SPI200: SETUP & TRIGGER
Note that, to make things more clear, I no longer show displaced moving averages on charts.
SETUP
The SPI200 future seems ready for the very last (little) rally that would start a major bearish reversal.
Last week I said that we were starting a rally - heading to the area around 4686 - and the rally occurred promptly. I also said that this rally might stop running early - in the area 4565-4583 - hence staging a double top.
However there's now a good chance for it to stop even earlier: around 5414-17. Consequently: keep your eyes open for a reversal candlestick.
TIMING:
Some Fibonacci calculations reveal the chance of the top around Dec 10-11 if this uptrend pace slows down significantly. If it doesn't, we don't have more then 2 trading days
TRIGGER
To my knowledge, it might not be worth going long. Just wait for the reversal candlestick on the 5min and 15min chart, bearing in mind that it might happen during our sleeping time.
SITUATION
The whole pattern, is a huge retracement wave 2 down (see "e2", bottom right), started in April 2010 and it's shaping a "1-2-3-4-5" pointing down, as in the monthly chart below. We are currently completing leg 4 up.
Leg 4 up is part of correction wave "2" made out of the above mentioned 5 legs and ending down in the area named "e2", the lower cluster of horizontal lines.

The blue channel - weekly chart below - shows that the major wave 4 (in red, top right, font 12, near the apex of the triangle) is, in turn, made of 5 waves itself. The 5th one is now heading to 4555 and it's theoretically supposed to reach the upper channel line at 4628.

In the daily chart below, the last wave up stopped at 4482 which is exactly the 61.8% retracement of wave 1 in red. However, it should be heading to 4514-17 if it overcomes this resistance

The 4hour chart below doesn't show any sign of a reversal candlestick yet augmenting the probability to reach 4514-17
