2103 and 2114 key to watch

My posts have become more frequent as time, price and pattern further aligned with my SPX projections. My neck is officially stuck out in terms of public and financial position.

Yesterday, I mentioned the HUGE BOW day for SPY. They usually lead to short-term reversals within 1-3 days and sometimes immediately as we see today.

Today, SPX backtested its first trend line break down at 2100ish and there is now quite a bit of price-volume near 2100. The trend line will continue rising and could be backtested again slightly above 2100, but, to my eyes, anything less than 2103 followed by a swift drop would support an impulsive count. A rally to SPX 2103-2114 muddies the count either way, so that might just be what Mr. Market wants to do.

If SPX 2103 holds as resistance, then it is possible that 2126-->2078=48pts has been a series of nested 1-2 waves in which case the heart of a wave 3 down is coming and likely to be >48pts. A reasonably conservative estimate would be 60pts putting SPX near 2040 support (2102-60=2042) which happens to be the equivalent first real support for NYSE too. Then, a back test of 2060 support/resistance would seem normal followed by a series of nested 4-5 waves down to SPX 2000 +/- 1%. That could all happen in a matter of 2-4 days in which case there would still be time for a 2-4 day bounce followed by a lower low into Friday May 15th OPEX +/-.

If SPX exceeds 2103 but does not surpass 2114, the count would be muddied which Mr. Market might like. In that case, I'd probably favor something more like a double zigzag (or flat) lower to 2040ish and perhaps even as far as 1960-2000 into mid-May. If SPX exceeds 2114, the entire move lower to 2078 could still be part of a larger EDT with new all-time highs needed or a 3-3-5 flat could be in play with one more swift impulsive drop to 2040ish. Good fortune.
