Ugly, But Still Legal

Here's the daily chart. I'm going by the measurements only. A new high for (iii) or a longer fourth wave, (iv) are certainly possible.

ES Futures - Daily - Potential Diagonal

The market has made the current trend lines, not me. I just connected the prices. At this point, I am going to refrain from calling it nested waves higher because of the proximity of the overhead daily Bollinger Band, the diverging RSI, the diverging hourly MACD (not shown) and the over-bought daily slow stochastic, below.

ES Futures - Daily - Overbought

From this chart, as Ira says, keep in mind price is "above" the line in the sand and has positive bias - until it is not and does not. Also, "up" Mondays sometimes - not always - lead to Tuesday reversals. In any event, I'll be treading lightly to heed Ira's guideline of not buying new positions over a daily Bollinger Band. (Not to be taken as trading or investment advice - just a paraphrase of Ira's guideline.)

Have a good start to the evening.

    AD line divergence still holds with the up day today.

  6. Following this 15-minute chart at the moment..the numbers are bar counts. Note that wave 2 (if it is that) is 4 x 1 in 'time'.

  9. We are now equal to or past the time where a 'fourth' wave would be longer in time than a 'second' wave, regardless of what form the fourth wave took from here.

    1. ..also there is overlap on the 'third' wave which would legitimize any running fourth wave, if one occurred.

    I see that you ignored my q. I see a lot of mentions of your youtube channel on this blog but couldn't find a link. Do you not do it anymore?

    1. I see but still if you would be so kind as to give me the link to your youtube channel, I'd appreciate it as I'm studying your old blog posts.

    2. ..the YouTube channel was removed due to misuse and piracy by others.

  11. In the very, very short term downward count (1 - min), so far, the only impulse is the 'c' wave.

  12. Expanding diagonal from the top in MSFT to get things going?

    ReplyDelete
  13. b of D on gold 4hr triangle may be in.

    ReplyDelete
  14. This one is for all those who say, 1) a "B" wave just 'can't' be greater than a 1.382 wave, 2) when a "B" wave is over 1.618, then it 'must' result in a "running wave" or triangle. Sorry, folks. "B" waves can be "awful"!

    1. ...downward wave can "currently" be counted as w-x-y (as opposed the as shown labeling of a-b-c) IF the fourth wave is over. Since the second leg of the downward move from b or x is greater than the first leg, it is 'possible' for an expanding diagonal c wave to form - much as Joe M mentions for MSFT, above - to maintain a-b-c instead of w-x-y. Welcome to the wonderful world of Elliott alternates.

  15. Interesting candlestick on daily S&P 500 futures. Also interesting if the low from the prior day's outside up is taken out tomorrow. https://invst.ly/ptx0w
