SPX may well have completed an ABC corrective up to the 1228 (100% sym level) coinciding with 50% ret of perceived wave 3 move down. If price continues up after a short term reaction my next signif levela would be at 1257/59 cluster being 127% ext and 61.8% ret. I have recently adjusted my fibs to take account that the W.3 down completed 5 waves within as apposed to only 3 waves within. The depth of this ret up tells me that.

jacek, re my gold stance, the move down from high did not look like completed corrective pattern and the ret thus far slightly exceeds 61.8% level. Again, the ret pattern is not helpful. Thus as far as pattern is concerned I too am confused for the time being.

If stocks turn down again with a vengeance I shall expect gold to start "trending" up again. IF stocks moved up to make new highs (Very unlikely) the gold correlation would most likely revert back to positive with stocks. The negative correlation is likely to remain for so long as there is real fear in the mkts but during corrective periods we shall see some intra day sideways action also. Perfectly possible that gold has not finished its move down yet, just wish patterns were clearer.

On this occasion my perspective is very wooly :-)

looks like SPX might go even higher..

"..Short-selling interest in S&P 500 stocks has reached its
highest since November last year as investors piled on bearish bets in
the past month, the FT reports. Until last month, shorting interest had
fallen to its lowest since at least 2008, according to Data Explorers.."
