This is a picture of the chart pattern indicator on the daily scale. The indicator is the line chart below a chart of the S&P 500 composite.
The latest reading of the CPI is bullish as the vertical green bar on the far right of the chart shows. Before that, the indicator was in neutral territory for about two weeks even as the index dropped.
There's not much else to say about this chart other than it's bullish (at least for now. The indicator can change its mind for up to a week).
I drew a tall vertical red line to show were the CPI peaked compared to the index. According to this chart, you had about a week's warning before the index turned down.
Circled is what's called a failure swing. The indicator bottoms and then makes a higher bottom, suggesting a bullish turn coming.
There are a number of them on this chart. The easiest one to spot is in January 2024, right above the label. I circled it in green for your viewing pleasure.
After the index bottomed, the uptrend resumed (in the index).
What does all of this mean? I think the retrace is about over. Look for the index to resume its climb.

I show the Dow transports on the daily scale.
At AB, a potential double bottom appears. Price has to close above the highest peak between the two bottoms (D) before it confirms as a valid chart pattern. Without confirmation, it's just squiggles on the price chart.
In this case, it's not a double bottom because the index drops below B at C.
I drew a line of overhead resistance in green connecting price peaks. Will price pierce this line of resistance? I don't have an answer to that. Elliott wavers may claim that it's wave 5 of an uptrend, so there's a risk of reversal.
We'll have to see how this all plays out.
The following is a brief review of how the markets performed over time. The numbers refer to the close-to-close move in the Dow industrials.

I show a picture of the cryptocurrency Ethereum (ETH-USD) on the daily scale.
At A, we see what looks like a horn bottom (but it looks as if there is more than one price bar between the two spikes) or a narrow double bottom. Regardless of what you call it, the currency made a quick rise to C.
Because B and C are at nearly the same price, you might conclude that this is a chart pattern called a double top. Actually, it's not. The currency has to close below the lowest valley between the two peaks (below A) before it becomes valid.
Also, the drop from D to B makes the pattern look more like a bottom than a top.
So what's next for ETH? My guess, and it's only a guess, is that the currency will drop a bit more before finding support and rising. I drew a horizontal green line where I think the currency might reverse.

This is a picture of the chart pattern indicator on the daily scale. The indicator is the line chart below a chart of the S&P 500 composite.
In this chart, you can't see much of the underlying CPI line. We'll see the line in the next chart.
What we can see is that the CPI has turned neutral. That's clear by the chart showing white bars on the far right of the chart.
Here we see the CPI line (the thin blue line near the bottom of the chart), pegged at 45 (almost midrange from 0 to 100).
I drew vertical red and green lines to match the high to low swings in the CPI. Notice the width of the three red-green pairs. They are about the same, aren't they?
If the trend continues-and there's no reason to suspect that it will and no reason to suspect that it won't-but if the trend continues then we have a few more days of retracing before the index resumes rising.
Also notice that after the red line the index doesn't drop much before the green line appears.

I show the Dow utilities on the daily scale.
Outlined in red is a nicely shaped diamond bottom. The upward breakout from this chart pattern led to a nice gain.
The two green lines highlight resistance to the upward move. Although the index pierced the lines, they closed below the top one. In short, you might see the index start a downward retrace here.
The following is a brief review of how the markets performed over time. The numbers refer to the close-to-close move in the Dow industrials.
No options expire this week.

The following patterns were found manually, not using Patternz. Mr. Bulkowski has excluded any securities he owns from appearing in the list. However, he may add any of the securities listed to his portfolio at any time, just as you can.
In the table below, the red and green colors are based on the historical breakout direction for the associated chart pattern. If a high and tight flag appears, the start and end dates highlight the flagpole only and not the flag.

A chart pattern called a double top appears at AB. It confirms as a valid chart pattern when the index closes below the lowest price between the two peaks. I show that with line C.
The measure rule, which is the height of the pattern (A-C) subtracted from C gives a target that price meets or exceeds 64% of the time in a bull market. Right now, the index is just under halfway to the target.
What does that mean? The measure rule is just a computed target. It's not gravity. It's not magnetism. It's just a number. The index has found support here (the sideways move during the last few hours). That could means tomorrow we'll see a snapback rally. Or it could mean the downward plunge continues. After all, the markets are expected to be weak going into the start of August, according to the updated yearly forecast. And by the way, I found a mistake where I showed the June 2024 forecast update, not July. So you might want to visit the link.

This is a picture of the chart pattern indicator on the daily scale. The indicator is the line chart below a chart of the S&P 500 composite.
Finally, we have a resolution of the question of what happens next? I'm talking about the undecided switching from neutral bars (which are off white on the chart) and the red ones (bearish). They've been flopping back and forth for months now.
About a week ago, one bar turned green (bullish). Because signals can change for up to a week, this one has been in place long enough to remain on the chart.
That means this chart is bullish. It suggests the markets are going higher and today they did. The Dow was up almost 750 points. Nice.
This chart doesn't add much to the picture. It's bullish. It shows market strength spiking and creating a fast rise in the CPI line over the last week or so even though the index climbed at a more leisurely rate.
The CPI is at or near 100, the top of the scale. It means the CPI is going to drop (because it can't go up). When will that occur and will it translate into a meaningful drop in the index? I don't have an answer to those questions. My guess is yes, the market will grow overextended and drop, but I don't think it'll last long.
Short-term, the markets are strong, but we will likely see a retrace after such a strong upward move.

