Day Two

Today is the second daily close in which the daily slow stochastic can begin to qualify for embedded status. Both of the red line (%K) and blue line (%D) of the slow stochastic in the indicator panel of the chart below are over the 80 level for the second day in-a-row.

ES Futures - Daily - Stochastic Still Overbought

According to Ira's analysis, the indicator usually just swings from over-sold to over-bought and back again without embedding. Clearly from the chart - in strong up trends - embedding might be expected. And that is certainly what we've had - a strong up trend.

In the last two days we have warned that the so-called Smart Money - the brokers, bankers, mutual fund and hedge fund managers that have a LOT more money at their disposal than you and I do - would likely lighten up at the upper daily Bollinger Band. That appears to be the case, and prices backed off, closing near their lows.

Tomorrow is Fed Chair Powell's virtual Jackson Hole Symposium speech around 10 AM. Will he embed the slow stochastic? Will the market let him. We must wait and see.

Have an excellent start to the evening.

  1. Could we have just finished iii down on the diagonal with the lower low, or are we in v down?

    1. As far as I can tell, we have just finished five-down as a diagonal in the ES futures. SPY on the other hand may have the 'five-down- shown earlier and might make a 'flat' second wave.

  4. Good morning all. ES 30-min. As was shown last night the potential diagonal in the ES futures finished with near-perfect form. Now the only question seems to be whether there is a new high after it or not.

    https://www.tradingview.com/x/iby9Ub9G/

    If there is a new all-time high after the diagonal, then somehow it was the end of a very long and protracted fourth wave of the prior wave set. One would think if that would have been the case, then the last wave of the diagonal 'might' have failed.

    Since the last wave of the diagonal did NOT fail, then it also qualifies to be a Leading Diagonal. If it is a Leading Diagonal, then price 'can' do a deep retrace - but does not have to - and it would have to remain below the prior high.

    Prior fractals are shown.

    1. It is likely this wave. Your numbering makes no sense .. 3 of 5. You really need to start learning about wave degrees.

    5. I am/was busy "trading" and not making beautiful charts or its labels. So it the labelling got ommitted.

    7. bro - I have been trading longer than your blog exists, And you are going to end up changing these labels anyways at spx 5000- If you are so super edgie on your labels then lets bring out our trading accounts here in the public? So chill for a minute here.
      I respect you for your age so dont take undue advantage and thrashing people for writting 5 instead of v.

    1. On the daily ES I have (W) at 114 days and C of (Y) at 108 if counted from March 25, using triangle correction.

      Delete
    2. My chart on the right points out what happens if the triangle for B ends at Mar 25 low (b). I believe that disrupts the C leg and negates the diagonal.

      From TJ's chart, note the weekly bar he references regarding a triangle. He's not using the Mar 25th low. Doing so would eliminate the (a) and (b) of the diagonal's first leg up (3 waves). That would leave only (c) which is five waves, not 3.

      Delete
    4. Hmm I had thought his A and B in the picture reflect the smaller degree expanded flat that makes up B wave, with the mentioned alt B wave being the triangle that was not labeled to Mar 25. Feb 1 to Mar 25 being the triangle. TJ, clarification?
