Weekly preview

NYSE and DJI catching up this week. This is the final wave c/B there will be no pullback and higher for a zig-zag. That is all for the B-wave probably one more 20d cycle for 2-3 weeks... or it just turns lower next week all this at mid-4y cycle high two years after the 4y high.
The first week this move started I wrote this wave behaves like final c-wave not like a beginning a-wave or correction b/2-wave. Now it is clear why - because it is c-wave. The pattern is shown on the daily chart - it has high probability because it works for almost every US index... just NDX is a little bit different.


TRADING
Trading trigger - buy signal.
Analysis - final wave completing the correction and turn lower to complete the 4y cycle low. Intermediate term high in 2-3 weeks.
P.S. - for a trade both analysis and trigger should point in the same direction.


TECHNICAL PICTURE and ELLIOTT WAVES
Short term - it looks like impulse but I doubt it. I would say it is a double zig-zag and next week we should see completed a-wave and b-wave from the second zig-zag. If not it is a simple zig-zag makes a high next week c=a and it is over.


Intermediate term - I do not expect zig-zag to complete B anymore - this is the final wave c/B. We have a-b-c/B with complex b/B wave - SPX looks like expanding triangle but if you look NYSE or DJIA it is a running flat. This pattern works for almost every index.
Alternate the B-wave started earlier in June.2022 which does not change much... only b/B is bigger.


Long term - 4y cycle high the end of 2021, now a-b-c lower into 4y cycle low in Q1 2024.
Very long term - most likely huge double zig-zag from the 2009 low. If we are lucky this is lower degree b-wave(green) and there is one more high. If not multi year decline has started.


MARKET BREADTH INDICATORS
Market Breadth Indicators - pointing higher and overbought, there is some long term divergence... wait for a turn lower.
McClellan Oscillator - divergence.
McClellan Summation Index - buy signal, long term divergence.
Weekly Stochastic of the Summation Index - buy signal.
Bullish Percentage - close to overbought.
Percent of Stocks above MA50 - overbought.
Advance-Decline Issues - close to overbought, long term divergences.
Fear Indicator VIX - testing the previous low.


HURST CYCLES
Short term cycles - we have shallow 5w low, now the fourth 20d cycle is running. The last 5w high counts better as extended so one more 20d cycle looks better, but it is not a guarantee - we have four 20d cycle for a second 10w high and 20w high.


Week 5 for the 20w cycle. Rising into 20w cycle high currently at week 18 discussed above.
Long term the previous 4y cycle high is repeating - 3x40w cycles/two years for mid-cycle high(2018-2019 / 2022-2023) and down into 4y low.

  2. Can you provide bitcoin update? Is it in lock step with the indices?

    1. Yes, it is corrective move. A pattern consists of 3 or 5 legs - we have only two. It does not matter that it doubled it is still corrective.
      Looking at ETH it is pretty obvious, no need to be expert or even analysis - https://schrts.co/AwImPmvY
      Strong decline 6 months, weak bearish flag 18 months.

    1. Not really, the same - corrective b-wave.

    2. And therefore following c-wave will approach/test October '22 low? Thanks.

    3. It could be part of a triangle so higher low is possible.

  4. Chop around and then up. Trash will get the bids in the meantime

  5. So what happens when this hits a new ATH before a drop? You said zero probability awhile back but it seems possible.

    1. What happened in 2019? - the same will happen. Corrective wave is a corrective wave and it will be fully retraced.

  6. What do you think about the NDX?

    ReplyDelete
  7. But you say NDX is a little different

    1. Not the long term, maybe b/B is different.

    2. NDX 17000 is a good target, pullback to trend line January August 2023

    3. Another target is 18000 trend line highs 2018-2020

    1. can you explain what you see? which chart?

  9. Now that everyone is convinced we go higher do we fall apart here?

  10. I see nasdaq 17000 this month

  11. Karsi, it is very tempting to long SPX now for the short term gain. do you have a weekly chart to feel the movement?

    ReplyDelete

    1. At this late stage it is the opposite of tempting. You need max daily chart when this move should be over in 2 weeks.
      I do not know what chart can be helpful. I think it has turned higher for the next 20d cycle high.

      Delete
    2. ok do you mean it has already higher than 20d cycle high or have to wait for 2 more weeks for this bullish move to be over? I think every market participants are seeing all charts are super bullish upwards without regards to fundamentals, mechanics, etc. just buy just make money. really amazing. feels like irrational and exuberance.

      Delete
    3. I mean the momentum turned up already and half of the next 20d cycle high is behind us.
      What you are describing is the sentiment at a top... and you let all this "gold rush" influence you.
      It is time for sell not buy.

  12. When the trash stocks go up 100 percent in a week, you know we're close. No fomo yet.
