The market has been acting very well but can the momentum continue into next week? Banks and Oil continue to lead the way but metals and mining stocks have certainly shined today. Market seems to be sensing that the Fed will moderate after the next rate hike. I think we hit a low and will begin Wave 3.
My current stance that we are in a Wave 2 Correction is being challenged. Price remains below the 40 month moving average with still no sign of a bottom. The Bollinger Band Width measurement shows growing strength in the trend. A spike in the VIX that also can indicate a bottom has not yet occurred. The only positive I see is that there was a little support at...
In recent reviews of long term trends, I have noticed that the 40 month moving average has marked the bottom levels for Waves 2 and 4 in long term impulse moves.

I propose that we are completing...
Hard to know if this recent move is the start of a wave 5 up in the corrective rally, or wave 1 of a new downtrend. Lots of resistance in the 3950-4050 range.

I've never seen anyone present an Elliott Wave cycle on this time scale. Although the move doesn't maintain a parallel channel, I put forth the case that the Depression era was Wave 2. Wave 4, from 2002 to 2009. Wave 5 likely has much longer to go. Looks like maybe we are just in wave 4 of Wave 1 of 5 for the final 5th long term wave. Any thoughts?
Not yet breaking out. Downward trend still intact. Bought a bunch of cheap October puts just in case. PM rallies hardly ever last.
