happy Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Tony C: "The Largest Correction since 2011" may be coming soon LONG TERM: bull market As we start our 10th year of publishing this blog it appears the market is entering another inflection point. The bulls have won them all since 2010, with the exception of 2011. Is another exception in the offering, or is Primary III set to extend once again? The next several days to weeks will give us the answer. Last weekend we offered a potential alternate count should Primary III extend. Yet, we continue to follow our main count which has worked well for us this year. As you can see from the weekly chart: the SPX should be in Intermediate wave v, of Major 5, of Primary III. When this uptrend concludes, Primary III ends, and the largest correction since 2011 should follow for Primary IV . . . SHORT TERM > more: http://caldaro.wordpress.com/2014/08/30/weekend-update-463/ From today's update: "After the open the market reached the inflection point. It now has three options. (1). most bullish: the pullback underway continues lower, but the 5 waves up from SPX 1905 is only Minor 1 of Int. v. (2). less bullish: today’s pullback is only Minute ii of Minor 5, and the market should continue higher. (3). bearish: today’s high marked the end of the uptrend including Primary III, and Primary IV is underway. With negative divergences on every timeframe it appears it is time to get cautious."

drbubb Posted September 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 I like to use parallel lines. Usually two main parallel, creating a channel, with a middle line. This uptrend is parallel to the one discovered by connecting lows. It doesn't always work, but often it does. Someone bought a few shares at 8.5 cents on the opening Wed., sot it was briefly broken.

drbubb Posted September 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 God of Crude Oil Trading Bets Shale is a Dud Andrew John Hall -- known as the God of Crude Oil Trading to some of his peers -- has built his success on a simple creed: Everyone who disagrees with him is wrong.For most of the past 30 years, that has been a killer strategy. Like a poker player on an endless hot streak, Hall has made billions for the companies for which he’s traded by placing one aggressive bet after another. He was one of the few traders who anticipated both the run-up in and the eventual crash of oil prices in 2008.Hall was so good that he bagged a $98 million payday in 2008, when he ran Citigroup Inc.’s Phibro LLC trading unit, and was up for about $100 million more in 2009.In the end, Bloomberg Markets will report in its October 2014 issue, he couldn’t collect the 2009 payout from Citi because an anti–Wall Street backlash against the bank -- which had just received a $45 billion U.S. government bailout -- led regulators to block it. No such bonuses have awaited Hall of late. He’s racked up losses in two of the past three years.His wager that oil prices would rise and rise has run headlong into an unanticipated energy revolution -- the frenetic push in the U.S. and elsewhere to wring crude out of shale. Shale drilling has boosted U.S. oil output to the highest level in 27 years; it helped the U.S. supply 84 percent of its energy demand last year. Oil prices, far from taking the upward trajectory Hall predicted, have been essentially unchanged since 2011. ==More http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-03/trader-who-scored-100-million-payday-bets-shale-is-dud.html I used to know some folks well who worked for Andy Hall, and he is definitely Legendary. (But that was back in the days when I was a small Legend too, so my memory may be flawed. It is not such a good thing to be legendary, especially in one's own mind. Maybe that is how he got "three years of losses.") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wednesday's update: "Of the three options noted yesterday, two of the three were eliminated at the open. With today’s afternoon pullback to SPX 1998 we are now seeing some choppy activity from the Minor wave 4 low at 1991. We have a rally-pullback SPX 2006-1995, and now another rally-pullback SPX 2009-1998. This morning we labeled the 2006-1995 sequence as Minute waves i and ii of Minor 5. But today’s 2009-1998 sequence appears to be a bit odd, during this uptrend, for a Minute iii. With the much awaited ECB statement tomorrow we remain cautious."

drbubb Posted September 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 TONY C: "We now have five waves up from the recent SPX downtrend low at 1905." For the bears, this could suggest a Primary wave III top. For the bulls, only wave one of a potentially extending uptrend. We currently give both the main count and the alternate count equal probability, while we await further price action in the indices and clarification of the ABS program. Obviously it was an emotional day for traders. Short term support is at SPX 1991 and the 1973 pivot, with resistance at SPX 2011 and the 2019 pivot. Short term momentum dropped from overbought to oversold. The short term OEW charts flip-flopped again today, ending negative, with the reversal at SPX 2003. Best to your Payrolls trading day!

Zee News - 13 hours ago Extending losses for the seventh straight session, gold shed another Rs 20 to close at Rs 27750 per 10 grams in the national capital on ... Survey Participants Split Over Gold Price Direction For Next ... Forbes - 1 day ago === === New Delhi: Extending losses for the seventh straight session, gold shed another Rs 20 to close at Rs 27,750 per 10 grams in the national capital on sustained selling by stockists against easing demand from jewellers and retailers, even as the metal recovered in global markets. However, silver recovered by Rs 75 to Rs 42,075 per kg on increased offtake by industrial units.Traders said sustained stockists selling against falling demand from jewellers and retailers mainly kept pressure on gold prices but a better trend in the global markets capped the losses. . . . Out of 37 participants, 22 responded this week. Of those, eight see higher prices, nine see lower prices and five see prices trading sideways or are neutral. Market participants include bullion dealers, investment banks, futures traders and technical-chart analysts. Last week, survey participants were slightly bearish. As of 11:30 a.m. EDT, Comex December gold was down about $23 for the week. Some who see higher prices said they think the recent strength in the U.S. dollar is due for a retreat. “The … U.S. dollar is overbought technically and the economic news and central bank speculation that has been pushing it higher should fade next week, enabling gold to respond to the big increases coming to the ECB (European Central Bank) balance sheet between the September targeted LTRO (long-term refinancing operation) and ABS (asset-backed securities) purchases starting in October,” said Colin Cieszynski, senior market strategist at CMC Markets.
