Gold turning South

Hi Traders,

Gold (now at 1405) initiated a sharp downturn that might drag it down to 1300 and below.

ELLIOTT WAVES

After the low at 5c, the monthly chart staged a 1-2-3-4-5 that seems to be completed. Consequently, Gold could start a downturn to the 1300 area.

This 5 waves pattern looks like a large Wave 4 of a downtrend. In this pattern, the first 4 legs are made out of 3 smaller waves and the last wave (wave 5) is made out of 5 waves.

All this religiously happened: see weekly and daily charts. NOTE: a further confirmation is provided by the Gann "throw over", that occurs where wave 5 shoots through the upper boundary of the wedge. See the daily chart.

The 4-hours chart displays the reverse pattern at 55C5.

Red alert for the ASX 200

Hi Traders,

Although the ASX 200 (now at 6475) has still the potential to get to 6800, the current uptrend doesn't seem trustworthy anymore and it might be more prudent taking your profit home.

ELLIOTT WAVES

The monthly chart shows a pattern that could be a giant wave 4 unfolding with an a-b-c.  Wave b, made of 5 waves up, is almost complete (although unusually built of 5 waves up instead of 3 or 7 waves up). Still, however you want to put it, we might be close to a major top.

Note the theoretical target at 6680-6750.

The weekly and daily charts show that the ASX 200 unfolded an uptrend that  is suspiciously similar to a pattern called the-fifth-of-the-fifth-of-the-fifth.

This means that we might have seen a top - or be really close to a top - due to the completion of all the major and minor fifth waves.

Finally, the 4-hours chart displays a lot of dangerous reversal candlesticks as well a declining volume.

WTI OIL just topped

Hi Traders,

For those who want to get to the professional level, please check my mentor program.


ANALYSIS


The WTI OIL (now at 55.73) just topped. Closest target: the area 53-51 (theoretically, 51.24).


ELLIOTT WAVES

The monthly chart reveals that the WTI OIL unfolded four major waves down (in magenta) and started major wave five downward after the top at 77.

In the weekly chart, the first part of major wave five (wave 1) took the Oil down to 42.35. Then retraced to 57.85 (wave 2) and now seems to be heading down again by starting wave 3.


The daily and 4-hours charts confirm that wave 2 was made of three waves up (as it's supposed to be). It also show a double top and reversal candlestick pattern, confirming that a top-and-reverse is in place.

Finally, the 1-hour chart shows a "breakaway pattern", meaning that the next movement should be down.

NOTE

There is still the chance that (in the weekly chart) this is a temporary retracement down.

If this is the case, the OIL could be stopped by the support around 51 and reverse. In so doing, it would make a new high anywhere between 64.80 and 93.60.

Instead, if the OIL crosses that support around 51, we need to consider 26.00 as the next support.

Gold just topped

Hi Traders,

For those who want to get to the professional level, please check my mentor program.


ANALYSIS

Although I thought that Gold (now at 1323) was going to top at 1333/4, it topped at 1346/7. The next leg should point down, starting with the target at 1236.


ELLIOTT WAVES

The monthly and weekly charts display a large wedge which is an  accumulation pattern (a-b-c-d-e). Theoretically, next large wave should tank from now on.

The daily chart and the weekly chart clearly show that the whole set of 5 waves up - from the bottom at d - is religiously in place. These waves formed wave e which topped right now.

The EURO to top soon?

Hi Traders,

The Euro (now at 1.146) might not make it through the 1.165 resistance. Hence, it could reverse course soon to target the area around 1.1040.

ELLIOTT WAVES

The monthly and weekly charts reveal some information:

1) The Euro is performing an a-b-c retracement wave from the top at 1.6037.

2) Wave c is sub-divided in 5 waves down. Wave four seems is
 fully deployed and wave five downward is already half away to 1.1040.

However, wave four can unfold with different shapes. In particular, it could evolve into a much large pattern which includes a rally to 1.27-1.30 before resuming the downtrend. We'll see.

The daily and 4-hours charts show that wave 5 (from the top at 4 in magenta) is currently unfolding with 5 minor waves, 3 fully deployed and the 4th one almost complete. If this is the case, minor wave five could be heading to 1.104 soon.

Gold to top soon?

Hi Traders,

Happy New Year! This is the first newsletter of the 2019.
For those who want to get to the professional level, please check my mentor program.


ANALYSIS

Although Gold is trying to get to the area 1300-1308 (see the target lines in the daily chart), it also shows the signs of a commodity running out of steam and it might turn South before reaching that target.

Note the exhaustion gap in the 1-hour chart.


ELLIOTT WAVES

The monthly and weekly charts display a very large accumulation pattern (a-b-c). From the top at C, Gold has now staged 4 small waves downward (out of 5). Wave 5 might take the commodity to the area 1155-1131 or even 1100.

The daily chart and the weekly chart clearly show that the whole set of 4 waves down - from the top at C - is religiously in place. If Gold tops soon, it will mark the completion of wave 4, starting a new downtrend to be labelled wave 5.
