likely 10w high.
      Probably it will play out differently, but at the end it will be the same - sell the news.

  7. Thank you for the answer and sharing your work!

  8. I don't disagree with your analysis but don't you see bullishness in the market, at least based on RSI divergence in several places? US02Y has declined and risk assets like ARKK and Bitcoin are on the run.
    Are you primarily because because 20w cycle hasn't completed?

    1. There is nothing bullish, nothing more than corrections. The 4y cycle points lower that is all you need to know.

  9. Would you mind commenting on the european indices?
    Clearly outperforming and the structure looks more bullish compared to us markets.
    Thanks,

    1. B-wave should be completing then we should see C-wave - https://invst.ly/-04br

    2. Thanks a lot!
      What a mess if we see a reversal in the next few days and January goes flat or red…
      I guess it should coincide with a turn in DXY.

    1. It is not a divergence there is now lower low to diverge something, it just shows it is maybe top of a higher degree.

  11. it looks like 10w high but from August are 20 weeks, maybe 20w high?

    1. It is possible .... see the chart above the DAX - in this case this could be even 18m high.
