The targets are hitting accurately for both time and price. The model is set for weekly bars to eliminate noise occurring on a daily basis.

"Yes, the rally in SPX started with strength. The largest up day on the DOW was followed by the strongest reversal to the upside in 9 years.
This week is a consolidation week. A close around 2,560 would be about right, next week much stronger with the push into the 2,600's. The daily chart is breaking out."
Yes SC, I agree. SPX has a very bearish look from the Dec 24 low.
However I don't share your longer term prospect. I think a repelling of price at the 50 DMA is classic bear market action. We are about to see a continuation of the Wave iii decline which commenced on Dec 2
Sears bk is already priced in and govt. shutdown don't affect companies unless defense or transportation. I would use news to make predictions in a cycle....just use the cycle...
bank earnings will be the tell, they know how to short also, look for interest sensitive sales products to start seeing higher revenue for MM's.....
i hope your right and it goes strait down i took a big position but will buy more if i have to i am looking to short uvxy when it pops up to 80 85 if that happens
"People in North and South America, a large part of Europe and Africa may get a glimpse of a total lunar eclipse overnight from January 20 to 21, the last such event until 2022.
During the eclipse, the Moon will still be visible, but in a shade of red.
That's why a lunar eclipse is often called a "blood Moon.""
SC if i understand well your call, you are waiting the start of a down wave on S&p500 from a top around 2610 - 2620 to 2460 . This wave can start between now and the blood moon ( 20 - 21 january), with target for end january around 2460.. it this right? many thanks..
"Following a controversial amendment, the U.K. government now has just three working days to map out a new plan of action. With Parliament not set to sit on Friday, that means a new plan must be agreed with Europe and presented to U.K. lawmakers by the close of business on Monday January 21. May confirmed in Parliament that she would adhere to this."
If the Sears’ unsecured creditors formally object to the bid, the bankruptcy judge will need to assess the merits of their claim on Jan. 31. Lampert needs the judge’s sign-off in order for his bid to be official."
bull buying stampedes last 17-26 days with pullbacks in between, were at day 14.... they are forcing sideline money into the game, earnings season is not the time to short, afterwards much better.... the banks are doing much better than you mention above, and JPM didn't plunge as you state.....no more action verbs and adjectives needed to make a statement. It was wrong...
This rally seems to have serious legs. Rather than a retracement, SPX has powered ahead with not a down day this week. 2700 looks more likely before we see any significant decline imo. Don't fight the Fed and the Fed have gone more dovish.
some confluences happening now timing wise: 1) Terry Laundry's T method using the last major high of December 3 is showing a top on January 18. 2) Full Moon/Lunar eclipse tonight at 10:17 PM local time (Mountain Standard) 3) Venus Jupiter conjunction early Tuesday morning (before the market opens).
Any one of these could coincide with a turn in market direction. All three suggests it's pretty likely that Friday was some kind of top, possibly carrying over into trading on Tuesday. If instead the market continues the rally, I will start to seriously consider that the Christmas low was THE low and it's just up up and away from here. The recent breadth thrust lends support to that outlook.
Just an FYI regarding Laundry's T method: Another larger T is projecting some kind of top around mid-March, with a lower probability that that top could occur in early March. Also, note that the T method doesn't always work! (Does anything?)
I just did a quick study re Venus Jupiter conjunctions going back to 2005. There were 14 during this time period. The 15th will be the one on Tuesday morning. Results posted below (but don't know whether they will format correctly). Summary is 1) most were tops, 2) the change in trend occurred with 6 trading days of the conjunction (most were within zero to 3 trading days), and 3) the new trend usually lasted 20 days or longer, several lasted more than 50.

