$SPX - 30min Chart

Short term support and resistance lines are shown on this chart.  The rally hit resistance at the orange fork and retreated hitting some support at the end of the day today. 

My cycle work indicates some selling should occur into Oct 31st or Nov 1st.  Around Nov 3rd looks quite positive though.

I've shown some larger scale charts previously, and will take it one step at a time as well with the short term charts into the next turn date.

  2. Bloomberg reported that EU talk with the Banks at a deadlock. I think the banks are probably planning to trigger a credit default event, and activate the CDS claims.

  3. What will happen to commodities specially gold and silver if Europe fail to come with solution

  4. Wasn't suprising to see the bounce this morning since closed yesterday at some support. Now trading at the red line. Financials haven't followed through as much on the downside this morning. Looks like a short term bounce may set up again soon.

  5. Regardless of bounces though NDX is weak, leading down, and suggesting more downside in coming days.

    SC, in other words you don't see much downside anymore?

  10. My bigger picture point of view hasn't changed. However, at this point we are seeing a lot of volatility, and sideways shuffle. So probably best to take it one step at a time with that being the case.

  11. I can make a case for 1300+

    Looks like the drop to 1220 was a wave 2 and now we are on wave 3 (if futures hold up at the open). Wave 3 should be about 70 points (1290) then a 4, and finally 5 to 1300+

    That should get most of the bears out of the market and break the shorts.

  12. ckorey, I agree. That wave 4 or 5 should be the early November cycle high.

    There's also the potential for something bigger by the end of the year coming out of my 1998 cycle low.

  13. Zig Zag,

    Wow! Could be I guess. It is a bit far out for how I trade but I will keep an eye on it.

    All traders should note.............trading without bias is ket to making money. I really don't care as long as I'm on the right side of the market.

    Also.............If you are a beginner.........trading long is much easier than short. When you trade short your timing better be perfect or you will get your face ripped off. On the long side you have a better shot at getting even. Either way trade what you see not what you think

  14. Great work, ZZ. Will be really curious to see how we open an whether or not the powers that be want to fade this move to the upper bollinger band on the hourly. Good luck to everyone. Long from SPX 1230 earlier today ...
