      He is predicting a high based upon a mid 
      cycle?  What about translation.  On the weekly chart I have a 
      price objective of 1244 which has been hit and should offer resistance and 
      a retracement, but nothing at this time indicates 1190 or 1158 in my 
      work.  There is a short term target of 1451 and a retracement target 
      of 1403 and a target on the 8 year cycle of 1880.  Right now there is 
      nothing that has happened to void these up moves.  Can you trade the 
      retracements profitably? yes.  But never forget where you are.  
      What happens if there is further translation of the high? 
       
      Guessing at tops and bottoms can lead to 
      financial disaster.  As a wise man once said, " I will give away the 
      first 10% and the last 10% of a move, just give me the 80% in the 
      middle".  
       
      Will it get to any of these targets?  
      Time will tell, but until I get a sell signal, every downside trade is 
      contra trend on the weekly chart.  Now the other time frames might 
      show a different picture and you have to understand how to integrate the 
      various time frames. 
       
      Once again, one mans thoughts.  Ira.

        from walterbressert.com
         
        The 4-year cycle in the stock market is 
        due to top. In the S&P Index, that 4-year cycle top could be 
        occurring now as the 20-week cycle tops at 1245 the week of 7/29. Expect 
        a decline into the 20-week cycle bottom at the 50% retracement level at 
        1190. A Friday close below 1190 would indicate that prices could drop to 
        the 78.6% retracement level at 1158. It would not be unusual for prices 
        to make a 20-week cycle bottom; then move up and fail to exceed the 
        recent high at 1245. That failure pattern would be a strong indicator 
        that the 20-week cycle top is in place and the 4-year cycle top is most 
        likely also in place. The 20-week cycle is most likely to bottom the 
        week of 8/19 thru 9/16
