Thursday's Market 07/17/2014

Today was a decidedly down day for the SPX. From yesterday’s 1983.94 opening high, the SOX completed a 5 wave sequence down to 1965.95. Although this fell exactly within the range I gave yesterday, I had expected 5 waves from 1982.45. This nullified my scenario from yesterday, and with the subsequent breach of the 1964-1966 support area, forced a re-evaluation of my count from the 1952.86 low.


I still have a sequence completing at 1969.84 from that low. Today’s 5 wave sequence from 1983.94 to 1965.95 completed an inverted corrective wave from 1969.84. This formed as 1959.63-1982.52-1965.34-1983.94-1565.95. With the bounce to 1975.99 that followed, the market action from 1952.86 can be counted as the first 3 waves of an inverted corrective wave, 1969.84-1965.95-1975.99. This would suggest the SPX is still in a corrective wave from 1985.59. A break below 1952.86 would confirm this. I would still be looking for this wave to complete above 1937.

Until the SPX moves below 1952.86, I will still keep my count of 1952.86 as the end of a corrective wave, and 1969.84 as Wave 1 of a continuing advance.  Under this scenario the 5 waves from 1969.84 can be seen as Wave A of a semi-inverted corrective wave1975.99 as Wave B, With Waves C, D, and E completing at today’s low of 1955.59. At the moment this scenario seems like the lower probability, but this market has liked surprises.
