RUSSELL 2000, Above Preliminary Level, These Steps Can Follow!Hello Traders Investors And Community, Welcome to this analysis where we are looking at the RUSSELL 2000 index 4-hour timeframe perspective, the recent events, the current formational structure and what we can expect the next times. The main market and other indices like the SPX or DOW recovered steeply from the heavy corona-breakdowns and lows established this year where they already managed to form new all-time-highs, in this case, the RUSSELL 2000 is still below the major all-time-highs established before the corona-breakdowns, this does not mean it can change, however, therefore, it is important that the index shows up with the proper price-action and don't invalidates the possible bullish scenario substantially, therefore I detected all the important levels and possible outcomes we should consider for the index and its destinies. Looking at my chart you can watch there the triangle-formation marked in orange which already broke out to the upside where it also bounced already from the upper boundary and the blue rising-support-line marked in my chart, what is also a good sign is that the index formed a bullish-EMA-crossover already before the triangle-breakout occurred, currently, as you can watch marked in my chart the index has still resistance at the descending-resistance-line marked in grey above the level, when the index manages to move above it this will cause a decent entry setup as the index has taken out its major resistance, as you can watch in my chart, this mechanism can be entered immediately aggressive in the current price-action or conservative when the breakout occurred, although the aggressive approach is also possible the conservative should be preferred. In this manner, thank you for watching, support for more market insight, good day to you, and all the best! “Trading effectively is about assessing possibilities, not certainties.” Information provided is only educational and should not be used to take action in the markets.

$IWF Double Top 3 Lower High Bull FailureBuyers have created a double top from a few days ago which held prices down. Once sellers were able to prove they had the strength to create double tops, they then came in with 3 lower high bull failures completely derailing the bulls from the wedge breakout up. Now, with a fake-break of the wedge top and heavy bear momentum back in, sellers will be hunting for reasons to short down to wedge lows or, at the very least, the congestive lows / closes / wicks.

ridethepig | Nasdaq📍 This is another known position. Breakdown in 5 waves by testing 10,236; 9,548 and 8,859 . Double zig zag is purely a tactical weapon. It is terribly compelling; even the most sluggish of buyers will be trapped here - driven to cover after the latest breakdown. We shall open the next chapter in US Equities with four simple charts: Dow: S&P500: Russell: 📌 In the coming sessions we can open up the short-term charts and start adding some interesting positions to the portfolio. Sellers last move has been interesting of course, not because of the breakdown but because of the blow off top and profit taking that has taken place since. The somewhat theatrical looking pullback is no less imaginative than the move we played together in German Equities (DAX) earlier in the year: If 8,859 is reached then we have the potential for another waterfall. The final combination will depend on whether we get market closures. As usual thanks for keeping the feedback coming 👍 or 👎.

Elliott Wave View: Support Area for Russell 2000 (RTY)Elliott Wave View of Russell 2000 (RTY) suggests the rally from July 31,2020 low has ended at 1605.70 high as wave 3. Up from July 30 low, wave ((i)) ended at 1482.60 high and wave ((ii)) dips ended at 1467.80 low. Index then extended higher in wave ((iii)) towards 1552.60 high. The internal subdivision of wave ((iii)) unfolded as 5 waves impulse Elliott Wave Structure. Wave (i) of ((iii)) ended at 1510.60 high and wave (ii) pullback ended at 1493.70 low. Rally higher in wave (iii) then ended at 1551.60 high, followed by wave (iv) pullback, which ended at 1543.40 low. Wave (v) then extended higher and ended at 1552.60 high. Afterwards, the Index did a pullback in wave ((iv)), which ended at 1534.20 low. Finally, wave ((v)) higher ended at 1605.70 high. This final move completed wave 3 in higher degree and ended cycle from July 31 low. Index is currently correcting that cycle within wave 4. The correction is unfolding as a double three correction, where wave ((w)) has ended at 1560.90 low. The bounce in wave ((x)) ended at 1589.60 high. Wave ((y)) remains in progress right now. As long as 1451.10 low stays intact, expect the dips in 3,7 or 11 swings to find support for more upside. The 100-161.8% extension of wave ((w))-((x)) where ((y)) can end is at 1516.76-1544.71 area and is shown with a blue box. That area if reached later can produce 3 waves bounce at least.

