Are Rising Wedges a cause for concern?

   Historically, most rising wedges are 5 months long or less. These rising wedges are 29 months long.

   Just over half of the rising wedges have a pullback. So far, these have all had a pullback on the DJI, NYA,
and S&P ... in other words, they failed the wedge's support, went down, and then moved backup to the resistance line.
The S&P's Rising Wedge chart below has a classical formation appearance.

   On all the rising wedges studied that were 5 months long or less ... there was a 90%+ down-further success
rate if it failed after the pullback. We don't know two things right now. 1. Will these historical statistics
apply to a 29 month wedge? ... and 2. We don't know if this rising wedge will "fail its pullback" yet.
Right now it is sitting right on its pullback resistance line.

   That brings up the third possibility ... some rising wedges have failed and then continued on after a pullback
to rise to the apex (meeting point of both resistance/support lines) and then have made a serious drop
of around 20%. Some have gone down much further. If this turns out to be the case, then the latest
it would take to get to the top of the apex is the end of this September or the first week of October.
The Rising Wedge for the DJI will peak on October 12th.

   This Wedge resistance test is as important as any Major test has been, so be cautious and watch
these wedges carefully in the coming days.
