SPX: The sharp movement following the FOMC makes it pretty well certain that an important market top has been reached. The targets for SPX were 3032 and 3060 – it appears to have topped out at 2028, so pretty close to the lower target of 3032.
There’s important support at 2950 and the market dropped quickly to that area. It hasn’t touched it yet and might try again.
Bearing in mind the Bradley, which had a low suggested on July 30, allowing a day or two either side might suggest that the low on July 31 was the ‘Bradley low’. The Bradley now suggests a rally into August 8/9/11. This would make sense to me, but might of course be complete nonsense.
SPX might test the 2950 support from above and then subsequently from below – possible route shown on the chart.

and we travel to new aths.I will not risk any money on this idea but it would not
be out of place in a US pre election year.I still like 2007 as my route map.
Let’s take care out there.
Never give up, never surrender.
August 1, 2019 at 02:33 #27201DOW: the Dow has already tested its own key area of support. It might try again, but more likely that it will try to rally to test the broken top support line at 27060.
The big red candle day strongly suggests the ‘top is in’ and it would appear to be a question of looking for good short entry points.

This also marks wave ‘a’ of the top formation. The Dow will likely try to test this support from below. No guarantee that will happen of course.

SPX will probably try to go back upwards to test that area. Interestingly that line at 3001 is also an exact 0.618 retrace of the drop from the top to yesterday’s plunge low.
Of course every man and his dog will be waiting to short at 3000, so the market might not get there, or it might rise slightly higher to overlap wave ‘a’ and make the shorts at 3000 uncomfortable.

I have noticed before that when market moves against
the new moon or full moon, those moves can be very
quickly be wiped out.We traders are just tiny parts of the universe.
