The Stock Market is Entering 2023 at a Critical Juncture 

The Stock Market Is Entering 2023 At A Critical Juncture
Summary
There is a cluster of three large-degree Fibonacci targets that suggest that the Dow Jones Industrial Average has not completed 5-waves up from the 1932, 1974 & 2009 lows yet.
The March 2020 low was an intermediate-degree (black) wave 4 low.  There are two potential ways the market can finish a 5-wave structure up from that low.
Shorter-term, I’ve been tracking three potential wave counts for the S&P-500. The market could eliminate up to two of those counts during the first few weeks of the new year.
Our method of combining Elliott wave and its associated Fibonacci price targets, Hurst cycle analysis, sentiment extremes, momentum, volume signatures and more provide higher confidence trading forecasts than Elliott wave theory when used alone.

What’s Driving the Markets this Year? 

What’s been driving the markets this year? If your market research consists primarily of watching financial television channels, you’d swear that the Fed must be controlling all market movements like it was a puppet master!  The vast majority of TV pundits will answer questions about where the market is going next with at least some mention of the Fed.  Let’s look at all the Fed’s rate changes so far this year to see if they are producing consistent buy or sell signals for investors and traders.

Quarterly Premium Plan Webinar and Sortable Spreadsheet – Aug 4, 2022

We believe our sentiment condition screenshots are so amazingly valuable to traders, we wanted to spend some time showing viewers how to read those charts, and how to utilize them in your trading. These charts show DSI (retail positioning), and multiple measures of commercials (the producers/hedgers) positioning. As we all know, retail traders are notoriously positioned on the wrong side of trade at major turns. Knowing retail vs commercial is crucial when timing your trades.

Trading XLE with Precision using Elliott Wave & Hurst Cycle Analysis

During our August 25, 2019 Weekly “Counts” Webinar, I showed that Hurst cycle analysis was suggesting that a rally was imminent in XLE, the large-cap Oil stock ETF, and the rally was expected to continue through mid-September 2019. XLE bottomed on August 27 and rallied over 14% through September 16.

That rally was well underway when the two Saudi Oil installations were bombed by drones on Saturday, September 14.  So which method of predicting trend changes was more effective?  Technical analysis, or trading the news?  The answer is obvious.
