$SPX - Deep Pullback Confirmed

The deep pullback scenario played out and price is approaching the main support.  The 2,750 deep pullback target was reached today.  An underthrow is possible though.


Upside is becoming quite attractive to the magical 3,000 SPX target, and we would expect that in approximately 6 months. 


The weak bull market continues with the main channel intact.

  1. We have seen confirmation of the deep pullback which is great since it is the most profitable scenario!

    "Yes, that is correct. The difference is the size of the pullback. Shallow pullback to test white trendline or deep pullback to 2,750 main support."

  2. Notice that the midfork was overthrown by 40 points. A 40 underthrow gives a price of 2,680 SPX. So possible we could see that figure on a capitulation.

  15. SC: Is this a buy opportunity in your opinion ?I suppose yes!
    After this rebound can we see another minimum in the first days of November before up trend resume finally?

    1. Yes, SPX is trading at main channel support. It may see a little lower on an underthrow before the uptrend resumes.

      Delete
  16. 2691 should be the bottom if it gets aggressive 2650 I'll be buying a monster position down there

    ReplyDelete
  17. Midterm elections are the next big event. November 6th. So there is a little time to work with here to form a low prior to the election.

    ReplyDelete
  18. The meltup to the 3,000 SPX target will likely kick off around November 6th.

    ReplyDelete
  19. The weekly SPX is not oversold yet.

    1. How deep do you think S&P goes by Nov 6th? thx

    2. I estimated 2,680 based on a 40 point underthrow which is the same size as the 40 point overthrow of the mid channel.

      Delete
    3. SPX looking strong with a bounce off main support. Might see 2,785 with a final lower low to finish the decline.

      Delete
    4. the only thing that bothers me is the amount of days
      we are below the average

    5. That is true on the daily but the bigger picture looks good. Weekly SPX and averages are extremely strong.

  23. 10% correction is 2646....could overthrow a bit

  24. Bears are trapped for now. Resistance 2,785 SPX.

    ReplyDelete
  25. SC, given the recent action in the markets, do you still think there is chance for indices to get back to highs? Lot of technical damage has been done in very short time. thx

    ReplyDelete

    1. Yes, the weekly chart is very strong, and pointing to further upside. The weekly is almost oversold. In the February decline it didn't get oversold at all. So yes, a rally to new highs is expected from oversold.

      Delete
    2. SPX is more oversold now than in February.

      Delete
  26. i believe a rip your face off rally is coming thats my opinion bought more spxl at 40

  27. I won't be a bit surprised if we go up really quick into November

  28. SC
    Are you looking to take a bigger position here or are you looking for a lower low? Or neither?
    Thank you for all of your great calls.

    1. Yes, increasing. It's tough to catch a capitulation right at the bottom so the strategy is to space out the entries with some time. The daily chart is about to turn up so I think we are close. A bounce next looks likely. Lower lows are possible but the reward is becoming attractive.

      Delete
    2. Bounce next, maybe one more chance for a lower low afterwards? Timing is looking good for the end of this decline. Coming up to the midterms. I am confident it'll resolve to the upside.

  29. Bought @ 2640 Lot´s of divergences, extreme sentiment, oversold conditions you name it. In my charts i had these price zones. Glad it worked out. Let´s rock.

  30. Yes, continuing to build long positions, and increasing. The daily chart for SPX is a common one, and it is in a configuration to turn up very soon.

    My feeling is that a move is coming towards 2,750 next.

  31. The economy is far stronger than people realize. I see it first hand. It is absolutely booming, big numbers are coming. I think we will see 6 to 8% GDP based on the volumes.

  32. long spxl 39.50 i believe a very sharp rallly is coming tommorow
    just my opinion

  33. The only ingredient left is that the weekly SPX is still not quite oversold. It's close...

    1. Sc what's your target spx to down side 2580?

    2. All of my downside targets have been met. I think it is really close to a low. Right now we are testing the 2016 SPX trendline. It still looks good for a run to 3,000.

      Delete
    3. That's why I bought today I thought it was close to a low

  34. sold 39 and 40 dollar spxl stock at 43.40 will buy back if we dip

  35. This pop was showing on the daily. It has turned up, and probably see higher prices for a week or so next.

    1. SC are you expecting a secondary dip to test the low again

    2. Prices likely to move higher for a week or so. 2,750 is a given. 2,800 possible. Having said that I suspect a washout low mid November.

    3. SC , this Washout low in mid november is a good point to add long position ? if we can see price lower 2700 i think so. Is target always 3000 around february 2019?

      many thanks !!

    4. If the washout low occurs SPX would see one more lower low. Following, yes, new high. It would make a nice entry.

  39. Short term resistance 2,790 SPX.
    Prices can cool off a little. Support 2,730. I think one more pop after. 2,830 possible. Then risk of the washout low later in the month.

  41. SC: so now you are wait a temporary market top around 2830 in a few days and than a pull back or a washout low around end month and finally a big up rally to 3000.. It seems twisted but that's what I understand. is it right?
    Many thanks

    1. The daily and weekly are at odds with each other. Daily is pointing up and weekly is pointing down. Often this situation resolves with a washout.

      Delete
    2. SPX can settle back short term 2,750 and still move to 2,830. Yes, generally that is the idea.

  42. SC do you have a chart for oil or know where the price is going?

    Thank you

    1. Short term oil is looking oversold and bounce soon, but the Saudis have problems to resolve which is keeping pressure on oil. For the next year oil is consolidating in the $45 to $80 range.

      The Saudi Aramco IPO was delayed quite simply, I think, waiting for higher oil prices. $150 or even $200 oil in 2020 would be attractive for the IPO!

    1. Yes, SPX is following the washout pattern.


      SPX has dropped into the 2,730 range as anticipated. The next level to watch is SPX 2,830 to 2,850.

      This is a "line in the sand". SPX needs to find support this week above 2,700 otherwise SPX will retest the low prior to the run to 2,850.
