Weekly preview

The pattern was not completed, which was obvious and now we have it with explosion. There is possible completed pattern so waiting for confirmation or not next week. Its taking so long because with very high probability we have 20 week low in March - my mistake. Not that I was not expecting two legs higher and this second leg, the daily cycle showed it clearly, just from the beginning we would had known that it will take longer and higher.

We have two legs higher with shallow and long middle section exactly the same like 2019/2020... some has not learned and counting impulse again.
EW pattern - X wave in 2019, corrective leg lower, corrective leg higher above 62% expect impulse lower to complete flat pattern. I though after X wave from all three corrective patterns flat is the least probable because it is crazy after what happened in March, but it is playing out.
Cycles - 20 week low in March and now final 20 week cycle running with expected low in July to complete at least 4y cycle.


TECHNICAL PICTURE and ELLIOTT WAVES
Short term - we can discuss for hours and I have to explain pages and discuss many indexes and futures.... instead lets not distract and keep it simple. IMHO the fact itself that we have to discuss if it is an impulse or not means with very high probability it is not. Impulses are just there and they do not need to be justified.
I see an a-b-c with possible finished c or waves 4-5/c to complete it. I can make the case for both scenarios - again focus on trading, which means patience, which means we wait for the price action on Monday for more information. If I start with trading it will be again long story - I will make it short wait for confirmation.... or some will not understand and call me again full of shit:)


Intermediate term - we discussed before the jump on Friday that it is most likely a flat, now I do not see other pattern fitting. It feels like exhaustion gap... we will see on Monday. Now the time is getting ripe for the gaps to the downside to be closed.


Long term - the leg up almost completed, next final sell off will finish the whole correction which begun in 2018.


MARKET BREADTH INDICATORS
Market Breadth Indicators - is strong with some divergences.
McClellan Oscillator - overbought, divergence with the previous high.
McClellan Summation Index - buy signal.
Weekly Stochastic of the Summation Index - buy signal at overbought level for a while.
Bullish Percentage - overbought, divergence with the previous high.
Percent of Stocks above MA50 - strong.
Fear Indicator VIX - made lower low, but still elevated levels. I expect one more rally.
Advance-Decline Issues - overbought.


HURST CYCLES
Daily(trading) cycle - the signal is buy. The price is too far from MA10 next should be this interaction with the moving average.


Hurst cycles day - I guess 20 day low on a pullback or just lower for 40 day cycle low. The lower sine wave probably will need to be adjusted what is coming should have different dynamics from the prior move up.


Week 11 for the 20 week cycle. I have switched to the alternate scenario 20 week low in March. Now the final one is running which should be shorter than the average because the previous one was longer than the average. We had already shorter 10w cycle lasting less than 8 weeks. I guess the length of the 20w cycle should be somewhere between 16-18 weeks. The 20 week cycle high seems to arrive on schedule with the proper price action.

  1. RUT is one index, which shows clearly that there is no impulse wave two is missing - look at the cash index it is just not there. The futures are showing clear two legs higher, they count very well as impulses and overall a-b-c - https://invst.ly/r1buq

    This support the bearish case.... well we will see on Monday. Who knows it could develop as an impulse with extended first wave:)

  2. What do you think about calling this entire move an expanding diagonal either leading or ending starting from January high, best seen on RUT or NYA?

  7. Wondering for a long time about the EUR/USD pattern... it seems the same like the indexes W-X-Y(flat) - https://invst.ly/r1d8k
    Depends on where you count the end of the triangle like the indexes one more high or not.

    P.S. for those with the stupid comments the important information is not if there is one more high or not. The important information is sell off is coming then big up. If you can not grasp what is important for trading maybe you should quit trading.

    3. All the markets are moving in tandem. I have shown the USD because it is leading the parade.
      Another wave of fear is coming - the same trades like March USD higher, bond higher, yield lower, commodities lower, stocks lower.

