S&P500: How to Know the Trend at a Glance

Thu, 10 May 2012 17:00:00
by Vadim Pokhlebkin

When you trade stocks, the question is always the same: What's the trend?

Looking at the market's "fundamentals" today, you'd probably agree that it's a tough call. Europe is tanking, but maybe it's not so bad; U.S. jobs market is improving, but not as well as we'd like. Is the Fed done "stimulating"? Will the ECB lower interest rates? And on, and on.

Here's how Elliott wave analysis helps you cut through the guesswork. In Elliott, there are only two types of wave patterns: impulsive and corrective:

Impulses have 5 non-overlapping waves and point in the direction of the trend.
Corrections usually have 3 choppy, overlapping waves and provide "pauses" for the trend.

Armed with this knowledge, take a look at this 15-minute S&P 500 chart. It's copied from our U.S. Intraday Stocks Specialty Service. You see it here without Elliott wave labels -- those you can see inside the Service. But even without the wave labels, what do you see?

From the top left-hand corner, you see 5 non-overlapping waves down, and in the lower right, you see a sideways consolidation. Right? Congratulations, you've just performed your own basic Elliott wave analysis of an S&P 500 chart. You now know that, at least on this 15-minute time frame, the trend, as indicated by the 5-wave impulse, probably remains down.

Just Announced -- Save $300 on a Legendary Trader's LIVE Course

We've just received feedback from the latest Market Mentor Trading Course, and the ratings were top-notch. Here are just a few of the attendee's comments:

· Dick and Roberto's charts and templates -- along with their incredible knowledge of the markets -- really impressed me. Everyone who trades should join this class!

· Most seminars are always trying to sell you something. This one didn't feel that way. I would absolutely recommend this tutorial to others.

· I've taken a number of courses in the past year, and I consider this the best. Dick and Roberto had a great balance of content and approach to trading -- they both did a great job and provided great information!

· I was impressed by the low-profile attitude of both instructors, and with Dick trading his account in front of the class. This course does a very good job in freeing up one's mind and makes one more independent in trading decisions.

The overwhelming majority of attendees would recommend the class to other traders.

Are you the kind of trader who could benefit from a time-tested methodology and practical information about how to enter a trade quickly, but with a conservative approach?

If so, then this is your chance to save on Dick and Roberto's next event. Diamond has authorized us to offer the first seats to his next course -- July 22-25 in Orlando, FL -- at a $300 discount.

This special offer is only available to the first 5 students to sign up.

At TheMarketTrendForecast.com I use a combination of Elliott Wave Theory and additional technical indicators to ferret out pivot highs and lows in the SP 500, Gold, and Silver for our subscribers. We give updates multiple times per week and try to help guide our members ahead of time so they are prepared to take advantage of market swings. We believe this is a Major 4th wave correction from the 1422 highs and will end up resolving to new highs once this is over. Below is our recent analysis:

Tuesday's Market Video Game Plan for Metals, Oil & SP500

Tue, 03 Apr 2012 15:50:44 +0000
by Chris Vermeulen

Hey Trader’s!

The next few trading sessions should be interesting with precious metals on the verge of a rally which should get the attention of traders and investors once again. If we can get investors to start looking at gold and silver again instead of high dividend paying stocks we will see gold hit $1800 an silver $37.

The SP500 has been pulling back and looks about ready to bounce going into the afternoon.

I recorded my morning analysis explaining what to expect in the market this week and the key support and resistance levels.