This is a chart of the S&P 500 index on the daily scale.
There's not a lot to say about this chart. The index continues to rise.
I'm not a big fan of Elliott Wave, but I've identified the waves with numbers (but I could be wrong).
Number 1 shows the index making a strong push higher. Number 2 is the retrace. Number 4 might not be a retrace. Rather, it might be a continuation of wave 3. Assigning wave counts is difficult and subject to revision, which is why I dislike Elliott. For a novice like me, it can be downright dangerous.
It seems that two experts can't agree on the wave count sometimes.
We're either waiting for a wave 4 retrace or seeing price climb in wave 5. If it's wave 5, then look for a decline where price drops, retraces the drop, and then drops again (an ABC correction).
The following is a brief review of how the markets performed over time. The numbers refer to the close-to-close move in the Dow industrials.
Many options expire this week, so traders will be looking to close out their positions, and that suggests increased volatility (large daily price swings).
The following is based on an SFO article in December 2004 by John Seekinger, titled, "Take a two-dimensional approach." He offers these tips.
Index | S2 | S1 | Pivot | R1 | R2 |

I show a picture of bitcoin (BTC-USD) on the daily scale.
LS, RS, and head are the shoulders and head of a head-and-shoulders bottom chart pattern. It confirmed as valid and the currency climbed and formed another pattern at AB.
AB is a double top, confirmed when the currency closed below the lowest low between A and B. Line C shows the value it needed to close below.
Highlighted in green (which is hard to see), is what I think of as Elliott waves (5 count, motive wave). It's only made 4 legs, so expect another down leg and perhaps additional down legs if there are extensions. I show a possible leg 5 in blue.

This is a picture of the chart pattern indicator on the daily scale. The indicator is the line chart below a chart of the S&P 500 composite.
The vacillation between neutral (white bars) and bearish (red bars) continues. You can see a hint at the bottom of the chart that the CPI is trending lower. We'll see a better view of that on the next chart.
I still think these bars represent a weakening of the general market.
Here's the chart which shows the CPI line continuing to drop even as the index rises. That's bearish divergence. It suggests but does not guarantee that the index will following the CPI lower.
Keep in mind that bearish divergence can last for months before anything of significance happens.

I changed the title of my 'Training "Miles" ' book to "Foresight". Unfortunately, I forgot to check how many other titles used the same name (there's a lot). Oops. If you'd like to buy a copy, click on the link. And if you read the book, please post a review. The new title wiped out the existing reviews. Sigh.

This is a chart of the Nasdaq composite on the daily scale.
There's not much to say about the chart. The Nasdaq keeps going up. It's following a channel shown by the two near-parallel red lines.
The uptrend will continue until it stops. That may sound dumb but it's true. It's how I set my targets at the top of this page. To put it another way, a trend in motion tends to remain in motion.
However, history says that the indices tend to weaken in the summer months. The 2024 forecast, charts 2 through 4, makes this clear. Expect weakness going into August.
Let's wait and see if it happens.
The following is a brief review of how the markets performed over time. The numbers refer to the close-to-close move in the Dow industrials.
No options expire this week.
The following is based on an SFO article in December 2004 by John Seekinger, titled, "Take a two-dimensional approach." He offers these tips.
Index | S2 | S1 | Pivot | R1 | R2 |
Dow Industrials (^DJI): Daily | 39,090 | 39,233 | 39,312 | 39,455 | 39,534 |
Weekly | 38,884 | 39,130 | 39,284 | 39,530 | 39,684 |
Monthly | 37,741 | 38,558 | 39,065 | 39,882 | 40,389 |
S&P500 (^GSPC): Daily | 5,518 | 5,542 | 5,556 | 5,581 | 5,595 |
Weekly | 5,404 | 5,486 | 5,528 | 5,610 | 5,652 |
Monthly | 5,121 | 5,344 | 5,457 | 5,680 | 5,793 |
Nasdaq (^IXIC): Daily | 18,136 | 18,244 | 18,305 | 18,414 | 18,475 |
Weekly | 17,417 | 17,885 | 18,126 | 18,594 | 18,834 |

This shows the Dow industrials on the daily scale.
On the far left is a chart pattern called a broadening bottom. The index broke out upward from the pattern and made a good rise.
Toward the center right of the chart are two converging red trendlines. They outline another chart pattern called a symmetrical triangle. This chart pattern also had an upward breakout and prices climbed away from the pattern.
The longer diagonal red line is a trendline. I wanted to see where support was and how the valleys touched the line. The January low is not on the trendline, which I found disappointing, so I didn't connect it. I would expect the trendline to support the index should it drop that far sometime in the future.
The chart seems to show a sideways move from February onward. The 2024 forecast shows the Dow dropping going into August, so expect weakness from here. I'll update the forecast on Wednesday's post.
The following is a brief review of how the markets performed over time. The numbers refer to the close-to-close move in the Dow industrials.
No options expire this week.
The following is based on an SFO article in December 2004 by John Seekinger, titled, "Take a two-dimensional approach." He offers these tips.
