US Gold CFD: 1650
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: The resistances at Subgroup2 SG2 1665|1672|1680 are in place while the price retests the MediumLevel support 1650, I would expect the MediumLevel to be broken as part of a larger corrective pattern to unfold as the trend up from 1520 hasn’t been corrected, how far down will the correction come, the 50% retracement level is 1600 and there are supports in SG1 1610|1620|1630 so there is reasonable support to hold the price steady, we should consider 1630 and 1620, if the price does get to here we can look at the structure of the pattern and work out what’s next, simply by seeing if the first leg down is five or three waves. So yes a top is in place and now we need to see if the pattern down is going to be impulsive or corrective.
You can only short if the 1650 is retested and locked in as the resistance, with the view of adding to short further down , say under 1640 and exit at 1630 if 1620 becomes the resistance, then work the trade lower from their, we would need to see the US Dollar move up from its current five waves down, it should move up in three waves and abc correction and therefore Gold should move down in an abc correction
Elliott wave: An abc correction down to 1600? We need to see more of the structure if it does find 1650 as the retested resistance
Silver: The 30 support will be tested and probably broken, as gold didn’t move up enough to find support on 1672 so now a corrective pattern is unfolding down. Do hold long trades if the price moves under 30.00
Oil WTI: 100.50
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: Oil’s pattern up from the 13th is much the same as gold’s, above the 100 the price pattern has overlapping wave structures so a corrective pattern is on the cards
Elliott wave For a bearish bias to start the price requires the 100 to be the resistance, short trades would start scaling in on the first or second failed retest of 100, the first retest would be a bounce off 99 back to 100 and the second retest from the first MinorLevel 98.00 this is the more important one from a technical point of view

US Copper: Last: 3.78+

Copper CFD: 378
Technical Analysis
The main trend is up but we have to expect a corrective pattern at 380 back to 372.
US BHP will struggle at 80 (TL8) and the Australian Materials sector will struggle at its MediumLevel 15000 and the ASX touched on the overhead triangle trendline, as they say Risk On. Remember that the precious metals and Oil are about to correct and the US Dollar find its low after five waves down and the mirror opposite the Euro, US and UK Indices are completing their five Elliott wave up
Forex
US Dollar: 80.40
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: I was expecting the Dollar to complete its five waves down into 80 then bounce in three waves, the Euro, US and UK Indices doing the opposite with their five waves up the down in to 12600 – 12650 the SP500 1310 -1320 and the LSE 5772 – 5800
The five waves down is a little complicated so also look at the CHF and CAD
EURUSD 1.2920
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: The 130 is the brick wall, expect sharper sell offs close to this level, it’s also likely the 129 will be retested for a larger corrective pattern down from the 12950 back to the 129
Elliott wave The impulse wave up retesting 130 is extending and is complicated like the Dollar moving down, as you can see on our Euro chart the wave five is near completion.
Trading Strategies: European bond sales are lifting the price up, but I also think it’s got to do with the next ECB meeting which I think is on the 26 Jan a holiday for us in Australia
AUDUSD 1.04
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: On the daily chart just like the ASX200 there is an overhead trendline from a triangle looking pattern that is casing the resistance the battle is at 104. As long as the price stays above the 10372 SG2 the market is bullish, under the 13050 is not a good look
Elliott wave Still considering the pattern at 104 a wave four once completed a push higher to 10472 - 105
Trading Strategies: It has been very messy for intraday traders, which can frustrate and deter, but keep in mind that the bigger the correction the better the next trend, don’t let it leave without you. If you are long look to add when the SG1 10430 is the support

