Stock Market Rogue Rally Nearing Completion

Stock Markets 2014Feb 24, 2014 – 10:41 PM GMT

Would you believe that the really took 85 hours and 40 minutes from inception to today’s high at 12:20? The Wave (B) analysis still stands, since the Dow, The Russell 2000 and the Trannies have not made new highs, giving a major non-confirmation of this rally. There is negative divergence at all degrees of trend.

This is where analogs tend to fall apart in most analysts’ eyes, since they look for a mechanical reproduction of the prior event that is being compared to the present. In Cycles, you look for the components, not the actual structure to guide you. In this case, I view the January 15 high as the Orthodox high. Today’s Wave (B) was a rogue attempt to take out any shorts.

Remember that virtually all the indexes are in the final stages of an Orthodox Broadening Top, which I have found temporarily turns the expected Cycle tops and bottoms upside-down. Today would normally have been a Trading Cycle low. Instead, it inverted to become a top (and maybe the final one). This still leaves time for a Flash Crash, which has followed every completed Broadening Top since May 6, 2010.

There is no trigger point to go short the SPX until it crosses the trendline at 1832.00. Take your best shot at it if not already short.

I had earlier suggested that any ramp attempt in the SPX would probably push the VIX down to 13.77 again. Well, not quite!

The VIX sell signal is between the 50-day moving average at 14.64 and Intermediate-term resistance at 14.85.

It appears that GLD may be finished with its retracement and ready to go back into its bear market decline. It appears to have completed a broadening Ending Diagonal and today is a pivot day for gold, so it bears close watching, if one is long.

Regards,

Tony
