AAPL – June 27, 2023
Posted on June 27, 2023 5 Comments
Been holding onto these AAPL charts for a while until they approached the level. This certainly looks like a freight train for higher BUT you know, nothing like the top of a circle to pause / stop it in its tracks.
I will not be shorting AAPL at this level but will find it interesting to see if this stops this freight train. If/when it blows thru the top of the circle, the 1.27 extensions looms …
Some fun waves this AM … that’s really all that is important. 🙂
Crude Harmony – June 20, 2023
Posted on June 20, 2023 6 Comments
Finished – somewhat – moving into the new rental out here in San Diego. (I REFUSE TO BUY OUT HERE) … little bit brain dead but “something” told me to take a look at crude oil futures and that bizarre low of -40 bucks. Could that low be harmonic?
Of course not .. well, shoot, it was:
So .. what the heck are we looking at:
- Crude Oil Monthly – LOG (key, these are percentage moves) since 1984. Couldn’t get anymore data that that.
- The 1.3348 is a ratio (Perfect 4th) for the equal octave scale of music.
- 1.3348AB = CD and the extension from the “old” all time low was, yes, 1.3348.
- A good technique to use is to look at the last MAJOR retracement and see what that number was … in this case .749. TILT … well take 1/1.3348 and we get .749. The market did, in fact, give us a clue. Pretty wild …
- The dashed blue move down? .786 the blue measured move …
- The move up to the old all time high? 1.1892 which is the ratio for the “minor 3rd”
- Last, and this was the “kicker” for me … using the open/close after the negative spike low … the high at 130 was exactly equal to that measured move. Nice …
Anyway, just bored so thought I would cruise the charts.
I’m looking to get long Crude OBTW …

As we have discussed on this blog – I don’t track nor do I know ANYTHING about the fundamentals driving the EV market. I probably should as I have my hands in a “data norming” technology that is using Unreal Engine 5 to create the “EV Metaverse” but, other than I really don’t.
That being said – the thesis – TSLA IS GOING TO NEW HIGHS remains intact.
What will stop it .. MAJOR RESISTANCE 257-268.
Other than that .. IF (the big IF) TSLA respects that level and pulls back THEN we need to think of adding and getting long.
the Shanghai Dominoes
Posted on June 5, 2023 1 Comment
I continue to pick up The 32nd Jewel by Connie Brown. I dust it off and continue down the rabbit hole. What has been happening of late is I’ll get about 10 pages (no kidding) into a section and then something pops up in the writing and … down the rabbit hole I go, again. Most recently it has been helping, a lot, to follow Mr. Robert Edward Grant. He might not know it – OK, high probability he doesn’t – but his information has (amazingly ;)) been perfect for when I get “stuck” in The 32nd Jewel.
Today, I was going BACK to the subject of “Lattice Diagrams” and came across the “leading and lagging” market chapter. It’s a wonderful chapter to dust off the basics and look at something that you haven’t researched or analyzed in a while.
What drew my attention was the discussion about China and the Shanghai Composite. In a nutshell, China is a “leader” w/in the global financial trends. It’s not hard to imagine that Australia, India and South Africa all depend on China.
Additionally, if you have been following this blog for a while, you can see/understand the Canadian and Australia correlation. Then, it’s known (not going to say widely) that the TSX (Canada) leads the S&P.
So what is China doing?
Well, on page 36 of The 32nd Jewel she gives a count that shows the Shanghai in a bearish “C” wave which portends to lower Shanghai which means the dominoes fall to the bears …folks, trust me here, you want Ms. Brown counting waves … she is, without a doubt one of the best in the world. So, took her count and I’ve added the 2. I’m staying away from a large multi year triangle thesis, for now. However, if we do break ABOVE 3750 BEFORE breaking below the trendline and the .786 it’s game on for the bulls.
For now, this is the count that appears to be the highest probability.
KEEP AN EYE ON THE SHANGHAI .. then, of course, the All Ordinaries (Australia), the Canadian TSX, the German DAX and the S&P500.
AVGO – May 30, 2023
Posted on May 30, 2023 Leave a Comment
Folks, thanks to @stocktwits and @howardlinzdon I wouldn’t have known about AVGO. OUCH …so, seeing in Howard’s feed I decided to just go take a look.
Amazing … take a look at this mathematical symmetry. Pretty amazing, isn’t it?
Yes, I know, it’s after the fact and I admit to that.
