SPX Update: Long Term Count

I have been updating the SPX long-term count in the weekly posts, but before I leave for the summer holidays I wanted to review my preferred scenario.

  • Very long-term trend is sideways/down: From the 2000 Top price is unfolding a Double Zig Zag, therefore now price is involved in completing the wave (X). Once the wave (X) is in place price will begin to unfold the second Zig Zag down towards the 2009 lows.

  • Long-term trend is up: From the November 2008 low price is unfolding the wave (X) within a Double Zig Zag that is not completed yet. If this EWP plays out then off the October 2011 lows price has to unfold the last Zig Zag (ABC) up.

Therefore now price should be involved in unfolding the wave (B), which should not breach the rising trend line support in force from the March 2009 low. Hence the area of 1220 (April 2010 top) and where we also have the 100 d MA is the critical support zone.

Once the wave (B) is in place, price will begin the last impulsive/ending diagonal wave (C) up that is expected to at least retest the 2000 / 2007 highs.

Below in the weekly SPX chart I have the detailed count of the assumed wave (X) in progress.

  • Intermediate-term trend is down:

Since the internal structure of the rebound off the June 4 low is corrective we already know that:

  • The EWP off the April 2 top is not completed yet.
  • It is reasonable to expect at least one more down leg, a wave (C) down that has to bottom in the range 1248-1207

The pending wave (C) down if it bottoms in the mentioned range 1248 -1207 with a positive divergence of the Summation Index will strengthen the scenario that SPX will be able to carry out the "last" wave (C) up during the last quarter 2012.
