EURGBP set up and the form, proportion and harmony behind it
Posted on August 13, 2016 Leave a Comment
want to take a little time this AM to describe the set up coming in on the EURGBP:
- from the all time high, we are coming up into the .618 retracement along w/ the AB=CD projection
there is a lot of thrust coming into this level – but if we break it down into a lower time frame compression we have a very balanced move in form, proportion and balance:
- fundamental frequency: think of a rock hitting the water. how high, how heavy and how high all take into account the depth of the rocks penetration into the water and the corresponding waves which will be produced. to calculate the fundamental frequency targets we use the initial impulse high and low and we get targets (shown by dashed red and purple lines) of .80378 and .86847.
- Note the purple dashed line target when it was hit at 3. Caused big resistance.
- Also, if we PROJECT the initial move labeled 1 and multiply it’s length by PI (3.142) we get right into .87386.
- I am showing a 1,2,3,4,5 (big numbers) and also showing minor 1,2,3,4,5 in the 5th leg.
- also, note the symmetry of the moves shown by big wave 3=5 and minor 1=5.
- Last, a 1.27 extension of the last swing into the .618 retracement.
also, believe this is a countertrend move .. either a wave B or 2 correction coming.
THESIS: short EUR vs GBP in/around 8707-8746. risk 50 pips …normal corrections have been roughly 400-500 pips. Thus a RR of 8:1 or 10:1.
worth it?
It’s just a PATTERN and nothing else but it’s something to pay attention to

PATTERNS … work and they fail.
PATTERNS tell us of possible inflection points.
PATTERNS also tell us very important areas of interest to trade around ..
What if .. what if the PATTERN on the cash S&P has finished or is very close to finishing a sell signal?
That would mean we are at major resistance and the market “should” respect a PATTERN that has its genesis from it’s all time low 50 years ago….
IF the market DOES NOT respect this area and goes higher then we are really really really strong and I wold look to go LONG after a monthly or weekly close above these levels.
so, don’t shoot me- I got tons of crap this weekend for posting about the Utilities Pattern hitting (seems to be working so far) and I’m just mentioning that a “classic” AB=CD PATTERN is pretty much done on the S&P.
Pay Attention ….

PS – tons of cycles are hitting this week so just go w/ the flow and catch the wave that should begin soon. No idea which way it goes, it’s just a pattern. TRADE IT or NOT.
PS — also, the you’ll note the SK&P was BORN on March 4, 1957 or 21708 days ago. 21708/10 = 2170.8. Were only 10 points away from that price … if we close below 2171,2172,2173 etc. in the coming days the market has SQUARED OUT PRICE and TIME. “Stuff” usually happens around those occurrences. An FYI …
I STILL think this is a big deal … Utilities… an update

August 7, 2016 – are the Utilities cracking? Historically, they have NEVER gone farther than the measured moves shown from the post 6/6/2016. Stay tuned. the point we are trying to make here is that when these blue measured moves are present AND a perfect 1.618 extension is present THEN the Utes have correct either 46 or 60 percent. here’s the question – are you ready for THAT? watch the close on Friday for more weakness coming confirmation.

6/06/2016 – were rolling right up into the target zone w/ monthly bearish divergence. yes, I still think this is a big deal and begs of caution … in 26,854 days Utilities have never gone farther w/out a major correction. Questions?
going to show this chart again of the Utilities … watch closely, the upper target is pretty darn close. Since the low in the 1940’s the Utilities have never gone farther than this (or close to this – still some upper targets) w/out a major pullback.
Great British Pound – the BUY case

since the HUGE MONTHLY 31 year .78 node the pound move roughly 700 pips (note in 5 waves) and has been consolidating for a month.
take a look at the BUY PATTERN present in the GBP a little lower … they don’t get better than this. What does that mean?
well after a 31 year .786 node of support we have a Gartley BUY occurring. all it means is it MIGHT work and it MIGHT not ..
I like the fact that it’s been working/consolidating for a bout a month .. that means the moon is at play! 🙂
wow .. what an amazing vacation in the Outer Banks this past week. W/ a clear head, I open my charts this AM ..
so, the Pound found support on a 31 year .786 retracement…it “should”. But, as we know, it doesn’t have to hold – at all. But so far it has …
now, if you’ve been following my blog you’ll find that this 30 year support in the 1.35-1.38 zone should not become resistance – polarity principle.
as for me, I’m going to look for a buy pattern (nibble) – folks – this is roughly 1000 pips away so, while it doesn’t look like much on the Monthly chart – it certainly could be a sizable rally right into the “wall of china” polarity principle.
hope you had a great week ….get some.

Natural Gas (NATGAS) NG #F
Posted on July 31, 2016 Leave a Comment
folks, for those of you have been following me for a while you know that sometimes you eat the bar and sometimes the bar eats you. (man I love that movie … the Big Labowski)
anyway, the “bar has eaten me” on Natural Gas. I played w/ a foldback pattern that REALLY looked nice and it basically failed below the levels – BUT the PATTERN still appears to be working …perhaps?
either way, I think we have a big low in place on Natural Gas and I haven’t looked at it for a WHILE after it kicked my butt. looking at it today – I see another potential foldback potential.
man, I wish I had more data on Natural Gas prices …
here’s the “other” foldback that kicked my ass …the form and symmetry sure look nice, don’t they? If right, natgas is about to rip higher ..
here’s a look at $UNG
LONG BOND since 1981

i did this post for @seeitmarket around the TLT (long bond (20 year +) ETF: http://www.seeitmarket.com/tlt-price-target-view-treasury-bonds-stretched-15862/ and the targets around 145 still loom ….
so, here’s the long bond and the TLT charts ….not trying to “call a top” just find patterns. could they keep going higher? well of course ..but man, this is really getting quite crazy now, isn’t it?
note, on a monthly you can see 5 waves completing (30 year continuous) and that should mean a pullback but is it the 5th of the 5th? who knows …
$LIT – Lithium ETF
Posted on July 31, 2016 Leave a Comment
i expect consolidation in/around here w/ 27 being the overlapping of 3 ratios and it SHOULD be resistance.
the key here is the level of the RSI – have we broken out into a new RSI zone that defines a bull market? also, if this is the case are we finishing up 3 on the way up? if we are then this pullback needs to remain above 21.43 as 4 can’t overlap 1.
either way, I expect a pullback here or a little more higher … then it will get VERY interesting.
note the 21 level -some nice overlapping ratio’s, a measured move like the last correction – could be a nice spot to get long
didn’t know there was an ETF for Lithium.
hope this helps.