The cool thing is 1/ it’s still there (the math 🙂 ) but 2/ even cooler is my eye immediately saw it.
I tell you folks, the more you take off the charts, the more you will see.
Anyhoo, sure looks like a 1-2-3-4-5 and w/ that symmetry and math, along with today’s action certainly appears that is all she wrote!
NVDA update – May 30, 2023
Posted on May 30, 2023 1 Comment
Took a peek at NVDA tonight and what came to my eye was the “look” of the “last” big move into a high from a measured move perspective and, yup, there it was – almost exactly equal to the length of the last move.
Honestly, I saw that but was “head faked” by the gigantic candle that brought us here so I used the all time low for the ABCD projection that is a little higher. But, tonight, it was the “shooting star” like nature of the candle that caught my eye. So, there it was and I, sorry folks, but I blew it. I did have the 1.27 extension on the chart and that “can” or “should” provide some resistance but, like anything, the level takes on more significance when you have a projection into that extension level. So, take that for what it’s worth.
Now, my “feel” is that we hit some resistance and perhaps a pullback and then up into the larger ABCD. That scenario, for now, would workout if that old trend line that got blown thru holds as support and NVDA bounces and goes up up up … this thesis is thawing and getting really cold if we get a weekly close below that old trend line.
So … lets see what happens.
NVDA – May 29, 2023
Posted on May 29, 2023 Leave a Comment
NVDA – WOWZA.
I have a long term monthly count in my head that has a pullback/pause coming and then continuing higher. Yes, I think this is going higher. However, need it to get thru two things first:
Trend Line: note the long term log trend line from the first high 20 years ago the last major high (both regions denoted by the blue arrows) caused a pullback to occur … this trend line “should” at least offer some resistance. We blow thru it and this thing is in Zone 5 afterburner.
Right near the projected trend line resistance is the ABCD from the low down at .37 cents. The 1.27 extension “should” provide “some” resistance. The target for now: 444-454.
NO I’m not advocating a short here unless you have HUGE “fill in the blank” – I’m seeking an area of resistance that will enable a pause/pullback so I can manage risk and not try to get into a run away market something I have proven – again and again – to not be good at and, in fact, where a majority of my losses have come from. Trust me, I’ve had my fair share – BIG TIME. Maybe you have, will or won’t (it can be the “won’t” …usually isn’t but why not?) suffer losses but for me – I lose money trying to chase. PERIOD. So, I’ll see a level to try and get in IF a pullback ever occurs. For now … watch that 444-454 area.
Also, I expected the volume to be much higher or even spiking but, with this much thrust, this high, the volume is normal to a tad bit latent. Hmmmm …coupled w/ the RSI isn’t overbought or showing any divergences. I think this thing has some legs but, again, I’m watching this rocket ship from my TV or staring up in the sky.
For those who have an e-ticket on this one .. hope these targets / resistance areas will help you manage risk.
Speaking of losses … we had a saying when I used to fly w/ my trusty (loved everyone of them OBTW) pilots … when it comes to gear down landings, there are those who WILL and those who HAVE. NEVER those who WON’T.
It’s OK to lose money …it sucks, I know, but it’s part of the game.

JPM redux – May 24, 2023
Posted on May 24, 2023 2 Comments
Last post on JPM: https://atomic-temporary-44460632.wpcomstaging.com/2023/05/21/jpm-may-21-2023/
Well, folks, the SELL PATTERN on JPM has worked so far and…that’s not good folks. I REALLY DO NOT care what your political affiliation is …in my simple mind you are a HUMAN and I AM connected to YOU.
So … this is a hard post. We are on the verge of a really important moment … and, frankly, I’m just going to say it on this blog:
KEEPING THE POLITICS OUT OF IT:
If JPM BUY PATTERN works – up up an way. The “metaverse” of the “real” world just continues to weave into Idiocracy.
IF JPM BUY PATTERN FAILS – it’s time folks. Stock up on REAL TANGIBLE ITEMS and be a good HUMAN …
It is that simple …
USO – May 21, 2023
Posted on May 21, 2023 1 Comment
Take a look at USO below … certainly looks like 5 waves down and , every wave was symmetrical and the EXACT same percentage move. Pretty crazy .. that’s why I love LOG charts folks.
W/ the 5 waves down complete and the pretty big move afterward would look to be a BUYer w/ a nice pullback lower on USO. Could be a nice long run higher on this one …
