Price has yet again, at least as of today's action, failed to break 
the 37.5% retracement level from the 5/19 move down. Once again we have hit 
and bounced off (for now) of the 1291 area. If the 1290-1300 level doesn't hold, 
then we are looking at a move into the 50% retracement area first at the 
1321 area. I would still expect the 1300 level if achieved, to provide 
resistance first, unless the market is very strong at that 
time.

  I’ve been 
  staring at the last 2 ½ days of SPY, DIA and QQQQs and I can’t refute the 
  proposition that all 3 have completed or are very close to completing ending 
  diagonals and each are near key fib levels.  If so, a small amount of up 
  and/or topping sideways tomorrow and then down.  The larger counts are 
  different; SPY and DIA are ‘c’ ending diagonals following a flat while QQQQ is 
  a ‘c’ ending diagonal following a b wave triangle which is complete.  
  Many will be looking for an ‘e’ down in SPY and DIA but for that to be the 
  case 1) I’m having trouble counting fives in the last 2 days up (3 waves 
  internally) and 2) QQQQ have already completed a wave AFTER its already 
  complete abcde b wave triangle; how can it extend its thrust if the other 
  markets are taking and e down and then a thrust up?  The fly in the 
  ointment is the level of retrace for these c waves; the a is larger than the c 
  (all are about 62% of a) and higher fib levels are available.  But, they 
  have made new corrective highs and this is a bear market…..I believe.  It 
  wouldn’t even take a truncation to stop them here and now.
  A twitch up 
  tomorrow (maybe) to reset some very short term oscillators, some topping 
  sideways, then down.  Just an opinion.

  All stock indexes share Near 
  Impulse dates of 8/8 and 8/9 and all indexes are nearing a price levels where 
  reversals may be expected. I do not have explicit sell signals yet but do 
  expect them in the next two days. These are areas where stops should be 
  tightened and profits protected.
