Weekly Market Map Forecasts and Swing Trading Ideas Report: January 27th
- Market Analysis – B wave path possibly concluding soon, 2715/2740 top end
- SRP YTD performance – last 14 trades profitable for 13% average gains!
- Our Market Maps are keeping us on the right side of the trade!
- The Market is up +329 points in 5 weeks: When will the market pull back? How much and what are the targets?2019 General Outlook (Subject to Change)General intermediate view is B wave rally from 2346 continues off the A wave low. This B wave could meander for a few more months even into May 2019 before a larger and firmer C wave down into the 3rd quarter 2019 tests the lows or into the 2000-2100 SP 500 area. Obviously this is subject to change but that is loosely our view now.- Dave, Chief Strategist
For the holiday-shortened week ending Jan 25th, the major indices rallied off Tuesday’s lows to close the week flat, but ending a 4 week positive streak for the SP 500.
Week ending 1/25: SP 500 -0.22% Russell 2000 +0.02% Nasdaq 100 +0.04% Dow Jones 30 +0.12% If you haven’t put any money to work over the month of January, now is probably not the time to chase or get too aggressive, with the SP 500 up 330 points off its Dec 24th low in 5 weeks. The market is doing a good job of going from one extreme to the next – extreme sell signals to (now) extreme buy and or overbought signals, which is exactly what a B wave is intended to do.
Fortunately, we used our Market Maps and Elliott Wave pattern analysis to position ourselves the past few weeks at market pivots and have closed our last 14 trades profitably for 13% avg gains per trade since beginning of January. SRP Swing Trade Members continue to be off to a great start in 2019.
We know we’ll have this streak end at some point, and we’re not taking that for granted. However, as swing traders, we welcome volatility, and you should too! We will do our best to position accordingly near turns and be defensive when necessary. Most likely we’ll be taking profits on our many positions in the current Model Portfolio soon, where appropriate.
Since our call for Interim A bottoming at 2346, the SP 500 has rallied 329 points, or +14%.
Many of our open positions in the SRP Swing Trade portfolio are in really attractive weekly base patterns, so we could see a few break out to the upside soon…be patient. The largest percentile moves usually come in very quick windows of time, and right after most traders give up and move on.
Our year to date performance is shown below.
SRP Model Performance (YTD):
The SRP model portfolio has outperformed the SP 500 by 12% YTD! The Russell 2000 index is up 10% YTD, and we are still ahead of the curve there on a relative basis.
On to some charts for this week…
SP 500 Charts: Interim B wave in progress, 2713 / 2757 large fib targets, 2741 200 dma
Biotech (XBI) Chart: bearish hanging man candle last week, unfilled gap below
Bottom Line: B wave of a Bear market rally , possible larger C wave in 2019 to test lows or worse?
- Interim Wave B up from the ABC – A to 2346 on SP 500 should be close to completing (or possibly just A of Interim B, (A-B-C – B) A pullback after this coming week would make sense.
- Interim Wave B 2572, 2640 targets have been met. 2684, 2705, and 2726, which represent C wave ratio of the 174 pt A leg up from 12/24 – 1/2. Our original upside target of 2715 is also approaching. 200 dma is at 2741.
- Market should test the downtrend line resistance this week, and we’ll see reaction there.
- 4 weeks up straight, followed by a bearish hanging man candle last week, means we should start seeing weakness. Big earnings week for many SP 500 bellwethers. So far, we have seen 71% of reporting companies beat the estimates.
- Continue to stick with us, as we will continue to lean on our Market Maps to guide us through the next cycle leg. We have been fortunate to take advantage of this oversold rally off extreme bottoming in December, and we ask you to stay with us by following the alerts and advice through all cycles if you can for best results!
