NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Stocks declined, as investors eyed a standoff in Greece's debt-reduction talks and mixed quarterly earnings from a basket of major companies.
CFD Commodities
US Gold CFD: 1677
Technical Analysis:
TradingLevels: The overhead daily trendline held the high in line with the wave count sending the price down to retest support 1650, this is also in line with many other market correcting as well. As with all markets, Indices, currencies etc. the question is, is the move down simply bullish corrective and will when ready see new highs or is a top in play. We normally wait to see if the first leg down is in three waves (corrective) or five waves (impulse equals direction) this should be clear tomorrow or we may have a lead by the time I finish writing this report as there is still nearly four hours before the close
Elliott Wave: As you know on the 4 hour charts there has been a top forming and we are seeing the price roll over, however it is always important to see the evidence of an impulse wave down. After five waves down then there is three waves up (abc counter trend) this is where you look to short and not in during the first fives waves down. Also in this case the you don’t really want to short when the price is above the MediumLevel 1650 you need the 1650 as the retested resistance, a solid resistance price point to work from.
Silver: Silver is holding up better than gold, however it’s still correcting across 32.00 and will likely test 31-SG2 (3165|3172|3180) if not the Midpoint 3150
The 38.2% is 3162 for a wave four, then push up from there?
Oil WTI: 98.76
Technical Analysis:
TradingLevels: If the last low around 97.50 is taken out that would place Oil in the bearish count, while 98 is the support the structure is positive.
Elliott Wave: On the Oil charts the wave count is bearish, however we are waiting for confirmation, from a trading point of view that can be 98.00 as the retested resistance. you can try to scale in earlier between 99 and 98 if you understand the intraday pattern and that would start by seeing the 99 retested twice as the resistance, then use the sublevels to build the trade, with the view of a long term build through 98, 95, 92 and 90 but as mentioned we still need the evidence in the structure and 98 as resistance is a start, otherwise it leaves an open door of upside risk.
Also keep an eye on the wave counts for the Dow/SP500 because of the relationship to oil.
Base Metals
US Spot Prices (in l/b)
US Copper: Last: 3.78+
US Nickel: Last: 9.39+
US Zinc: Last: 0.94+
US Aluminium: Last: 0.99+
Copper CFD: 378
Technical Analysis:
You know the main trend for base metals is up with corrections here and there at certain levels, copper is trapped in SG2 the ASX Materials Sector at the MediumLevel 11,500 US BHP resistance at 80, so we know this uptrend can support the ASX200 and edge it higher slowly until this levels of resistance become support, you also know the ASX200 is dragging its feet in relation to our Asian neighbours, but we are likely to follow up the Shanghai to 2500 the MediumLevel in due course, so the Australian market is positive, it could be the banks that are slowing the ASX200 down, as some Japanese banks with much lower lending rates are eyeing up our home mortgage market waiting to move in, this will flood the market and because our banks are heavily involved in the housing market they are now at risk, we can use CBA being above or below 50 (TL5) as a positive negative indicator for this.
Forex
US Dollar: 80.30
Technical Analysis:
As you know we have been counting five wave down from the high around 82.00, you know we are in the wave five now and in wave five there are five smaller waves which are probably now completed, it’s just a little hard to tell as large numbers like 80 can skew the pattern somewhat, we can look at the CAD but that’s a little tricky at the moment the CHF seems easier and there seems a little lower to come in that.
Any way the move down from 82 is the larger Wave A of an ABC corrective pattern and the Wave B will be starting now, the Euro will be doing the opposite, as will the Indices.
What we can expect is the 80 to hold the price for a while, we will see corrective overlapping pattern at 80 while 80 tries and develops support for the Wave B that should be up for a short time perhaps to 81, the resistances are the Midpoint 8050 then SG2 8065|8072|8080
EURUSD 1.3017
TradingLevels: The price has corrected down below 130 then moved back above, that is a positive. The move up needs to develop support by testing 130 for support, if found then use the sublevel SG1 to work a trade higher
Elliott Wave: The move down from the 13060 to 12950 is in three waves, corrective, so at some point a new high will be made. The move down maybe just the Wave a of and abc for wave four corrective pattern then move up or it can move up now once and if it develops support on 1.30, if there is a move higher, it would be a Wave five and would also complete the larger structure higher the Wave A so targets around the 13072 - 131
Trading Strategies: The 1.30 is the top of MinorGroup1 (MG1) it is also a whole number so we can expect the price to stick to it for a while, so make sure you have clear supports to work from, the 13030 is one of them after a retest of 1.30 confirming demand
AUDUSD 1.0477
TradingLevels: The corrective pattern across 105 is unfolding as thought, the move above 105 roughly 10572 (72) is much the same distance the swing below was to roughly 10430 this is a normal thing and worth noting, this can be in any time frame even the ASX200 swing above 5000 and then below in the big bull and bear market it was only out 100 points. But the main point here is to understand this and use it in all markets and all degrees of structure
Elliott Wave: The move down is either the Wave a) or Wave i) either way it’s completed now and the Wave b) or Wave ii) up is underway, which is a retest of supply with the 105 the pivot in this larger pattern once this move up is completed expect another move down, the norm would be down to 104 but it can stay above the 10450 essentially sticking to 105, if this is the case then the market is strong and it would be worth going long off the 105
Trading Strategies: Well your trading in a corrective pattern, so its trickier, you can look to seel the failed retest of 105 and use the sublevels SG2 with the 10472 being the central pivot but also use the 10465 as a trigger to add to shorts, covering a percentage at the Midpoint 10450 if this becomes the resistance then proceed to 10430 and then cover
11:30am AUD CPI q/q 0.2% 0.6%
Indices
Dow Jones CFD 12,668
Technical Analysis:
TradingLevels: As mentioned below in the Elliott wave, there is a three wave pattern, as long as the last low just above 12600 stays in place its corrective and a move up can occur, the 12,650 is the second support mention yesterday and its holding the price now.
