Stock Market Back to the Triangle

Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2015 Sep 09, 2015 - 02:20 PM GMT

Good Morning!

If we are to believe the Premarket, SPX is now approaching mid-Cycle resistance at 1995.04. Of course, this is all in very light volume in the futures, but the only wave that has this capability and position is a (rogue) Wave E.

This has caused me to re-assess the Wave structure yet again. Wave D has 11 waves, which is corrective.


Wave E has 9 hourly bars, but the first is only a partial. This suggests a pop at the open, but the futures are already retreating, so it may not last through 10:00 am.

This is a part of the global “risk on” euphoria that still lingers. However, investors that have pulled out of the market aren’t coming back and few enough have gone short that the bounce may wither at the light of day. The buyers just aren’t there anymore.

Another reason for this label is that typically we see an index challenging its Cycle Bottom from beneath in a Wave (2) position, with Wave (3) beginning at the end of the challenge. The lack of impulsiveness in Wave (A) and the Triangle (B) denotes a similar position. That is, the beginning of a very large Wave (C).

It also confirms that August 24 was very likely a Master Cycle low at 251 days. The next Master Cycle low is due within the first two weeks of October. Usually the guideline for separation between Master Cycles is at least 43 days.

A similar Wave structure seems to be visible in the VIX, but without the Triangle formation. The next move up appears to be a 5-wave (C).

VIX futures are down. It is hard to say whether they have exceeded the low at 23.45.

The Hi-Lo Index wave structure now makes more sense. I had commented earlier that I had not seen the Hi-Lo retrace as much as it has in this circumstance. A Wave (B) goes a long way in explaining the anomaly.

Treasury Notes and Bonds are being sold heavily. The rise in stocks doesn’t appear to explain the strength of the move in TNX. China may be selling Treasuries again through its Belgian hedge fund. Friday appears to be a strong Pivot day.

The strong decline in Treasuries may also exacerbate liquidity issues for stocks as well.

ZeroHedge reports, “30Y Treasury yields are up 40bps from the Black Monday flash-crash panic low yields, breaking back above 3.00% for the first time since the end of July. It appears China selling (and rate locks) is trumping Element Capital's buying (for now).”

This is also sending a strong signal that a rate hike is imminent.

Regards,

Tony