  8. For those who cannot grasp Krasi's work, look back at Q4 2015. Nasdaq also made a higher high back then. The rip that we're seeing then is similar to what we're seeing now.
    Drops of the magnitude that we saw in March typically gets retested. The only exception I see is in early 2019. If you're long, be very careful.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Krasi the only thing I don't agree with you is the timing of July for the 4Y low. Based on the strength of this move, and the timing band for bonds I think we'll likely see another high in SPX on the next 20day high with divergence before we resume downwards. I don't think we have enough time to get it done by July.

      Delete
    2. This is one of the options a day or two lower for 20day low and the next one making higher high and failing as left translated - do not expect to move higher for weeks.
      The move lower will be quick like 5-6 weeks do not expect calm and orderly decline.

      Delete
    3. "... look back at Q$ 2015. Nasdaq also made a higher high back then." Only if you are referring to QQQ (etf) or futures(?). $COMPQ (index) did not make higher high in Q4 - 5231.94 (July 2015) vs. 5176.77 (December 2015). But I agree, the similarities on the longer-term charts (weekly/monthly) are palpable. And if there is a "Rule of Alternation", then maybe no V-bottom this time versus Q4 of 2018? Only time will tell ...

    For reversal impulsive move below 3120 is needed. If it is just a zig-zag it is wave iv yellow and the target is around 3270 where we have two Fibo measurements and the last gap from February.

    1. Not really I do not have analysis, I do not follow it. Just a quick look it looks like 4y cycle high late 2017 and 4y cycle low late 2018.
      The next 4y cycle high to high is already 2.5y old which is not so bullish. Some corrective pattern is running - not sure what it is.
      It is easy to follow cycles which are pretty consistent - example Jun.2019 was the next 18m high, the end of 2020 is the next one.
      I think it will follow all the other markets and decline June/July for 18 month cycle low.

    1. Many indices made lower high in February examples NYSE/RUT/EEM - I am getting tired to explain it NDX/SP500 is NOT the market it is distorted version because of 5 big tech. Their strength will NOT save the market.
      If you project further in time it does not make much sense - example the current daily cycle will be right translated again which means the next one making higher high again and from 3 you get 6-8 weeks higher.

      I think A is not complete and B will take much longer - I expect important low and the price should move higher for 2 years to form B.

      At least he is from the few which get it - moves with such size and speed are corrective not trending.

  42. 50% rally in just over two months must be the fastest ever . I always thought a C wave would be have more ferocity than the A wave & if so , it implies a 1000+ point decline in 20 or so trading days.

    Can understand why the sceptics don't see that coming .

    Maybe the March low was the C wave of a double three and this is just finishing off the X wave , before a double bottom or higher low.

      2330 - I have this theory that Jan.2020 was the top not February. Wave a as a combo - expanded flat, small x and zig-zag. In this case the current rally just hit 90% retracement for b wave from big flat correction Y and around 2330 SP500 will hit support(Dec.2018) and this wave Y=1,618xW

    3. Good morning Krasi, Everyone,
      Thank you for update. Would like to mention that my work rhymes with what Krasi is showing. Short term as per first chart. One observation to add - $NYMO close above 90 on recent top. In at least 90% cases after such set up market makes new high. On a day $NYSE made a high with NYSI over 90 - we did not rewrite that high so far. So if market makes new high with $NYMO divergence (and other divergences), this will be good indication of a top soon.
      Let's see also if oil has already reversed or we shall see one more high as well.

  57. Hi Krasi, what would you consider as a confirmation for reversal? Looks like these are likely today -
    - Close below MA10
    - Breakdown from the wedge

    Would you wait for breakdown from 200DMA to add to the short or would you add today itself assuming it is a reversal based on timing of the reversal (i.e. aligning with the timing of the cycles)?

    Or would you add on the next higher low (lets say, gap closes around 3181 and there are signs of reversal)?

    1. The signal is close below MA10. Today we saw gap below it and the wedge was broken at the same time - usually, when you see this... it is down, short is triggered.