This can be seen as a larger corrective pattern across 12,700, the main numbers in this region are 12,772, 12,720, 12672 these are all 72 number and the 7 is to do with time, which can also translate into the bigger picture 1987 and 2007 etc. any way it’s just one of many small things I like to keep an eye on, I don’t fully understand it but I see it enough to take note.
Elliott Wave: The move down is in three waves (bullish corrective) however it can develop into five waves (impulse) it’s too early to say.
Trading Strategies: The price needs to find support back on 12,700 and long trades on 12,720 otherwise your facing too much exposure, as the price can fail whilst under the 12,700, support on 12,700 would see the price at 12,772 – 12800.
Scalpers can work of the SG2 12,672
S&P500 CFD: 1312
TradingLevels: Can see the resistance at 1320 and now the support at 1310, while the price is above 1300 the market can be treated with a positive bias.
Elliott Wave: small abc correction down from the high to 1305, is this is the case then a new high above 1320
Trading Strategies: Any long trade now need to stay above 105
FTSE 100 CFD: 5777
TradingLevels: Target above 5800, resistance is SG2 5765|5772|5780 the 5772 is the pivot required as support for adding longs. The 5720 SG2 is the support. If the Midpoint can develop support you can use that to scale in long. A larger corrective pattern can emerge while the price is under 5772, it’s not a good idea to over trade around 5800 mTL8 anyway.
Elliott Wave: Is this a top, well if the 5772 becomes the retested resistance then that’s a start, allow three swings across 5772 then look for support or resistance. That is from the high, so we are looking at the first one down and now the beginnings of the fir one up, that’s two. After three then look for support or resistance at 5772
Trading Strategies: Use the sublevels and take profit at the next levels
DAX CFD: 6425
Technical Analysis: The move down last night on the Dax has now retraced 61.8%.
The critical low for day trading is the 6372 the price needs to stay above this to maintain a positive structure and of course use the 6400 as support if it develops and the 6430 as support to build or add to long trades taking part profit at the Midpoint 6450 and the SG2 is the resistance 6465|6472|6480 with the 6472 being the important level
SPI CFD 4230
Technical Analysis:
TradingLevels: The overhead trendline is forcing the price back in to 4200. The AUS is also correcting so it would be a good idea to line the AUD with this market so you can get a feel of when its likely to move. Long trades would only be safer above the 4250. The other factor is waiting for China to reopen
Elliott Wave: The pattern on 4200 is corrective, so a move up when its ready is likely, the negative aspect is the move up from 4000 it’s not a good looking impulse wave its more corrective, but with the Asian markets moving up we have to go along with that general trend
Day Trading: Support 4200 so stops under that for trend traders. Day trading require support on 4230 you can work off 4220 but the 4230 is safer, the 4250 Midpoint is the resistance from the overhead trend line.
11:30am AUD CPI q/q 0.2% 0.6%
Summary
The Corrective pattern down on the US Indices appears to be in three waves the is corrective, therefore new highs should be made.
That said, its still slightly early to confirm these three waves, as they can turn into five waves impulsive, so the low of the last session needs to stay in place.
IF it is three waves down (bullish corrective) then I would think one more high will occur, then a larger correction down would unfold late in the week or early next week.
So if we use the Dow as an example, the last around 12,618 needs to stay in place, if this is the case then we can look at 12,772 and 12,800 as the targets before seeing a larger correction. The European markets are the same, the Australian markets as you know have a relationship with the European markets however that is slipping as we are aligning more with Shanghai and besides money is money from the Euro to AUD
IF correct this would give us time with our Robo Long trades, we should however be clipping small profits along the way.

NEW YORK - (Dow Jones) - US stocks fell Monday after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi made cautious comments on the state of Europe's economy and as bank stocks sagged in expectation of tighter capital standards.CFD Commodities US Gold CFD: 1598
Trading Education;
The current move up is still considered a Wave (iv) rally while the Fibo 38.2% retracement level is around the 1630.
became the resistance then the Wave (iv) is likely completed and Wave (v) down is under way.
