Technical Analysis Of Major Markets
Gold
As you can see on the attached Daily Gold Chart, it appears that wave *iii* could be complete at the 1167.90.
We had a *iii*=2.618*i* projection of 1164.50.
We cannot rule the possibility that with all of the market turmoil that wave *iii* will extend and head towards our *iii*=4.236*i* projection of 1217.30.
On the Intraday Chart, from the 1167.50 high, gold appears to be working on a small triangle formation. At the moment the triangle formation looks like:
.a. = 1148.60;
.b. = 1165.00;
.c. = 1152.00;
.d. = 1162.50, if complete;
.e. drop is next, to complete all of the triangle formation.
This triangle looks too small to be all of wave *iv*, however. Once this triangle formation ends, expect gold to thrust higher.
With the drop in the S&P we think a run to the 1217.30 level is the likely end of wave *iii*.
We are long 20 positions, risking to 1072!
CRUDE OIL
It feels like there is no end in sight in the drop in crude, as we reached a low of about 37.75.
We believe that a major low is near and that it could end with a big spike lower, almost like gold, as is shown on the attached Daily Crude Chart.
On the Intraday Chart, we can see a possible ending diagonal triangle, which could be signalling the bottom.
We bought 3 more positions at 1.
We are long 5 positions at 42.35, with 42.00 puts, and 3 at 41!
S&P500
We told you that once our wave -v- diagonal triangle ended that, the drop in the S&P was going to be sharp. It certainly was!
Wave B ended at 2132.82. Although we struggled (a bit) with finding the top, we have now been handsomely rewarded with all of our S&P short positions.
All of the attached Charts tell the story, and in the big picture we expect that the S&P will be heading back to its wave A low of 666.79!
What we know so far is the following:
-i- = 2063.52;
-ii- = 2101.99;
-iii- is now.
Our projections for the end of wave -iii- were:
-iii- = 2.618-i- = 1920.62;
-iii- 4.236-i- = 1808.44;
-iii- = 6.25 -i- = 1668.87
It came in at about 1867. The bottom line:
We shorted 3 positions at 2063.00, 5 at 2050.00, told subscribers to do the same, and booked all 8 at huge profits, in the 2025 area at the end of wave -iii-!
We are looking to short again near our projected top of –iv-, and expect to pull the trigger within days.
USDX
Unfortunately our execution on this market was poor, and we got stopped out.
That happens, and we made 50 times more money on the SP500 trade than we lost on the USDX, so we have no complaints.
Much more importantly, we are currently working on the assumption that wave ii ended at 100.26 and that the USDX is heading to new lows below 70.00.
So far it looks like within wave iii down we have the following:
-i- = 93.27;
-ii- = 98.41;
-iii-:
.i. = 95.95;
.ii. = 97.10
.iii. down is now.
A projection for the end of wave -iii- is:
-iii-= 1.618-i- = 87.10!
NATGAS:
NG is looking like our short term analysis for this market is about to be eliminated. We have been working on the assumption that we were in a wave .b. triangle that was all part of a wave -iv- correction. A break below 2.64, would eliminate our current wave .b. triangle analysis.
Regardless, we are long 5 positions, risking to 2.63!
CRB INDEX
Here is a very interesting long term Ewave analysis of the quarterly bars CRB index chart.
We are expecting dramatic action to begin to the upside. Ray Dalio, head of Bridgewater, the world’s largest hedge fund, believes the Fed will ease by announcing QE4!
That could be the catalyst that launches the CRB index to above 473!
XAU/HUI/GDX
Note the beautiful wedge pattern on this long term XAU chart. The crash in the SP500 did create some impulsive wave behaviour in a lot of gold stocks, and that’s a concern, but only a minor one at this point.
We are long the GDX, ABX, KGC, NEM, CRJ, and TSX:XGD with no stops!!!!!