Indices
Dow Jones CFD 12,600
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: The 12650 is about roughly right for the impulse wave from 12300 to complete. The 12772 and 12800 are the bigger numbers which of course is under the 13000 the Major TradingLevel, the 12800 is a profit taking number and the 12,772 a timing price point and the 12650 is a sublevel that always packs a unexpected punch.
But first things first, the Dow nearly always works to every 100 points so the 12,600 is where we are at, so corrective activity here.
Elliott wave I mentioned about counting five waves up from the 12300, however we can narrow that down, we can count another five waves up from the 12450 which is from the low of a wave four of the five waves up from 12300, so counting five waves up from the 12450 is what you need to do.
Trading Strategies: Give the price more time at 12600 and if you see a corrective pattern below 12600 then the price climbing back above 12600 then scale in through SG1
S&P500 CFD: 1315
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: Resistance at 1320 and a possible move back to 1300 from the 1320, that said if the price finds support on 1330 the top of subgroup1 (SG1) which is also the top of Minor Group1 (MG1) 1300 then higher ground is on the way. That said, I think we are looking at the first high above the level 1300 which should run out of steam and correct across and below 1300 with support at 1272 SG2 zone
Elliott wave five small sub waves ending into 1320
Trading Strategies: depending on your degree of structure that you trade, but wait for a pullback in 1310 after this small corrective pullback if it can climb back above 1310 as support then trade long, if you trade MicroLevels then just work the level and read the volume play
FTSE 100 CFD: 5743
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: Support is building above the (72) 5720 which is a long time coming, the 5750 Midpoint will play its part firstly as resistance then support with the higher targets of the 5772 and 5800
Elliott wave It can fail at 5750 so unless your trading longer term, exit now at 5740+ and wait for support on 5750
Trading Strategies: noted above
SPI CFD 4250
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: The overhead trendline from the triangle pattern knocked the price back to support at 4200 and the second attempt is under way, this time the 4272 will come into play as the resistance this is SG2 4265|4272|4280 you need the 4272 as support for being long
Elliott wave Unsure.
Day Trading: 4250 as support for longs
1:30pm CNY HSBC Flash Manufacturing PMI 48.7
Technical Analysis
The catalysts driving the markets are buying the lows in China (SSEC) with the base metals being the fasted moving vehicle and the ECB meeting looking ever hopeful as European bond selling is actually happening, which actually is digging a deeper whole which in the end will take a wider circle of investor with it. I think the meeting is on the 26/1 so the markets can run to this date.
Back to the base metals which is the driver in Oz, I would expect a correction in Copper from the run its had up, the corrective pattern from 380 to 372 or 365 at the same time US BHP will struggle at 80 (TL8) and therefor the ASX Materials Sector XMJ will struggle at the MediumLevel 15000, if this is the case then this we reflect across our markets.
In this trend up, so the Dow, we can now starting counting five smaller waves from the 12450 which should take us near the 12650… I’m looking for the catalysts that can take our long trades safely higher… the China PMI figures are out today 1 pm and they are centrally important to base metals, the next is our Weekly Bullish Cycle, each day this week has done as expected, so we are looking for a stronger Friday close with Monday also being up. That said don’t over trade and use stops.

The move above 1600 helps clear up structure and target to the 38.2% at 1630 of course take this target with a pick of salt, lets allow the wave c of (iv) play out the wave c will have five wavesSliver has not made a new high and is likely to stay under the 30.00 TL3, this also make silver weaker but we knew this already and is the preferred shortOil WTI CFD: 97.30
Stocks and commodities are in their later stages of rally, there is more upside that should complete next session. The supply zone here is the MinorLevel 98.00 and the 61.8% retracement of the last trend, the 96.50 can develop as the interim support. Day trader can also work with 97.20 and 97.72Base Metals

