SHORT-TERM: THE LOW COULD BE IN, WATCH SPX 1200 BREAKOUT TO CONFIRM

The low could be in for 2 reasons:

  1. This is a typical breakout downtrend line then back test the previous low pattern (which could be seen as the 2nd leg down as I’ve been blah blah). Now SPX needs to breakout 1200 to form a 1-2-3 Trend Change pattern to confirm the trend change.
  2. From time perspective, the pullback has lasted 6 trading days which is right within the 5 to 8 trading days pullback range so far this year.

Since both chart pattern and time conform, so there’re some chances that the low was in. Pay attention, I said “there’re some chances” because if tomorrow the market decisively breakdown below SPX 11/16 lows, then obviously the judgment is wrong. As for whether there’ll be a 5th wave up as per many Elliott Wave analysts, we’ll have to wait until the SPX 11/05 highs decisively broken. The chart below just gives a little concept about the wave 5 theoretical target which could go as high as 1300+.

LowCouldBeIn 

0.2.0 Volatility Index (Daily), this chart also says the  low could be in, at least for short-term.

VIXDaily 

If, I said if, the SPX 1200 is taken tomorrow, confirming the low was in, why I still couldn’t say this is the wave 5 up? Well, there’re some possibilities, the same but bigger 1-2-3 Trend Change pattern are in the play, and that’s why I mentioned above, whether this is the wave 5 up, we’ll have to wait until the SPX 11/05 highs decisively broken. For now, bears better wait, while paying close attention to put call ratio, if after just a few days rebound, the ratio goes crazy again, then chances are very good, the rebound is just to retest the previous high.

TestPreviousHigh 

1.2.0 INDU Leads Market，INDU had a  lower low before SPX which supports the view that the rebound (if any) could just be the retest of the previous high. Please refer HERE for more evidences about INDU Leads Market, if interested.
