Wave Counts:
- The primary (white/green) wave count is that minor 3 of major [1]-P3-C3 is complete or near complete at 4186. The minor 4 retrace target is at the 23% Fibs of 4096 to 4023. Ultimately once the minor 4 completes, the minor 5 of major [1]-P3 wave should target the 4288 to 4332, where minor 5=0.62*minor 1 to minor 5=1. Note: The primary (white/green) count minor 4 of major [1] wave up remains valid above the minor 1 high of 3946.

Steve, trying to figure out if you are cautioning for watching for the red count here if we were to start selling down

So Iβm thinking Ms Market will be cruel in the next month or two.
1) Most investors went to a good deal of cash in May-June, suffered a net big loss from 4819, and now missed this +15% move up from 3637 to 4160.
2) Some are now panicking and chasing here at 4100+
Ms Market is going to try to suck them back in here from 4160 to as high as 4340, then drop into a major [2] plunge. They will panic again and loss more money selling what they bought at the top of major [1] at bottom of major [2]. Then Ms Market will turn around much higher in major [3] up leaning them behind once again.
