Wave (iii) is already longer than wave (i)

In our previous comments, we noted that the up wave to wave (ii) in September was greater than 62%. Therefore, it could support a 1.618 wave downward. So far, we note that wave (iii) is - in fact - longer than wave (i). This likely makes wave (iii) the extended wave in the sequence. Here is a chart.

ES Futures - 5 Hr - Two Channels

There are two channels of note. Price is currently residing in the steeper acceleration channel. Yet, be careful as within wave (iii), wave ii is much less than 62%. Therefore, wave i might be the extended wave within that sequence.

The Elliott Wave Oscillator on this 5 Hr time frame is on a low. If a series of 4's and 5's are made things could get bumpy along the lower daily Bollinger Band.

Have an excellent start to the week.

  1. What do you mean by "a series of 4's and 5's" ?

      Do you yet see how ridiculous the blue target of 4,720 to 4,780 looks because it is just so plain out of context? It makes no sense to post higher targets when the market is making daily lower lows.

      I left the post on the site specifically to illustrate this point.

  3. SPY 15-min: using cash, the lower low 'likely' means we are into the blue vth wave of blue (iii).

    https://www.tradingview.com/x/8mQIMVwg/

    It can go lower but should likely not exceed the length of wave iii, since iii is shorter in price than i.

    1. Thanks TJ,

      What do you think of overall economy from your vast experience. They cannot do more printing due to inflation. So is any other tool left ?

    2. I'm not TJ but for a USA & Global macro perspective, daily commentary at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-i0KKiuAsE is helpful for me.

    3. @manu .. tool for what? Goosing the markets again? In my experience although there 'is' inflation, it is not the major problem. The problem is the level of debt-to-GDP. Everyone knows it, but no one 'publicly' admits it. The level of debts restricts the options open to governments. Reduced government spending hasn't really been tried yet (i.e. reduction in defense programs, foreign aid programs, bureaucratic gov't programs, etc.), but perhaps it is time to, and then individual income taxes on the middle class and lower could be greatly reduced.

  6. SPY 15-min: just citing the red option that iv could be at this morning's high. Then a lower low would still be v of blue (iii). Things are getting good & messy.

    1. Check my thinking: Wave (iii) is shorter than (i) but it's not allowed to be the shortest wave so this wave (v) MUST be shorter than wave (iii). That is approx. 356.20 on SPY. Otherwise, something else is going on.

      Delete
    2. No! Pls look again at the above chart, and the title of this post: blue (iii) is already 'longer' than blue (i). What is going on with you? TJ.

  10. ES 30-min: I would put a 'wave-counting-stop' above 3,687 to indicate that the larger fourth wave (iv) might have started, and (iii) is at today's early-afternoon low. If the stop is not hit, and prices make a new low first, then (iii) is likely continuing.

  11. Some interesting NYSE statistics at this time: only marginally more declines over advances as follows: adv - 1,620 dec - 1,639; but look at the new-high new-low: NH - 14, NL - 859. That probably reflects breaking the June low this morning. TJ.

  12. SPY cash market refused to make a decision today regarding the end of (iii) and the beginning of (iv). Nothing rules out lower prices in (iii). The overnight will have some say in the matter. TJ.

  13. am i right to assume that entire down move from ATH can be complete ? you have counted another completed 3 down???? Historically, this is the point where this blog has struggled to identify major turn. whats different this time? curious

    2. marc I think what is being counted is the 5th wave of a potential expanding diagonal with A wave underway. I have not seen that coun anywhere else and imo opinion has most accurately predicted price action so far. It also solves a huge promlem I have had with the entire wave down: diagonals are the the other motive wave structures that are NOT impulsive.

    1. Yes. The attempts to keep prices aloft have been historic...remarkable how few see what is happening to global equities...

  15. ES 15-min after the overnight lower lows there is a possibility of a diagonal upward and it might be of the 5-3-5-3-5 type which could start a larger fourth wave or more upward. Watch the overnight low to see if it holds.

  16. ES 8-hour with about 92 candles wave (iii) is currently 1.272; it would not be an unreasonable expectation to get a 1.618 for wave (iii). The best alternate is that wave (iv), upward, has already started and could be up to the parallel, i.e. 38 - 50% x wave (iii). Chart update below, but it is the same form as the main chart above in the post.

    2. Is the larger channel shown an acceleration channel?

    3. The larger channel shown is the 'likely' impulse channel for the entire ((a)) wave. TJ.
