Full Moons Well, the influence of the full moon on Wednesday didn’t do very much to affect the markets. But, it was certainly apparent in the free blog: Animal spirits were out of control and on full display. I’ve attempted over the past several years here to promote the idea that the manner in which… Read more

Not Much Left to Say I’m expecting an imminent downturn in the US indices, and just about everywhere else. The small fourth wave from the week before last took 5 days to the downside. I predicted that the fifth wave up would take a similar amount of time, projecting a top either this past Friday… Read more
Ralph Nelson Elliott’s Work Ralph Elliott’s ground-breaking book, Nature’s Law — The Secret of the Universe, was published on June 10, 1946. He died less than two years later, on January 15, 1948. He has been in ill health for over twenty years, an affliction that struck a couple of years before the 1929 stock… Read more
We Wait … Last week, I noted that “the ducks were all lined up” for a turn to the downside. These “ducks” are all the assets I cover on a daily basis. But stubbornly, my ducks have not budged. They have been moving sideways this week in what might be a final contracting triangle. We… Read more
Trigger Time Yes, it’s more than time to be looking down from here. We’re at extremes in all the usual indicators that I look at. In fact, some of them are so extreme, it’s amazing that this market has been “levitating” as long as it has. But it has one unusual factor that’s the cause… Read more
Greed is at Extreme Levels Being a steadfast contrarian if absolutely critical if you’re involved in any capacity in the stock market. The market swings from fear to greed and if you have a good handle on where we are in the pendulum swing (cycles again!), and commit to staying on the opposite side of… Read more

They are counter-productive to my work. I cannot do my work without remaining absolutely objective in my approach… Read more
The Eve of Destruction — 1965 Barry McGuire sang “The Eve of Destruction” from hand written notes (in a single “take”) in a recording studio rehearsal in 1965. It was not supposed to be the final soundtrack for that song. It was written by P.F. Sloan, who wrote hit songs for Johnny Rivers (“Secret Agent… Read more
Down — Almost Right Across the Board All the assets for which I do video report on a daily basis are setting up for a turn early in the week. It’s been a long haul and once again, it underlines the difference between trading success and losing consistently: Sitting on your hands. Or, if that’s… Read more
Monday is a US Market Holiday The US market is closed on Monday for the Martin Luther King holiday. It will reopen Tuesday morning. Countertrend (corrective waves) The current corrective wave is a countertrend wave within a countertrend fourth wave — a most dangerous undertaking to trade it. Let’s take a moment to think about… Read more
