Does anyone think we'll hit new lows (4936) later this year?


I think that level is possible. Looking at my monthly chart I believe we are now in a Long term wave 4 which can retrace 38.2% to 61.8%. This is around 5150 and 4640 Level.

So I will be looking to see if we can stay above the 38.2% level or not at this stage.

Below is the chart XAO monthly.

 

Thats a massive overlap of wave 1 there triathlete?
 
Sorry about that i was still asleep you are correct that would invalidate that particular wave count...my mistake disregard my previous chart...!!!!!!! I should take more care next time.

If you continue your trendline from wave c to wave 2 right through you will see the market bounced of this earlier in the week.
If you change your C to a A and your 5 to a B we have a very different picture...
Cheers
 

Hi Gartley.. would you be do kind to give me some insight on how to read your charts and where you are getting your projections from. I have never seen this method? Thank you ☺

I will take another look at the chart....The reason for marking the wave 5 the way I had was the fact it was the top of the market...so to me that would be a five and then we went into a 3 wave abc corrective phase???

Hello PennD. It's cycles based and if you read through some of my earlier posts it's explained there. Yes you will never have seen this method because it's my own work and it's about 10 years in the making

Sorry mate.. it appears i was half asleep also ☺
I'll try that again... abc down from the high is A, replace the 3 with a B and we have just entered C down to new lows??? Time will tell

Yes, a very different picture then.

The banks are making good patterns but same thing...as in wave-4 getting very close to hitting wave-1 high, thus invalidating the case for a longer term 5-wave movement if recent lows penetrated. On a knife edge!!
 

That's why it's so important to have the alternate counts when applying EW. The only other way is to use other means to quantify you prime count validity. Right now using a cycles based approach I can tell with high probability we will finish next month lower on a closing price basis than this month.
 

Alternate counts are a must, I agree...but wave counts still have to be made correctly otherwise they mean nothing.

Time analysis also extremely important. I use Robert Miner's teachings. For example static time counts, trend vibration, time retracements etc. None work well as standalone methods i.m.o but when different techniques align (areas of confluence) a reaction at the projection usually follows.

Thank you... i will have a look through this weekend ☺
 
Looks like a lower high may be forming in the XAO today. Futures not looking so hot, so far anyway.

Tonight will be interesting in the US, the DJIA is threatening to fall below an important support level -16,500.
 
It's interesting to see the Shanghai as the epicentre rather than the Dow.

ASX dropped 40 points on open, 30 points on Shanghai open, and 40 points after RBA.
 
Seasonal chart of US market months. From Hulbert Financial Digest, reproduced in article: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/september-is-the-cruelest-month-for-your-stocks-or-is-it-2015-09-01

The article actually seeks to debunk the idea of Sept as a regularly poor month. Certainly August wasn't the strongish month depicted in the chart.

GDP Growth for Q2 = 0.2%

All it takes is for that to go down -0.3% further for Q3 and Q4 and that's a recession.

Canada and Brazil already in theirs as other big exporters to China.
 
I thought May was usually touted as the worst month. Hence, "In May, stay away".
