Russell 2000 leading U.S. decline

by m.tamosauskas| April 9, 2014 | No Comments

The Russell 2000 index which is compiled of small capitalisation companies tends to lead the broader U.S. stock market – directionally upwards and downwards. Small companies are more sensitive to economic conditions and assume more risk than larger, more-established companies that make up the S&P 500. The relationship between the S&P 500 and the Russell 2000 has provided reliable guidance in the past in identifying early changes in market direction. This phenomenon is expected to remain constant in the future.

Last year, in 2013, the Russell 2000 was leading to the upside on two separate occasions by breaking first into new record highs whilst the S&P 500 was trading well below its previous highs. Ultimately, the S&P 500 caught up later and broke into new record highs proving that once again, the Russell 2000 was the leading index.

But so far, in early 2014, a different story is developing – the Russell now appears to be leading to the downside. Last week, whilst the Russell 2000 was trading well below its early March’14 high of 1212.82, the S&P index recorded yet another record high forming a bearish divergence. The Russell’s decline is forming lower highs and lower lows confirming a downtrend in progress as the S&P stages a reversal signature demonstrating it preparedness in following its index counter-part lower.

In our latest EW-Compass reports, both the S&P 500 and the Russell 2000 were forewarned as completing advances that began from the June ’12 lows. The negative divergence between these two indices and a subsequent reversal signature for the S&P last Friday has since confirmed a multi-month decline is underway.

We’re really excited about this next decline because it will be the largest we’ve seen for almost two years – but this is still labelled as a counter-trend pattern. For the last several years, our ‘inflation-pop’ scenario has forecast upside price levels into new record highs – whilst this has been realised, the measured targets remain untested. Once the current counter-trend decline has reached downside targets, the larger advance is set to resume.

A little bit of practice

by m.tamosauskas| April 4, 2014 | No Comments

Dear Elliott Wave Enthusiasts!

I’d like to tell you that we’ve just published a BONUS REPORT on Precious Metals into the Elliott Wave Compass report. But first, I’d like to ask you a question. How good are your eyes at recognising and identifying Elliott Wave patterns?

R.N.Elliott documented 13 specific price-patterns that form his Theory – they are composed into two groups, ‘impulse’ (action/growth/expansion/progress etc. ) and ‘corrective’ (reaction/decay/contraction/regress etc.) – they are,

IMPULSE:

Five wave ‘expanding-impulse’

Five wave ‘contracting diagonal-impulse’

Five wave ‘expanding diagonal-impulse’

CORRECTIVE:

Zig Zag – single

Zig Zag – double

Zig Zag – triple

Flat – horizontal

Flat – expanding

Flat – running

Triangle – contracting

Triangle – ascending

Triangle – descending

Triangle – expanding

You can check these out here:

https://www.wavetrack.com//tutorials/the-wave-principle.html#Thirteen-Patterns

TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE

But when it comes to applying the Elliott Wave Principle in real-time, can you transform the chaotic ‘noise’ into one of those patterns he described? We have a good example to test you.

You’ve perhaps noticed that Gold has changed direction again since forming a high in Mid-March. Take a look at this chart in fig #1 below – this is the GDX Gold Miners ETF – what pattern do you see?

01_GDX_140404

Don’t scroll immediately lower, or you’ll see the result, test your knowledge first by selecting one of the above patterns in R.N.Elliott’s list (do you remember what they look like? – if not, refer to the website graphics in the link above). Once you have your answer, scroll down to see the result!

THE ANSWER IS BELOW

The answer is a RUNNING FLAT – see fig #2 below. The running flat is a ‘corrective’ pattern, unfolding in the opposite direction to the prevailing trend – in this case downwards. It is composed of three main price-swings and we have labelled this in intermediate degree, (A)-(B)-(C). Notice its subdivides 3-3-5, so that wave (A) unfolds into a three wave zig zag, wave (B) as another zig zag and finally wave (C) as a five wave ‘expanding-impulse’ pattern.

02_GDX_140404a

The RUNNING FLAT is distinguished from an expanding flat because wave (C) does not exceed the termination (high) of wave (A) – this means it effectively ‘truncates’ and is a sign of a weakening condition – buyers into the high are not strong enough to push prices above the more common price target level above wave (A).

Did you recognise it?

From an Elliott Wave perspective, this is a picture-perfect example of the archetypal running flat pattern, not only from the structural aspect, but also from the geometric Fibonacci-ratio aspect.