RUSSELL, Decisive Situation, Important Conditions To Fulfill!Hello, Traders Investors And Community, welcome to this analysis about the recent events, the current price-formation and what we can expect the next days and hours from on of the major leading market-indices we have in the stock-market the RUSSELL 3000. As it is building 98 % of the US-economy with its 3000 major companies it is an important index which should be contemplated when looking on the overall stock-market-situation currently developing and in the end make better decisions in trading, as we saw the index going up since the heavy corona-breakdowns it is now on a historical step into confirming the further bullish trend or falling below important support levels to confirm bearishly. Compared to the S&P 500 the index is not that strong at the moment because the uptrend is not that volatile and with more breaks than the comparison index S&P 500. Right now the whole market is in a fundamental decisive phase, I made already analysis about this subject which I highly recommend you to watch when going on my account. When looking at my chart we can examine that the index now confirmed bearish two major trendlines which you can see marked in blue to the downside which showing up as solid bearish signals, the more trendline of such a sort are broken the more increasingly possible gets the bearish continuation possibility. Furthermore, we have the 60- and 800-EMA that you can see marked in orange and black in my chart which serving as significant resistance levels in the structure, currently the index is testing the 60-EMA and falling below it which can result in more bearish decline and a test of the 800-EMA, when this EMA can not hold and the index falls below it this will show one more confirmation to the downside. The next important support and the last line of support is the third rising uptrend line in blue which definitely needs to hold to establish solid support here and show the possibility for a bullish recovery and confirmation on the plan when this last support line does not hold the bearish pressure will increase heavily in the bearish ground you can see marked in my chart. The current situation is a historical situation where not only the RUSSELL but the whole stock-market has to decide in which direction it is going and as there is coming news about a second corona wave and new restrictions resulting out of it the remaining uptrend should be looked at with a critical eye, also this uptrend establishing is till now only a recovery where many stocks did not provide any new highs and a vast majority of the market is still below the all-time-high conditions, in comparison to the economy it has to be noted that there are big differences between the real economy and stock-market as the real economy is still damaged out of the corona-crisis and the stock-market making gains, to succeed further in this environment and providing possible new highs the real economy and stock-market have to gain simultaneously otherwise the rally will be a speculative driven rally, therefore, we should keep in mind a possibility to show more bearish pressure and be prepared on this scenario to profit out of possible occasions arising out of it. In this manner, thank you for watching, support for more market insight, and all the best! The high destiny of the market is to examine rather than to hypothesize.

June 21 Market Update | Technical, Fundamental, NewsDescription: An analysis for the week ahead. Points of Interest: 4-Day Island; Gap; 4-Day Balance. Technical: Mixed messages provided after equity indices broke the short-term, momentum driven uptrend, and corrected on June 11. Overall, the island of balance left behind, after the market sold-off, is still intact and will offer resistance on upward auctions. If the market trades through that area, then sentiment has changed and the initiative activity that drove prices lower is no longer present. Monday displayed a rejection of lower prices after overnight activity started off weak, on a gap down, but quickly corrected into the regular trading session, impulsing higher, through the $3,000 S&P 500 level. Tuesday’s trade blew through most of the resting offers overnight, into a low-volume area, on a record increase in U.S. retail sales. Later on, after a choppy open, the market established good excess on the lower extreme, and pinned near the $3,100 level. Wednesday and Thursday’s action was fairly muted as the market continued digesting the upward correction going into Friday’s simultaneous expiry of options and futures tied to index products. Despite gapping to the high end of the week-long balance overnight, Friday’s trade was volatile and lacked conviction to continue into the resting liquidity at and above the $3,135 area. Putting everything together, the picture points to the potential for a volatile week ahead. With the removal of S&P open interest, gamma (i.e., the sensitivity of options to changes in underlying price) imbalances and hedging activity could heighten volatility. If liquidation continues into the coming week and value moves lower, then the near-term bullish narrative is no longer intact. Scroll to bottom of document for non-profile charts.

