Down to Lower Daily Bollinger Band

On the ES 4-hr chart, so far, this pattern is holding up as it is. Price would need to get up over 3,912 to invalidate it. As long as the pattern holds, it remains as is. The best alternate at this time is for a pattern that takes even longer downward - shown in red.


 

The alternate comes from two items: First, there is a non-divergent low as shown by the Elliott Wave Oscillator at wave (iii) / (i). Second, it is not possible to count cash in the same manner at the futures because (iv)/(ii) is longer in price in the cash market than (ii). So, it is possible (ii) is a 'b' wave. That is not the case in the futures market.

Anyway, doing the best I can with a very choppy wave. Today price got down to the lower daily Bollinger Band. The longer pattern might allow it to get down to the 100-day SMA. The alternate might become the main count on further development.

Have an excellent start to the evening.

  1. ET, Nice job tracking this! Wonder if it's possible to finish this wave 5 up over night? Futures are on the right track, Q's don't look good IMO.

  2. Might be getting a bit overworked there ET (hopefully noy under paid).

    Cannot be black (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) & (v) down i aform of a contracting diagonal.

    Why? Because black (v) is already longer in time than black (iii).

    1. I noticed that too .. which is another reason for the red count. I'm just not quite so dogmatic about 'time' in a diagonal. There have been very few cases to study at this degree of trend. It may very well be .. 'high' probability, and something to study to see if the larger pattern works out. TJ.

    2. Gold looks like a large C wave down has started on the monthly chart and everyone still seems very bullish on it.

    3. In addition, gold/silver ratio is reversing with weekly bull divergences, which means silver will fall more than gold. There's even more bulls in silver assuming 50 dollars and much higher this year.

    1. 👍 nice work. I’m thinking we get one more lower low. But the down TL. matched up well at this recent low. I would like to see Q’s test 300 area. ATB

  7. Good morning all. Here is the ES 30-min intraday wave-counting-screen with updated daily pivot points. The first candle since the open is currently an outside candle.

  8. The lower low in the EWO overnight in ES does not help any contracting diagonal argument.

  9. ES 30-min; there are two new fractals established at this mornings low and high. It's a pretty wide-ranging field of play at the moment. One way to count cash SPX is - since a new cash low was not made this morning - is as 'a' down of (iii). Possibility of being in a 'b' wave, up, now.

  10. TJ,
    Does that mean we are going up?

  11. ES 30-min: futures can be counted as w-x-y, up. Cash can be counted as a-b-c, up, as per the short term cash chart below. c = 0.618 x a.

    2. ..as far as I can tell; SPX cash has the new low. Can be wave (iii) of the diagonal, provided lengths stay correct.

    3. ..ES futures have the new low too.

  13. ES 1-min; this is quite the impulse down; not sure where ((5)) will end up yet as ((3)) is longer than ((1)). Need to check some other lengths.

  14. SPX-cash 4-hr; so as a very practical matter; SPX cash is good for a third wave down to 3,739; but probably better above 3,750. If it invalidates it is a 'true' third wave down, and we were counting in the downward direction.

  18. SPX 4-hr; downward wave is now too long for a diagonal, and is likely a third wave or 'c' wave of some type.