SPECIAL BONUS REPORT – Precious Metals

We have just updated this pattern into our current forecasts for precious metals and have now published the results into a special BONUS REPORT that is added to the EW-Compass subscription. The report shows how the running flat pattern fits into the larger/aggregate pattern developing from the 2011 highs for the GDX but also for the XAU Gold/Silver index, and of course for GOLD & SILVER bullion.

This report is invaluable because it describes the finalisation of declines within the up-coming ‘INFLATION-POP’ scenario. We have posted a lot of analysis on this subject on our website at wavetrack.com – just type in INFLATION POP into the text search function and take a look for yourself. I can’t stress how important it is to track the precious metals at the moment.

The latest PRECIOUS METALS BONUS report is refers to previous reports  – you can compare these forecasts and see how well they have performed – just go the ‘SPECIALS TAB’ in the EW-COMPASS software to download them FREE, as part of your subscription.

And one last thing – WaveTrack International’s 2014 price-forecasts can also be viewed in two hour-long videos, PART I and PART II. These Elliott Wave forecasts remain valid, and are vitally important especially when we follow the path that precious metals are unfolding into during the next several years.

So don’t delay – take a look at the latest short-term price forecasts, but also how the medium and long-term forecasts are corroborating something spectacular is developing. And don’t forget to send us your feedback! Just use the Help-Desk located in the main-page of wavetrack.com.

All the very best to you!

geometric beauty and harmony (AMAZON)

by m.tamosauskas| March 28, 2014 | No Comments

R. N. Elliott’s monograph entitled ‘Nature’s Law’ published in 1946 dedicated an entire chapter to the geometric ratio and proportion qualities of the Elliott Wave Principle. This was the result of his earlier introduction to the Fibonacci Summation Series by Charles J. Collins.  Its application was ‘work in progress’ but unfortunately, R. N. Elliott passed away two years later. Despite this however, he left a legacy for us to continue its development and discovery. The use of modern-day computers has accelerated our understanding and our realisation of its frequency within developing EW patterns. This adherence of fib-price-ratios has increased pattern identification whilst helping to minimise the inherent ‘subjectivity’ of human pre-conception that so often results in erroneous wave counting.

We’d like to introduce you to an excellent example of fib-price-ratio adherence within an action-reaction process, an impulse wave followed by a progressive corrective wave.  The equity Amazon.com Inc. has recently completed a text-book five wave expanding-impulse pattern into the Jan.’14 high whilst unfolding into archetypal fib-price-ratio measurements.

The complete analysis is added to this month’s Bonus Chart in the latest edition of the EW-Compass report – so don’t miss this chance to explore the geometric beauty and harmony embedded within the price development of Elliott Wave Principle.01_140328_Amazon

S&P 500 major resistance level

by m.tamosauskas| March 14, 2014 | No Comments

sp140314

The advance that began from the early Feb.’14 low of 1737.92 unfolded into a five wave expanding-impulse pattern, labelled in minuette degree, with a completion into the recent high of 1883.57. Extending the next advance between waves [i] and [iii] by a fib. 61.8% ratio it depicts the exact high of wave [v] at 1883.57. Precisely to the point! Moreover, there is another hidden golden ratio – extending minor wave i. (1266.74-1475.51) by a fib. 161.8% ratio, upside targets was measured towards 1885.26, less than 2 points to the exact high. Now, it becomes a double convergence and an additional proves S&P 500 has reached a strong resistance level. The following decline began a balancing process of the preceding advance.

Russia RTS

by m.tamosauskas| March 3, 2014 | No Comments

By no means we were projecting this downside target basen on current fundamental news, but the forecast published November ’13 remains in progress. The good news about that – the worst part for the Russia RTS index (wave 3rd of 3rd) hasn’t produced anything catastophic, so let’s hope only a downside momentum has left.

sp140224

Cycle wave C is in upside progress beginning from the Oct.’11 low of 1074.77. It is taking the form of a five wave expanding-impulse pattern with several degrees of subdivision in its expanding 3rd wave as primary wave 3 that began from the secondary low of 1158.67. Intermediate wave (3) is shown with immediate upside potential to 1900.00+/- prior to a sustained sell-off as wave (4) to the fib. 38.2% retracement at 1629.66+/-.

Silver

A lot of excitement today in the precious metal market since gold and silver are breaking above their 200-day moving average.  However, our view remains the same – the larger declines are still in progress with lower lows yet to come. The advances that began in June ’13 depict gold is unfolding into a counter-trend horizontal flat pattern, whilst silver is unfolding into a contracting triangle. This short-term silver chart shows minor wave c. is in progress with two additional price-swings (minor waves d. and e.) required to complete the sequence.
