George, never sure whether you talkin SPX cash or ES futures ?

the 23.6% ret level of the swing up from 4th June low was hit by SPX on Friday and ES today. These levels also coincided with the potential ABC patterns on daily charts for 100% symmetry, which has held on a retest today. Also confluence with their respective 55 DMA's. Quite a powerful bounce today which might be a heads up for either a completed ABC corrective or perhaps just abc:A with B now in progress.

LOD's were 1425.50 on SPX cash and 1416.50 on ES futures the latter spiking below its 100% sym level to kiss the 23.6% ret and bounce. Also the ES kissed trend support line drawn from the June low. We have multiple confluence of potential support.

Thanks Q, I have several google browser apps open which are high on cpu so one more like cmc can be the straw that breaks the camel's back. My graphics card for 8x22" has a virtual memory cap running still on XP, not enough ram. My trading rig is now almost 5 yrs old, time to renew ! still mulling over tradingcomputers.com.

Cat, what would I do without your humour, luvit :-) The sad thing is it reflects the truth.

Yep Ashraf, I can see my 200dma at 95.60 right in the middle of a significant volume node. Also weekly resistance from 100 and 55 WMA's coinciding same area. Meanwhile the 94 barrier is proving stubborn to break.

Equities have been advancing on pure fumes for months on end from my perspective. Time and again invalidating my tech analysis so I defer to your better judgement. I can certainly see further daily chart downside in the short term. NYSE breadth has been showing a bullish divergence in the last coupla days but I am finding NYSE internals less than useful in the last 9 months or so. HFT has messed much of my traditional analysis.

CL almost hit the 94 resistance level today, my print was 93.66 high which has the 55dma coinciding. Then it closes back at 91.25. Difficult to predict its next move and oil has been uncorrelated, a candle in the wind.

Looking at the SPX cash and futures, the futures has bullish divergence on breadth today and has reached key volume support at the 1424 level coinciding with pattern symmetry at 1422 and the 55 dma. The LOD is currently at 1421.25. A break of this level could see 127.2% at 1410.09 and we have daily trend support at 1416.50 which would become potential resistance. Further downside would target 1394.50.

The SPX cash is still shy of pattern symmetry at 1427.04 with the 127.2% ext at 1415.19. The cash closed at 1432.56 right on its potential support level.

Unfortunately Oil has not been correlated with stocks and CAD, very often playing inverse. Stochastics on both CL and Brent are suggesting north but I don't set much store in indicators. Suffice to say that oil is currently my least favourite instrument to trade :-)

Yes the Cornish have their own language and Kernow means Cornwall. They have an agenda to become independent from England. The Cornish are a small minority overrun by people with second homes here and guys like me retiring to live in Cornwall. They call holiday tourists Emmits which is a disparaging word. They also have their own colloquial English language, if they like you they would call you me beauty. Going back in history a community of miners, fishermen, farmers and pirates. Once rich in minerals exploited by the aristocracy from up country the Cornish had a very tough time and have never forgotten it.

Blimey George, you lost me on oil. How can the 2008 high be a wave 2 when that was an all time high. It has to be a 5 so you might say that was 1 of larger degree, perish the thought. On daily I think we might see 88.85 next. (current 91.16)

Good moaning George, yes $70/brell is opec viable #, I like that idea. You give me this wonderful vision of the old stereotype frenchman sat on his bicycle, fag hanging from mouth, black berry on head, onions dangling. Those were the days, eh? Now what about impending german dominance en france. Shall we see the french resistance once again with Monsieur Rene a la cafe'

Hmmm yes and I guess the high inventory # on Wednesday didn't hep. Mind you we should be pleased at lower oil prices. Looking at the daily move up from the 77.28 June low we might be seeing a 5 sequence up completed with an unusually short 3, extended 5th with the 4:5 that caused us so much grief. If true the ret back has already done 38.2%. 50% at 88.85 and 61.8% at 86.12.

Take a look at the trannies and FDX. I think they look sick with non confirmation on Dow theory. That leads me to looking at weekly crude chart for count to below 77.28, well below. But we must not speculate so far ahead with EW. Lets see what happens next. Your 86 level very pertinent.

One more thing is looking at the fibs from the 24th Feb high to the 28th June low our 78.6% level becomes 70.7% with price hitting on the nail (I missed this, made an error) The 70.7% level plays time and again in crude. That 78.6% level we had was measuring the potential W.3 down when in fact the move down must have been a completed 5 series because this move back up to 100.42 went too high to be a W.4.

How's that for confusion :-)