US Copper: Last: 3.34+
US Nickel: Last: 8.46+
US Zinc: Last: 0.84+

The 61.8% retracement level is up near the 350 and we have to consider this as support has developed on 330 the top of Group1. We can see from the US Indices that there is more upside to play out the structures are two thirds completed and all of these markets are moving together, so copper should complete its rally between the 340 and 350 a guess would be 344 the pattern is an abc corrective rally and the price is in wave c which has five waves and within that it’s at the top of iiiForex
US dollar sharply lower across the board, as stocks drift higher as Housing Starts rise much higher than expected, up 9.3% in November. Many pairs are approaching their critical levels on the 4h charts; Usd/Chf lower, Cable higher and so on..... All eyes on the Aud/Usd now for even higher levels, as S&P shows more and more evidences of a low. A bullish close on the Wall Street today will be a confirmation.
US Dollar CFD: 80.20
The first high above the level (above 80) is in place, this is part of the bigger picture unfolding, the move down from the high above 81.00 is part of the corrective pattern and we have to work out what types of pattern and size. The first thing we can look at is the short term and we can look to the US Indices, we can track the wave count up for the DJ and SP to get some idea of what will happen here. Current he price is sitting above 80 but the time this session is over the price will probably break this support and move lower, the current move down firstly needs to be understood as five wave or three waves, if we get five waves down then after a abc rally there will be another five waves down making a larger ABC down a 5-3-5 Zigzag Elliott wave pattern. For the end of this session the price will stick to 80 and edge down, we will look at the wave structure so far in the video and trading any currency you could also use what is occurring here around 80 and the US Indices to get a feel for the market
EURUSD 1.3080
TradingLevels: From a tradinglevels perspective the current pattern at 131 is an ‘Overshoot’ pattern, simply meaning the price did not react a 131 on arrival it over shot it and the distance it overshot is the distance it will roughly fall back this is normally the first of more swings and the point being is that once it stops swinging and finds the 131 as support or resistance is where you pick up the direction, the swings will diminish into 131. The Elliott wave has an ending structure just above the 131, however you can use the tradinglevels to confirm and position your trades in a much safer way, it is nice to have the Elliott and the levels in the same direction, however when it comes to putting money down you are safer working off the levels as support or resistance because you are working with the volume and the psychology
Elliott Wave: Wave (iv) should be completed now above the 131 however the US Indices have further to push up…
Trading Strategies: if you were long on the 13030 SG1 then you have caught the trend up, but you would have also scaled out at SG2 and 131… and now waiting to see if the Wave (iv) is completed or is there further upside, either way you would monitor the unfolding price action across 131 to develop as support or resistance, if it is support then use SG1 if its resistance use SG2AUDUSD 1.0070
TradingLevels: expect to see a series of wave fours and fives play out across 1.01 today
Elliott Wave: counting an impulse wave up, I will outline this on the 5 minute chart in the video. The larger degree of Wave (D) of IV can be completed but let’s first see if the move up develops as a larger impulse wave or corrective, the main point is to trade the current structure up
Trading Strategy: A very clear impulse structure has emerged, once you understand the pattern and the levels you can trade with it, I will outline the path in the videoIndices
Dow Jones CFD 12,075
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: The price work across both sides of 12,100 which is also the 61.8% retracement level of the move down from the 9th Dec, the Dow can rally higher to 12,200 as the Elliott wave structure up is suggesting, the SP500 resistance is 1250 a 72% rally if this becomes support then we have a larger structure up
Elliott Wave: The bounce of 1,200 for the SP500 came in on cue which in turn is the 11,800 for the Dow, we can work out the internal structure up but what does need confirming is working out is it a corrective rally or will new highs be made to 12500+. As you know we are working both wave counts bullish and bearish, I know this is not helpful as such, but we really do have to sit and wait for clarity in the structure
Trading Strategy: If your long above 11,772 then well done and wait for the price pattern to unfold at 12,100 that should be the top of a wave three so a wave four across 12,100 with another push higher into 12172. Locking is some profit here at 12,100 is sensible.S&P500 CFD: 1238
TradingLevels: Well the rally sure did come in quick based of US housing data, the current price 1235 is at the 50% retracement level of the Dec 9 drop, it can fail from here, but we should expect a little more upside to 1250, however, support must be found on top of SG1 1230 before 1250 can be viewed. Another point is that all the supply (sellers) start above 1230 so what you have seen over night is not what you’re going to get now, if the market is going to move up it will creep and short trades can be looked for soon
Wave count: Working the two structures still until the medium pattern becomes clear, the move up can be a corrective rally or wave 1 of a larger five wave structure, so keep all trading in the sublevels
Trading Strategies: expecting a move down to 1230 as wave four then a push higher for wave five, the resistance is 1250 these are sublevels, there are MicroLevels if your day trading.FTSE 100 CFD: 54.28
TradingLevels: The rally up has been quite strong but it has not rally as far as the US indices in relationship to the last highs in early Dec.
Elliott Wave: The rally up is developing into an impulse wave (five waves) the current prices are near the top of wave three, you should be able to count this up, so wave four and five to go then a corrective pattern down abc?
Day Trading Strategies: day trading the sublevels with the understanding of the wave count
SPI CFD 4080
Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: The FSTE and the SPI have not rallied as far as the US Indices, that is the relationship to the previous highs, not that this is a big deal, it just points out the weakness of the FSTE and the SPI markets.
Elliott Wave: The Triangle pattern mentioned yesterday and the supporting trendline seem to be in tune with the bounce off the SP500 1200 61.8% support. The current move up is developing nicely as an impulse wave and should the SPI should move to 4150 where the resistance basically starts
Day Trading Strategies: The SG2 {4065|4072|4080} played out nicely. The SG1 of 4100 {4110|4120|4130} will try and hold the price to 4100, if the price finds support on top of SG1 4130 then you can trade to the Midpoint 4150 exit and wait for support to move back in.Summary
Nice intraday impulse wave up across markets,, the move was off the 1,200 61.8% retracement level of the SP500 the catalyst news was the US house stats. The impulse wave up in most cases in just over two thirds complete.
The unanswered question is still the medium term view or the Minor Wave within the Elliott structure about the market being bullish or bearish.
The Bullish structure would count like this; the impulse wave last night that is not completed yet would make wave (i) of a larger five wave structure up, which would take the Dow above 12,500…
The Bearish structure would keep the current December highs in place.Weekly bullish cycle can see Wednesday with the weekly high or rather its Thursday that Gaps open then trades down for the day, creating the weekly high. The Wednesday is more of a V shape trading day with higher close.

Nice intraday impulse wave up across markets,, the move was off the 1,200 61.8% retracement level of the SP500 the catalyst news was the US house stats. The impulse wave up in most cases in just over two thirds complete.
The unanswered question is still the medium term view or the Minor Wave within the Elliott structure about the market being bullish or bearish.
The Bullish structure would count like this; the impulse wave last night that is not completed yet would make wave (i) of a larger five wave structure up, which would take the Dow above 12,500…
The Bearish structure would keep the current December highs in place.Weekly bullish cycle can see Wednesday with the weekly high or rather its Thursday that Gaps open then trades down for the day, creating the weekly high. The Wednesday is more of a V shape trading day with higher close.
