Friday's Market 06/14/2013

The SPX opened lower today, falling to 1633.74 before trying to rally. The index rose to 1640.80 fairly quickly, but at that point the rally stalled. The SPX began to fall again, moving down to 1628.63 with barely a bounce. The index then traded in a choppy range, before once again moving lower, dropping to 1623.96. The SPX then rallied to 1631, dipped to 1626, then rallied again to 1632. After that the index slipped to 1625.13, before rising slightly into the close.


After the opening dip, the market rallied to 1640.80. This completed the move from yesterday’s 1608.07 low, moving slightly above yesterday’s high. I had mentioned that it was possible to move slightly higher, and this move still fits within the scenario I outlined yesterday. The drop to 1628.63 then completed a 5 Wave sequence from that high, which was followed by an inverted corrective wave to 1628.56. The move to 1623.96 then completed a higher degree sequence from 1640.80.

From there, it appears that the SPX moved higher in three waves, 1623.96-1630.51-1626.11-1631.55, which seemingly is the start of an inverted corrective wave. The SPX then completed a sequence to the downside, which finished slightly above the 1623.96 low.

It is still most likely that the SPX is in the third wave of a 5 Wave sequence that will complete near 1561. Support is at 1619, and then 1611. A move above 1648.69 would put this count in jeopardy, and a move above 1674.21 would invalidate it.

Thank you.
