Our thoughts last week were for a serious plunge, the Dow ended very weak but the decline remains orderly. Almost 22% down, this bear market is getting legs now...just waiting for that capitulation event. It's baked in the cake that this week will see the towels being thrown, possible 3000 point drop. October is the favourite month to crash markets, once the Fed...

Last week, the Dow popped early as indicated and sold of heavily into Friday. Clear as a bell wave threes down are unfolding. 29600 was our first target...easily hit, now our sights are on 24,000 and possibly 23,000. The next 7-10 days are going to be extraordinary, the severity will be evident this week...the catalyst to cause capitulation could be from Europe,...

Last week we called for the Dow to rally towards 32600ish for a wave two rally to complete. We also did mention that the bounce would expire itself and what an expiry! The coming week has two options, a slight bounce early on low volume and breath or a vertical plunge by the end of the week. We are in the denial phase still, bulls clinging to hope that the Fed...

Our midweek idea called for a rally off the lows towards 32k, three days of average volume buying has taken the Dow up 1000 points and possibly towards either 32,600 or 33,000...it may truncate below these levels, it's not necessary to reach them. We remain short in very high confidence that this bounce will expire itself this week and resume the bear market...

Today's rally with higher volume is the likely beginning of minor wave 2 up in an ABC minor rally. Wave 1 down of 3 looks complete, perhaps a week to complete this rally before the dam bursts. A target of 32,200-32,500 could be reached, not necessary to reach these levels. The clock is fast running down towards that critical point of inflection. This market is on...

Back in 2020 we warned about what was really going on in this controlled world and what was coming. Before we get into the depths of this coming wipe out, we look back on the past weeks price action for the Dow and attempt to navigate a likely path for this week. Anything could happen any day right now, the fragility of these markets is an understatement. We are...

Sometimes in technical analysis, it just works perfectly...this week was a classic example in wave pattern completion and confirmation to boot. The Dow finished the day on it's low after a savage mauling ignited by investors being spooked by the Fed's refusal to pivot on rates. The same Fed who juiced these markets by pumping trillions of freebies into folks...

Firstly I would like to thank all those people who follow me and like our ideas. In a very challenging market, it's never easy fighting against the tide. The Dow finished Friday with enough downside breath to suggest strongly that this counter rally is over. Our midweek idea called the rally complete and only needed a further strong down day to confirm...Friday...

A short update. The Dow has completed a major top early this week as we stated in our weekend idea. From the 4th January to the 17th June's bear market low, the Dow has corrected exactly a Fibonacci sequence of 61.8%...this on top of all the converging data, points to a major top. See the small throwover on Monday's candle and reversal today. Confirmation will...

What appeared to be the end of the corrective rally, instead progressed higher last week and towards 34,000 for completion. Bears have endured a typical bear market rally that seeks to flush them out, more especially those who over leverage. The declining trend line will very likely be touched early this week, a critical area that will determine the top and turn...

In what seems eternity, the Dow grinds towards it's final conclusion before turning down with force. Bears have endured weeks of counter rally, a rally fed with the notion that rate rises will taper off. Friday's payrolls were just the tonic that the Fed needs to sustain the designed goal of destroying the markets and wealth. Back in 2015, we knew high or hyper...

Last week we had high confidence that the Dow would top around 32K and reverse. Our bear flag and retracement convergence looked a great setup. The Fed's 700 Billion spending bill again, ignited markets beyond our thinking...an ABC counter rally has the C wave at higher degree. Now 33K area is the target and may even throwover a little beyond our trendline. Over...

Fractal777

Last weeks rally ended with a down day as weakness crept in on Friday. The rally could very well be complete, an ABC move is complete and so enough price action suggests an imminent wave 3 down to commence this week. A bear flag has now developed just above 32K which has been our target for some time, the Fed will raise rates by another 75 points minimum this...

Retail sales climbing a measly 1% and was enough to ignite the Dow 2% on Friday. Did the market forget that prices are at least 9.1% higher officially and more like 20%...folks are buying up and front running price rises leading to increased sales. The jokers who pretend to manage our countries finances and affairs are culpable in this suicide of our economies....

The proverbial calm before the storm, no-mans land and an eerie quiet has been placed into markets. It is these times that often produce a surprise to jolt those asleep to what is really going on without their understanding or care. The Dow creeped higher this week on low volume again...typical bear bounce action. Looking like an ABC counter move since the 17th...

Our last idea called the mega rally last Friday as another fake out, again the selling immediately returned until Friday this week where we had a soft rally on low volume. Markets are trading heavy again, no real will to buy as stocks are distributed from strong hands to weak. So where from here?....a few scenarios can play out but they all lead to the same ugly...

The Dow finished powerfully last week as those most pessimistic covered their positions, forcing a larger move than was real, genuine buying. Many are now beginning to see the Fed's goofing and spoofing will reverse, but not before they demolish these markets into submission. This relief rally is little more than yet another sucker move to shake out the bears and...

Bears had another rewarding week as markets reacted to the Fed's decision. At least six months behind the inflation curve, the Fed decided to sacrifice the economy by raising rates and deflating markets for their goal of reducing demand by evaporating wealth. Supply must increase to reduce inflation - "Just transitory" said Yellen last year...here we are in the...
