Subscribers to TMTF were made aware of these convergences and were advised to watch 1089-1102 ranges for a major tradable low.<br \/>\nGoing back to the March 2009 lows, The SP 500 rallied up in 5 waves from 666 to the 1370 Bin Laden highs.\u00a0 At that level we had re-traced 78.6% of the entire 2007 highs to 2009 lows, a common turning point.\u00a0 Since then, we have had a 3 wave decline, also common for correcting a 5 wave move to the upside.\u00a0 The decline halted at 1101, an exact 38% fibonacci retracement of the 666 lows to 1370 highs.\u00a0 This is what I call a \u201cfibonacci intersection\u201d. The same thing happened in July 2010 at 1010 on the SP 500, where a huge bottom formed amidst two Fibonacci intersections.\u00a0 These are crowd behavioral patterns, and we identify them at TMTF for our subscribers.<br \/>\nThe rally since 1101 last week to 1204 pivot highs was a 5 wave rally, this is an early bullish sign that most people don\u2019t see. A correction of this 103 point 5 wave rally to 1204 would be normal, but the lighter the correction the more Bullish.\u00a0 So far the correction is only 23% of the 104 point rally with a gap fill at 1180.<br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Let\u2019s review the bull signals:<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n13 Fibonacci month\u2019s from the July 2010 bottom to August 2011 bottoms<br \/>\n7 Times in history we had the SP 500 double in a short period of time, and in every case it retraced 27-40% of the price movement from lows to highs. We just retraced 40% of our SP 500 double, historically very high retracement.<br \/>\nAt 1101 we had 38% Fibonacci ABC correction of the Bull leg from 666 to 1370<br \/>\nAt 1101 the SP 500 was yielding more than 10 year treasuries<br \/>\nIn 1974-77 we had the SAME pattern, which I outlined for everyone last week.<br \/>\nInsiders with massive buying, the most since March 2009 lows, corporate buybacks announced.<br \/>\nVIX at extreme levels<br \/>\nFear gauges were at extreme levels. Sentiment was over 50% bears with normal readings at 39%.<br \/>\n5 wave impulsive rally from 1101 to 1204 ensued\u2026 now a pullback is due. Same thing happened last summer 1010 to 1130, pullback to1040 in 3 waves, then another 5 waves up.<br \/>\nWhat am I telling everyone?<br \/>\nStop yelling fire in an empty theater\u2026.<br \/>\nThis is options expiration week, trading this week is notoriously difficult\u2026<br \/>\nThe Bear case is crowded, the Bull case is not.<br \/>\nI\u2019m leaning bullish as long as I keep seeing this type of confirming price action.<br \/>\nI\u2019m watching 1165 on SP 500 as a pivot low worst case, but as long as we see price action above that I like the set up for a while yet on the long side.<br \/>\n(But Dave, the textbook for Elliott Waves doesn\u2019t agree with you\u2026 good, that\u2019s why I use other indicators)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.silver-investor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/ATP11.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-950\" title=\"ATP1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.silver-investor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/ATP11.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"611\" height=\"422\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Consider subscribing so that you will be consistently informed, have 24\/7 Email access to me with questions, and also get Gold and Silver forecasts on a regular basis.
