SPY Ending wave v of (3) Bearish Reaction: Relief Rally (4) TBD
Mis à jour
Merry Christmas Traders!
We find SPY near the termination of a minor fifth subwave v of Intermediate wave (3), which in turn is part of a larger primary wave One. Primary Wave One should terminate near SPY ETF price 219 on/about 31 Dec 18, after a 28-day decline from 3 Dec wave origin.
Chart describes constituent components of Primary Wave One, including a i-ii-iii-iv-v minor negative impulse wave terminating in an A-B-C flat correction, and the subsequent steep decline to the "Christmas Crash" on 24 Dec, consisting of (so far) a wave 1-2-3- incomplete impulse.
It seems likely that minor wave v of Intermediate (3) has terminated at Monday 24 Dec prices, given Fib extension of wave iii in price and time after four down days; however, a real possibility of a v wave Extension Path exists, shown as Alternate Path in chart. Given weak price action, panic-level selling could drive price to 226.5 before a 4th wave bounce. Intermediate Wave (5) target is 219.5, possible extension shown could drive prices as low as 211.5 or less.
NB: Minor wave iii dropped ETF 10 pips, minor v has taken 7 more. Third waves are never the shortest waves. Selling waves typically last 3-5 days. Should get a turn on either 26 or 27 Dec for a likely 0.382 Fib retracement. A higher lift is possible but unlikely, given EW alternating wave theory, we already had a strong lift in 2nd reaction wave with a 0.50 Fibo retrace (noted on chart), ergo, expect this 4th wave will be relatively weak. A more robust Retracement Bear Rally of the entire December impulse would be expected after the completion of the (5) Intermediate Wave in December's bearish impulse, target shown in blue box as a rough possible estimate of ~ 254 - 265. Following that countertrend Secondary Rally, expect a powerful and severe Secondary Bearish Reaction with another 5-wave Impulse down to price levels reaching back to 2016, or even lower, should Panic and Despair prevail.
Longer-term, I expect only more Bearishness. In 2008, NAS lost 80%, Dow lost 45% and SPX went off over half. This one will be worse. After 86 years since the Crash ended in August 1932, prices reached astronomical new highs in September 2018. There is a distinct possibility that this represents the culmination of a Grand Elliott Wave Supercycle, postulating Grand Wave V completed on 3 Sep 2018; if so, the Great Bear may finally be coming out of hibernation. Of course, this is speculative theory and remains unproved, nonetheless, it is a fascinating concept: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_supercycle

What a wonderful trading day- we had no less than three textbook formations: early in session a perfectly balanced inverted H&S led to a failed rally, rejected at resistance of opening price level. That became part of a cup & handle with a bearish 'bull flag' handle sloping down until early afternoon, when the breakdown of B wave led to exactly stop at 0.62 Fibo (LOL Dow -620 off 1K, what a perfect FIBO!) from which the reversal of much-anticipated C wave carried index to complete the zig-zag countertrend correction. Make no mistake, the primary trend is still DOWN!Transaction en cours
Overnite futures high for Sand P of 2517 suggests pivot might occur at 0.618 Fibo price for SPY of 249.5. Trading premarket at 249.33...Note
In first hour of Friday trading we got the double tooth top formation in opening, then lower. Buying puts on SPY- GLTA!Note
+10% on puts in first hour and index respecting the Fibo 0.618 level; rejected!Transaction en cours
Monster short covering rally late PM respected the 0.618 Fibo in body of candle (wick popped above it for a moment); tentatively calling wave 4 complete but expect one more try at a rally to form a right shoulder, probably Monday morning for a short entry.Transaction en cours
On a right shoulder in H&S on MOnday PM buying puts- Jan 245 SPY put. GLTA!Transaction en cours
Added to position pushback from 250 is strong will soon pivot, Fibo time running out on this rally, may break as soon as 1-02 or 1-03 after a week in countertrend.Trade fermée: ordre d’arrêt atteint
Runaway rally probly ending soon, see later idea.