Yes, 50 dma is most important right now, and agree it will repel.
DeleteSC, when you say "March will be the month for SPX plunge to the lows", do you see a retest of the low or a lower low? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteRetest technically though a slightly lower low is possible.
DeleteThe deck is stacked in favour of the bears. We have the longest government shutdown in US history. Sears bankruptcy. Brexit. Bank earnings.
ReplyDeleteBear time!!
SC u expecting. 2440 to 2750. And lower low in march. R u still expecting higher high for 5th wave later
ReplyDeleteNo 5th wave. The market decided no in December. SPX has topped.
DeleteSC, just a little confused, if SPX topped, shouldn't it drop much lower instead of just retest of the low?
DeleteThe model predicts bulls will celebrate July 4th with big summer bounce.
DeleteSC, how high SPX at end of Feb?
ReplyDelete2,440 SPX next, then February looks positive but only mildly bullish to 2,585 SPX in the model.
DeleteSPX is effectively down into April from the high forming now.
Beetle, wait until you see my VIX chart...
ReplyDeleteSears bk is already priced in and govt. shutdown don't affect companies unless defense or transportation. I would use news to make predictions in a cycle....just use the cycle...

As always charts, the cycles, the math.
DeleteWe do have a confluence of news this week.
The media will find a reason for the selloff.
When the tide rises boats rise, and when the tide sinks boats sink.
Citigroup slips on dancing shoes.
ReplyDeleteApple still cooked.
ReplyDeleteSold UPRO $37.75.
ReplyDeleteBought SPXU $42.20.
ReplyDeleteim long spxs 27.94
Deletethere is apossibility in my opinion that we hit 2605 end of day
Deletethen down in my opinion if thats the case i will buy more spxs
I think SPX down for a few days then might try one last gasp to hit 2,600's. Later in the week price drops off the cliff.
ReplyDeletei hope your right and it goes strait down i took a big position but will buy more if i have to i am looking to short uvxy when it pops up to 80 85 if that happens

Surprise! JPM plunges!!
ReplyDeletespx 2610 like i said
Deletei see jpm morgan up now

DeleteBank results have been coming in weak. JPM managed small gain, Citi tested gap. Not looking good for the banks.
Deletebuy the dip script to 2610 2612 then down
ReplyDeleteseems like we are over that red resistance now.. do you see us going straight up to that 2700 area?
ReplyDeletethanks
The red line is not exact. Band of resistance is intact.

ReplyDeleteYes, that is right.
Deletemany thanks SC. projection target are 2618 and 2635 ( close gap too)
Deletelet'see
possible 2620 on expanded diagonal
ReplyDeleteSPXU weekly great chart for the bears. SPXU can come down $1 more before it spikes. Perfect setup.
ReplyDeleteUVXY target reached.
ReplyDeleteSCJanuary 10, 2019 at 8:13 AM
"UVXY should see $58. $40's in February."
For SPX I'd estimated 2,625 to 2,635. Gap at 2,635.
ReplyDeleteNotice that SPX has taken into 4th week to recover from 1 week of losses in December.
Brexit linking up with bloodmoon, how lovely.

Deleteso you are thinking a top on the 22nd of jan
ReplyDeletethere is apossibility of 2644
ReplyDeletemarket still strong 4 now.

ReplyDeletelet's see..
bull buying stampedes last 17-26 days with pullbacks in between, were at day 14....
ReplyDeletethey are forcing sideline money into the game, earnings season is not the time to short, afterwards much better....

VIX green today with SPX green. When this happens pay attention. Always a clear warning!
ReplyDeletesox index not confirming rally even though the spx could go a little higher there is a possibility to see 2640 before we drop

Yes!!! Thanks Michael my friend! Very nice!!
DeleteThere is a possibility that we hit the down sloping line of 2700
ReplyDeletenot likely thou i am seeing alot of negative divergence lets see
what happens

ReplyDeleteSC IT LOOKS LIKE YOUR CHART FROM DEC 24TH IS LEGIT 2700 PROBALLY WILL COME I SHOULD OF HELD THAT UVXY SHORT AND UPRO A LITTLE LONGER

DeleteI think that spx will go down till Jan 30-31