May 17 Market Update | Technical, Fundamental, NewsDescription: A simplified analysis for the week ahead. Points of Interest: Monday High; Tuesday Spike, Wednesday LVNode; Thursday Low; Friday Value; Composite Profile; Balance. Technical: There is no clear direction in the market. Nasdaq relatively strong. Russell, Dow, and NYSE are weaker. On Monday, we made it into the $2950 zone of resting liquidity, prior to putting in a weak double top. Tuesday left value behind, liquidating and closing on the lows, which pointed to a continuation lower. Wednesday and Thursday accepted the spike and built a base above the $2760 resting liquidity. Thursday and Friday’s up-action was weak, relative to the earlier selling, and left value overlapping, in balance. With these past developments in mind, the market has been coming into balance over the past few weeks, digesting information, building value, shaking out weak hands. Aside from remaining in balance, the market could extend directionally, or extend and return to balance quickly. Taking out Thursday’s low of $2760.25, my immediate targets on the downside include $2730 and $2630. Upside targets include $2910 and $2950. Scroll to bottom of document for non-profile charts.

Elliott Wave View:Russell 2000 (RTY) Reaching Short Term SupportAs a larger context, the rally in Russell 2000 (RTY) from 3.19.2020 low took the form of an impulsive structure. Up from there, wave (1) ended at 1180.3 and wave (2) pullback ended at 1029.7. Index then resumed higher in wave (3) and ended at 1265.6 and wave (4) pullback ended at 1148.5. The final leg wave (5) ended at 1374. This move also completed wave ((1)) in higher degree and ended cycle from 3.19.2020 low. Wave ((2)) pullback is in progress to correct cycle from 3.19.2020 low in 3, 7, or 11 swing before the Index turns higher again. The 1 hour chart below shows the correction in wave ((2)). The internal subdivision is unfolding as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure. Down from wave ((1)) high at 1374, wave (A) ended at 1220.1 as an impulse in lesser degree. Wave 1 of (A) ended at 1353.6, wave 2 of (A) ended at 1370.60, wave 3 of (A) ended at 1236.5, wave 4 of (A) ended at 1258.80, and wave 5 of (A) ended at 1220.10. Up from there, wave (B) bounce ended at 1341.6 as a zigzag in lesser degree. Wave A of (B) ended at 1303.7, wave B of (B) ended at 1245.6, and wave C of (B) ended at 1341.70. Wave (C) is now in progress as 5 waves impulse and can see more downside to reach 1150 - 1187 area. This is the 100% - 123.6% Fibonacci extension of (A)-(B). From this area, Index may see buyers for more upside or 3 waves bounce at least.

Elliott Wave View: Pullback in Russell Should See SupportShort term Elliott wave view in Russell (RTY_F) suggests the Index ended the correction from January 17, 2020 high in wave (4) at 1609.56. It has since resumed higher in wave (5) and the internal subdivision is unfolding as a 5 waves impulse Elliott Wave structure, The Index still needs to break above wave (3) at 1715.1 to avoid a double correction in wave (4). However, other US Indices such as YM_F (Dow Jones Futures), ES_F (S&P Futures), and NQ_F (Nasdaq) have broken above the previous peak, supporting more upside in Russell as well. Up from February 1 or wave (4) low, wave ((i)) ended at 1629.8 and wave ((ii)) pullback ended at 1619.80. Index then resumes higher in wave ((iii)) towards 1678.8 and pullback in wave ((iv)) ended at 1665.90. Index resumes the final leg higher in wave ((v)) towards 1695.20. The 5 waves move higher completed wave 1. Index is now within wave 2 pullback to correct cycle from February 1, 2020 low before the rally resumes. As far as pivot at 1609.56 low stays intact, expect pullback to find support in the sequence of 3, 7, or 11 swing for further upside.