      Confirmation for trend reversal is impulse lower. For example in April/May we know the cycle is down, but bullish and EW confirms it with corrective moves so you avoid to trade short unless for a few days.

      Now it is too far from MA10 and close to MA200/MA50, it looks like 1-2-3 waiting for 4-5 and 40d cycle low then the bounce higher probably testing MA10 and if it is corrective this is another entry point.

      Entry points - speculative for those who can count EW at completed pattern, like now gap below MA10, close below M10(currently waiting huge move), finished impulse and corrective retracement, every 6-8 days there is 10d low.

  58. This is not a flat, it's a WXY combo correction. The W started on January and ended at end of February The entire move from march till Monday was the X wave, the X wave is an expanded flat or another combo correction. If you count it that way, the X wave only retraced 61.8% appx. of the W wave, so not a flat.

    Right now we are in the Y move. The Y move is unlikely to be a 5 wave impulse down, it's most likely to be a zigzag. I think we bounce at 2750-2800 for the A move, then go up for the B wave for nobody knows how long or high, then come down in a C wave that may go to new lows.

    1. You can also call it a double zigzag

    2. One step back what is 2019 - B, X or finished impulse?
      I am counting X and after X there is no w-x-y, there is another corrective pattern.

      Delete
    3. 2019 was X wave, after the X is Y which can be wxy. It doesn't have to be a simple abc correction but can be a complex wxy.

      Delete
    4. This is wrong - w or y is one corrective pattern zig-zag/flat/triangle, w or y is not a combo.

    1. There are not exactly haters... easy money is like drug causing euphoria and happiness and in the last two years I am spoiling the party with my corrective waves:) It is defensive reflex, simple trading psychology.

      Maybe the tools are not always right(rather I read them wrong), but I know they will always beat emotions. So it is better to put emotions aside instead being the bag holder.

    1. It is always a good idea to short the weakest index/stock and go long the strongest.
      This three months are good example - a guy trying to trade long banks... why?!?!? the strongest stocks are tech stocks.

      Delete
    2. BTW Roberto, in reference to your question on NAT GAS above, have you looked at USO as well? It is setting up for a sweet bullish divergence/reversal on the weekly chart, with price falling near/below 16.88, with higher lows printed on indicators (ROC, Stoch, RSI, MAC, etc.). Timing would probably also coincide with Krasi's bottom completion for other indices.

  69. Hi Krasi,

    Good to see you are still very active!

    I jus wanted to get your opinion on your view about the current trade. I am currently short SPY with the break at 10 dma. I added to my position with the current retracement. I plan on holding till 240 target. Now, every time I try to trade the smaller waves, I get pushed out and the bigger move gets away from me. To my read, fifth wave should be underway and we should retrace Monday or Tuesday. But selling my position has often left me out of the bigger move.

    So this time, I am holding for a month or unless my target is hit. How do you trade the expected retracements? Do you trade such moves? Do you simply hold since the current first move was so strong?

    Thanks,

    Kali

    1. I usually avoid to trade the small waves too, because the success rate is much lower.
      The current situation - I think we have impulse which is still not completed. It could be completed today or Monday - we have to wait. Next week we should see something like 50% retracement. The reaction today was 85 points and the retracement should be bigger because it is of higher degree so easily 100 points or more.

      I have took half of the profits, but my decision was simple because half of my position was long volatility(triple ETFs) it peaks a little bit earlier and it sinks dramatically when we have retracement.

      You have to decide for yourself - waiting and risking to see the profits evaporate or closing and risking the market plunge further or you can close part of the position and wait for retracement next week.
      This are the three choices and you have to decide for yourself. Every trader is different and you have to pick one, which you will be comfortable with. Personal opinion the last one taking some profits is most of the time the best choice.

  70. I think this is not still the wave C, It is the end of B.
    it is rare for a wave to start from its absolute high.

    2. Sometimes a wave dont start from the top, the previous wave can finish in failure from a lower high, especially B waves
