May 9th, 2019: SP-500 Chart Update
Posted by pugsma on May 9, 2019
3:00 pm EST: In times of high volatility it’s a good ideal to pull-back to the daily and weekly charts and look at the classic technical analysis levels to watch. On the daily chart the key level to watch is the 50-day SMA at 2860 and on the weekly chart the key level to watch is the 13-day EMA at 2848. So far today the SP-500 sold off and hit 2836 before rebounding to 2875. Thus, the SP-500 is a pivotal level here into the close today. These key daily (2860) and weekly (2848) moving averages are important on a closing basis; that is to say on a daily and weekly closing respectively.
From an Elliott Wave (E-Wave) technical analysis perspective, the primary (green) wave count for a major [4]-P5-C1 wave remains valid above the major [1] high at 2817. That 2817 level is an intra-day level E-Wave to watch and so far has held today with the intra-day low at 2836. It’s been my policy here for nearly 10 years to not change the primary wave count until is goes invalid. Looking at the 15-min chart, there is a valid minor A-B-C wave for major [4] that can be assigned based on the E-Wave rules, where C=2.0*A.
The alternate (red) wave count with a P5-C1 top at 2954 and a C2 wave move down to new lows below 2347, becomes the primary wave count on an intra-day, cash market break below 2817.
