$SPX - Gradual Decline Phase Complete

The orange support from October 29th analysis was reached last week.  This is anticipated to be a very strong level of support.  Therefore, the gradual decline phase since mid-September should now be complete. 

A rally phase is the next step according to the big picture outlook for SPX.

Short term, a bounce to test just above the white trendline may occur shortly.  Ultimately the upper boundary of the turquoise broadening top formation may be reached during the big picture rally phase.

  1. I feel strongly about this level of support and so went long at 1378 SPX last week.

    Positive cycles should be approaching. Among other evidence, VIX was giving good confirmations of a reversal last week.

  2. I'll plan to take profit in the area near the white trendline and just above on an initial bounce. This is because I think it may take a few drives to reach the turquoise target zone with dips in between.

    1. Hi Joe ;) so thats your line in the sand. If it gets broken, do you have any downside targets? Any feeling regarding this rollover, i remember you were thinking that we may head down into November.

      Thank you.

    2. Hi AM....

      My line in the sand is time.....I am starting to build my long position today. This is a 10 yr cycle bottom coming which is searching the bottom. The time window can get into the 3rd week of Nov. Best to ya and good trading! joed

    3. Thanks Joe,

      I think we'll bounce this week, and I also see a weak spot 3rd week of Nov.

  4. What happened to the 'short term november rally' ?

    ReplyDelete
  5. Definitely a little slower to setup. Bottoming now, and yes, rally in Nov, and likely carry into Dec as well.

    ReplyDelete
  6. VIX getting hammered. Rally coming for SPX must be soon imo.

      2013 is a whole different game.........I am refferring to a cycle bottoming not following! Best, joed

  9. Gold/Silver still have some time imo. The Gold bull could end with a parabolic move. One pattern of mine suggests 3 drives to a high. The first drive was the Sept push imo.

    ReplyDelete
  10. SPX continuing to hold well. Looks ready to rally hard.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Initially, a bounce could test just over the white trendline. 1410-1415 area give or take.

    ReplyDelete
  12. What's your timing on that target? Usually coming out of a bottom of this magnitude we see one or two big green daily candles in a row, which hasn't happened yet here. Thanks...

    1. Yes, that is what I am thinking also. Timing in the next day or two.

  13. Hi Joed

    Are you seeing the same view point as SC and that we head higher now into the rest of November? or you still seeing further downside, cause remembered that you posted a DOW chart weeks ago targeting around 12000 in Nov.


    Thanks!

    1. Not to speak for Joe, but I think the emphasis was on time rather than price.

      I am not rapped around targets as I show support/resistance for time to run into......SC is correct as my concern is always time and the length of time with a run! Targets are the END RESULT of time sqing in reality......I am a buyer! Best, joed

  14. With todays price action do u think we can go lower first before hitting your 1410-1415 spx area ?? At what lower level in spx will invalidation happen ?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Although still sluggish it seems that there is a floor under the market. Ideally I would like to see it hold right around this level.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Bounce imminent, in my opinion...see chart on the blog under my handler.

    ReplyDelete
  17. The rally just doesnt want to come

    ReplyDelete
  18. Any thoughts SC ? U still holding the long position ?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yes still holding. I'm going to give it some time. Frustrating that the VIX has fallen hard the last few days but yet SPX at these levels.

      Delete
    2. I don't consider this dip a breach of support because S&P futures are just testing the low of Nov 9th.

    1. I want to see some more and review.

    2. Thanks. I think now the bounce is right there, but the size is what I am interested in. Need to see a good rally, but guess that would depend on the fiscal cliff resolution.

      Delete
    3. There are specific things I am looking for regarding several patterns I have, and that is why I need to see more.

  20. surprise November rally ??? gradual decline phase complete ??? ummm not quite

    ReplyDelete
  21. People need to remember these are predictions only. The future cannot be determined beforehand.

  22. Today should provide a short term low, but NOT a buy signal yet.
    Internal tech data has not issued a buy and the ARMS index yesterday was only 1.27- which means more selling is coming soon.
    Jaywiz index on Tues was .27= very bearish
    Wed = .34, also bearish
    UNDER .50 is generally considered bearish for the next day
    EKG & PD resources have been incredible for weeks.
    Later

    1. Pretty slow day today. I want to see things unfold for the next day or two.

  24. SPX at 1350 is on the EDGE of the CLIFF.

    Internal tech data REITERATED another SELL SIGNAL TODAY

    But tomorrow should end higher

    THE ACTUAL bottom is coming soon
    Later

  31. Joed .. do you think we'll be at over SPX 1440 by Jan 1st?

      My work suggests price will be at 1440 or near it by that time.........once again as time moves on I can figure closer as time squares price! Best, joed

  33. Hi SC

    LOOKS Like a CHOPPY week with no confirmed direction Nov19-21
    BUT
    Im looking for the 23rd to be a DEFINED PIVOT LOW.

    Strength the week after giving a solid rally into an early December high

    Highs could possibly regain all the losses of the past month

    Later

  34. Retest 1355 area this week, then over 1400 imo. My plan is to take profit on this trade around 1415 SPX.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Short term resistance in the 1380's.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Most likely quiet holiday week.

    1. Well I was definitely early in turning bullish, but it is playing out. I may look to take profit next few days if it grinds higher, and then reload around 1355 to 1360 area.

      The quiet VIX told the story last week.

    1. I have been standing aside, and waiting for it to cool off. Updated charts are coming for it. It is a little early I think, but later this week or early next week.
