Feb 10, 2014 weekly outlook

Well, I was right about a couple of up days.  I was doing OK on   the down bias until Friday.  My target of 1745 wasn't off by much  and market did not spend a lot of time below that level.  Not a perfect call of the market, but not a bad call either.

Appears a short cycle (12 days) provided the bounce off the bottom.  That cycle should have spent its upside energy by Wednesday.  Then we will have the Kitchin, 1/3 Kitchin cycle, Wall cycle, and 1/4 wall cycle will be down. by mid week the 1/8 Wall (12 day) cycle will be down.

So we may get some upside (baiting the bulls?) and then some vigorous down the last couple of days of the week.  I expect the week to be down (and it could be substantial).  Eventually I think we test the 1695-1700 area based on some longer term DPOs (but not just yet)

  1. re: 'but not a bad call either.'

    Are you kidding? You were a mere 8pts above the floor, that is negligible noise. It was a great call.

    considering the turn in the weekly charts this Thur/Friday, I've ditched the original target zone of 1710/1690.

    Bears surely had their best chance this week..with BAD jobs data, and they still couldn't manage to hit the 200 day MA of sp'1710.

    We're ramped 60pts in just over 2 trading days. So long as Yellen doesn't say anything stupid next week, the market will surely keep climbing?

    Have a good weekend

  4. Looks like another leg up for the Bull as it broke S&P 1810 resistance.

  7. Paul, since you seem to KNOW what the market will do "share it". Or, maybe you don't and get off trying o ridicule others because you don't have a clue.

  8. dear Inlet,
    we are on out way to 1965-1985.
    there might be pullback on the way, but the trend is up! (until mid july 2014 we will see values above 1960's) !
    :)

  9. Paul - Really? I seem to recall DJIA 1000+ and back under 600 a couple of times in the 70s. So what are you saying? Another 15 years (1965-80) where we go nowhere, just wait for big pullbacks and buy then sell 100% gains? Over that 20 years there was something for everybody (bulls and bears) so not sure how 1965-1985 offers much guidance.

  10. 1965 - 1985 points in spx 500 until July 2014.
    sorry for not mentioning it.

  11. Still unclear as to what you are trying to say. Points up or down? And how does a 4-5 month prediction aid the swing trader who is trading ever few weeks (usually a few days up to 1-2 months). I only offer comment on longer term because I was requested to offer this context (not for swing trading).
