Pullbacks Are Still Quite Within Reason – But Know Where Melt-up Takes Hold

I want to try to summarize my larger degree thoughts into this update, which I reviewed in my live video this morning, so everyone can be clear of my perspective at this time.

As long as we hold 3497SPX, then the market has potential to extend within this 5th wave of wave [1].

Is The Market Lulling You To Sleep?

As long as the market remains below immediate resistance, I want you to stay on high alert, because the next break down below yesterday’s low opens a trap door for market price.

The Reports Of My Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated

Despite the Emini S&P 500 (ES) slightly breaking below the .382 retracement support last night, the market has come back roaring today to complete 5-waves up off the low structure last week.

Not Making It Easy

As long as the market now remains below 3330 on the Emini S&P 500 (ES), then I still expect another decline to complete this [c] wave, as shown on my 5-minute ES chart.

Lessons I Learned In My Career

When I was young and first starting out in trading, if the market would come to a point at which I thought it would turn, I was often quite impulsive and impetuous, so I would aggressively short at that point. And, since I was following analysis being provided by others, I would often find myself in the hole with those short trades, as the analysis I was following often turned out to be wrong (there are a lot of bad analysts out there). It took me a while until I learned that most of the analysis I would follow only had a bearish bias, which is why I lost a significant portion of my trading account.

Time To Assess Where We Are In 2020 And What Is Yet To Come For 2021

As we came into 2020, my primary expectation was for the stock market to top out, and provide us with a c-wave decline towards the 2200SPX region. And, when the market exceeded my upside target in the 3000/3100 region, it certainly made me question that potential. If you were following my analysis closely, you would know that week after week during the first 2 months of 2020, I was highlighting the extreme divergence we were seeing between the SPX relative to the IWM and the EEM. And, when the SPX exceeded the 3200SPX region, I even outlined what it would take for me to abandon the bearish expectation being driven by the EEM and IWM charts.

Hitting Targets – And, Then Some

While it has certainly not been an easy ride, we have just arrived at the 3340 target on the S&P 500 (SPX) we have had for the blue wave 3 for weeks now.

Silver Is A Game Changer

Now that silver has broken out, it is rather clear to me that we are in the midst of a 3rd wave.

Quick Silver Update - Market Analysis for Jul 20th, 2020

Should silver continue higher, it likely will spike up and my next IDEAL target is the 22.16 region for the standard Fibonacci Pinball structure.

I May Be A Stubborn SOB

I know everyone is expecting downside in the market because we have gone much further to the upside than anyone expected -- well, other than us (smile).

Is Everyone Enjoying Their Jello?

At the end of the day, my larger degree expectations still remain in place, and that is we will likely see much lower levels in the coming weeks.

Correction Flood Gates Opened Today

Having recently struck within pennies of the ideal target I outlined over the last few weeks in the 3234 SPX region, the market today confirmed our expectations for a larger degree pullback to take shape.

Almost At The Target

If you have been following closely, I have wanted to see the market rally to the 3020-3080SPX region to complete wave [3] in blue on my charts. And, we have struck the bottom of that target today.

Bears Have A Set-Up

The bears have a set-up to break down below today’s low and follow through below 2870ES (2880SPX) support to open the door to the 2700-2750SPX region for the [c] wave of wave [4].

Putting The Market Into Context

When you consider that the last 30% of the rally has the most risk, and that even if the market does complete all 5 waves up into the 3200-3300 SPX region it will still pull back below 2900 in wave ii later this year, you have to really consider whether you, as an investor, wants to take that additional risk.

Market Testing Both Sides

Over the last week, the market did a wonderful job in taking us up to the 2890 region target on the S&P 500, and testing the bears. And, as we have been highlighting, that would be a good place to de-risk a bit, after we caught the bottom in the SPX back in March.

Lesson In Corrective Structures

With the market following through to the downside as we generally expected in this set up, we are approaching an important cross roads which will determine if we have a lower low yet to be seen, which is our primary count, or if the bottom has already been struck.

Completing The b-Wave

Last week the SPX topped 23 cents below our ideal 3338 target, completing wave (3) up, and then hit a low this week within 8 points of our 3225 target for the a wave of (4) down.

Market Stretching For Higher Targets

As long as 3270 ES holds as support, then I can still expect one more push higher towards the 3338 region on the S&P 500. But, once that support breaks, then it is likely that the larger degree pullback has likely begun.

Nice Follow Through On Metals

As the metals were completing their corrections over the last several weeks, silver gave us its usual high probability bottoming indications with the 144-minute MACD bottoming out. And, it was at that time I noted that looking down was not the most profitable of ventures any longer.

With the S&P 500 breaking through 3151 today, it has made its decision of a direct path for a 5th wave. And, as I have been outlining, it looks like this 5th wave is taking shape as an overlapping ending diagonal.

What I love about EW is you know when things go wrong and you know when to get out of a position at minimal damage...it has helped so much in my RR work
""Kenneth_Aydt" - Trading Room" - 2019-10-03

The relief of EWT philosophy on investing has been such a gift (besides being extremely profitable) that I have to say this is the most enjoyable service offered anywhere on the internet and probably the best investment I have ever made. Thanks Avi.
""Talapus" - Trading Room" - 2020-01-27

My 401K money has been protected during this, and I'm making money in little chunks in my trading accounts. And that is all thanks to Avi, HD, Garrett, Zac, and so many great members here. Sincerely, my account and my family say a huge THANK YOU to you all.
""Franchise"" - Trading Room 2020-03-16

After this week's action and watching how Avi & company nailed the piss out of so many moves, you can't argue with me anymore about the efficacy of EW. . . Just amazing to have a methodology that works so well PLUS the guidance from Avi.

I honestly don't know how anyone loses money on this site. You guys have the closest thing to a crystal ball I've ever seen.
""joneil" - Trading Room" - 2020-09-23

I will say this about this site and the crew in general: It is one of the most cohesive, cooperative and harmonious "work" groups I have ever experienced. Everyone's dedication is exemplary, above and beyond the call of duty. The leadership is outstanding. All the trading and money making aside, it is a true pleasure to be here. I haven't even talked about the quality of the analysis. That, I think speaks for itself. OUTSTANDING!
""Nanook" - Trading Room" - 2018-11-08

When it comes to navigating the markets, I feel like I was driving with a blindfold on before finding EWT.
""bryanjf1" - Trading Room" - 2020-08-07

Avi, you are the best strategist that I follow and you have made more prescient calls than anyone on the street. I currently subscribe to your service and am very pleased. I have been a licensed financial advisor for over a decade and worked at a number of Fortune 500 companies in my career, including usbank, Morgan Stanley, Russell investment and now am a director and lincoln financial and i can tell you that none of the so called experts have virtually an ability to determine market direction. With you insight, i have made a killing and am basing my strategies around your advice. Keep up the good work and ignore the naysayers who are missing out on your sage advice!
""Blue Chip Investing"" - Seeking Alpha 2020-04-12

Avi applies the most rigorous application of Elliott wave and Fibonacci analysis that I have seen. Add to that the invention of Fibonacci Pinball, a simple and elegant Fibonacci extension theory that I haven't seen anywhere else. It provides an almost eerie sense of direction once a second wave is identified.
""ChillyD" - Trading Room" - 2020-06-30

Top ticks, bottom ticks. Not sure if EWT has enough power to move the market just yet or bigger money is following these world class analyst. Sure is a pleasure to be in company of such great analysts.
