Weekly  Stock Market and Trading Strategies Report Week of August 12th

Results and Notes from SRP Swing Trade Service:

We laid low last week as the Wave 2 took hold with the SP 500 Futures hitting 2776 at the lows from 3027 highs and the SP 500 cash hitting 2820 area a few times, but closing at 2844 at the lows for the weeks closing low. This was right in my 2840’s projection for Wave 2 lows.  We stayed in cash until Thursday and put out a Trade on (Reserved for Premium Members) which is in buy ranges. Should be adding more positions this week.

Product Announcement: 3x ETF Trading Service

Short Term and Long Term Elliott Wave Views for the SP 500 Index

Short Term: Wave 2 low so far at 2822 area on SP 500, we are watching 2815 as key support on any pullback and 2790’s comes up after that. If we can pierce through 2976 then Wave 3 is confirmed up from 2822 lows.  A break much below 2790 causes concern.

Long Term: Wave 2 of Intermediate 3 of Major 3 is underway from 3028 highs. We are watching 2815 for support. 300 point rally requires a correction, long term still very bullish as the next wave SHOULD be 3rd of a 3rd of a 3rd. (Wave  3 of Intermediate 3 of Major 3). 3100 plus still in the cards after Wave 2 completes and Wave 3 up is confirmed.

Long Term View:  Int 3 of Major 3 underway to over 3000

Wave 2 down of Intermediate 3 underway, long term over 3100 still in the projections. 2815 area key.

Short Term View: Wave 2 begins

Last week in this section projected 2840’s for a low, which held on a closing basis.  We could pull back again and re-test 2820-2840’s, 2815 is key support. 2976 is overhead resistance to a Wave 3 uptrend.

Weekly ideas and tips on Swing Trading Success:  Adding Risk ON!

During a Wave 2 correction, market participants will tend to flee to cash and bonds and avoid stocks in general. This is the time to start looking for new entry opportunities both as a Swing Trader and Long Term investor. August is often a great month to buy small cap growth names as I said a few weeks ago.  Major market participants take the month of August off and this never helps with volatility, often creating more wild swings than normal. The fact we ran up 300 points in the SP500 during June and July means a pullback is required to clean out the Bulls and wash the sentiment back to negative. This is the time to put some risk on, selectively and that is what we will be doing at SRP.  Companies with strong earnings are still being rewarded, indicating the Bull is still strong.
