Charting a Meaningful Pullback in the S&P-500
Elliott Wave Plus – Blog & Video
Here’s my chart of the week. It’s the SPX priced in the RSP. (The market-cap weighted S&P priced in the equal-weight RSP).
As is often the case, a fairly clear Elliott wave count can be applied to the ratio chart. Up from the Jan 2023 low, a clear 5-wave impulse can be labeled. Also, the most reliable Fibonacci target for the end of 5th waves, where wave 5 is equal to the net travelled of waves 1 through 3 times .618 was hit last week.
The chart suggests leadership exhaustion in mega‑cap tech. In Elliott‑wave terms, the setup argues for a retracement back to the wave‑4 extreme, which implies a meaningful pullback in the cap‑weighted S&P.
Notice the textbook pink waves 3 though 5 bearish divergence showing on both the RSI and the MACD.

The video below is an excerpt from EWP’s Weekly “Counts” Webinar (5-17-26). It also includes our Hurst and FSC cycle analysis of the VIX.

TESTIMONIALS:
“Hi Sid. I have several subscriptions on Elliott Wave and some are impressive, but yours is pretty much unbelievable! Thanks a lot for your great work.” – D.B.
“Hi Sid…I’ve been looking for an excuse for a while to pay you a well-deserved compliment. I find your insight on the markets to be SPOT ON and continue to make good money following your expert guidance. Just recently retiring myself, I feel confident that my nest egg is safe and in the position, to grow (exponentially) with your guidance. I’ve tried a lot of trading services in the past, and find you to be an exception to ALL of them in quality of material, integrity and transparency, and feel no reason to ever look elsewhere.” – K.B.
“One of the traders in my group told me she attended and loved your webinar! She has been spending time reviewing my notes and saved screen shots from previous EWP webinars and comparing them to my past trades made during the week following webinar. Her comment to me today: EWP at first glance, appears to be too good to be true. But after reviewing the successful trades you made based on EWP, it becomes even more unbelievable!” – W.H.