I will go over the possible smaller wave counts in the video, such as the 1600 holding as resistance.Silver The retest from 28.00 up, close to 30.00, can just be the Wave a of an abc correction or, that this retest can be completed. Wave four corrections can be complicated sideways patterns. From a trading point of view, there is the safe way and the more proactive way and that would be layering in short positions close to 30.00 and then adding as 29.00 becomes the resistance, then 28.00.However you would need to be clear on the management by either keeping the stops above 30.00 (31.37) or working much closer to the corrective pattern. So, tthere is no correct way, only your way and the risk you accept.Oil WTI CFD: 93.80
Oil, copper and gold have much the same wave count, a Wave four correctional rally that should be short lived. 38.2% is around 96.00.
The other aspect is that oil is working the Midpoint 95.00. It’s starting the series of retests from the support of Minor Group1 93.00, while the battle at 95.00 should eventually fail and the price test lower into 90.00 or at least deeper into MG1. If over the sessions ahead the 95.00 finds support then the short term's bias is bullish, however we monitor the 95/96 as the resistance delivered by wave four.Base Metals US Spot Prices (in l/b)

Trading Education;
The wave four rally in copper started before gold and oil, so we can use this as a lead.
The current high around 337 can be the high of the rally or it can be just the first leg that’s the problem with wave fours, things like triangles occur in wave fours, the main point is that its corrective and should at most move sideways.
The TradingLevels, the price has found support on Group1 {330|320|310}, only when the price is locked under the pivot 320 can the price be pulled down under 300 TL3. We did understand that the price would struggle and bounce around Group1, so we know what is happening here, the pattern is corrective wave four in Group1, so we aren’t going to see a trend, we are seeing and continue to see supports and choppy price action. The advantage here is the pattern lead over other commodities.
Support on 330 the top of Group1 is support.Forex Trading Education; Technical AnalysisUS Dollar CFD: 80.66
The Dollar is basically going to stick to 80 TL8 and for a solid trend up would come from a support off the 80, it is very early days yet, the price is still working through the first high above the level TL8. Drilling down into the first high above the level, the price should make another high above the last high then fold down to 80. If you are going to trade it long then you would have to wait for 81.00 to develop as support with stops under the SG2 {80.65|80.72|80.80} without this support the price has bias to fold back to 80 from under the 81.00. You should also consider working longs through SG1 in the right way, that is scaling in through SG1, this way the market is proving itself, sure it’s less profitable but its more profitable over the long run because you have control the exposure EURUSD 1.3010
Trading Education;
TradingLevels: The corrective pattern on 130 is still going and it’s not tradable while its in SG1 of 130, if it finds support on 1330 then trade long to 131 area or if the 130 becomes resistance then the corrective pattern is completed and the next move down is under way and the 1.280 and 1.2772 is the important price point
Elliott Wave: The Same - Wave (iv) is unfolding at 130 and potentially can move higher to 131, but it is corrective and once completed move down for wave five (v) of 3
Trading Strategies: Support on 1330 trade long. 1.30 as retested resistance trade shortAUDUSD 0.9910
Trading Education;
TradingLevels: Resistance 1.00 Support 98.00 The retesting pattern is much the same as the Euro and Commodities basically a small wave four, the question is, is it completed. It can be but it can also only be the first leg of three legs/ swings, if it is three swings its not going very far from the 1.00 and if it is completed then expect a move to 98 and to trade that would need to see 99 as resistance…
Elliott Wave: short term, expect a bounce off 99 in three waves then down through 99
Trading Strategy: Continue to scalp through the sublevels while around 1.00
Announcement: 11:30am AUD Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes Indices Dow Jones CFD 11880
Trading Education; Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: The trend is down until proven otherwise, yes there is support on 11,800/11,772 SG2 for the Dow and 1,200 for the SP500 and 4000 for the ASX and the Dollar will stick to 80, so it is a juncture to be careful of a reversal to the upside as we have a wave count to match, as you can see on our SP500 charts.
However there is the case for a large move down from here as I have been talking about in the EarlyBird section and the US Treasuries support this downside in fact they are leading the way down the yields are very weak (when Stocks are Down Yields are Down and Dollar is Up and vice versa) or you can use the TLT; When stocks are up, yields are up, TLT is down and dollar is down; and vice-versa! iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treasury Bond Fund (the Fund) seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the Barclays Capital U.S. 20+ Year Treasury Bond Index (the Index). The Index measures the performance of public obligations of the United States Treasury that have a remaining maturity of 20 or more years.
Elliott Wave: The bearish count requires 11,800 as the resistance after it finishes bouncing, the SP500 needs 1,200 as resistance, this will take time
Trading Strategy: Long above 11,772 and short below, wait for these price point to be tested before committingS&P500 CFD: 1212
Trading Education;
TradingLevels: 1,200 support, also the 61.8% retracement support and we are seeing support above 1,200 within SG1 {1230|1220|1210} As you know we have a wave count for the upside off the 61.8% 1,200 so while the price is above 1,200 we have to seriously consider the prospect of a rally. If and when the 1,200 becomes resistance then we can look at a larger bearish picture. It’s not that we are going to miss anything, our main job is not to lose money while the structure develops a direction
Wave count: Working two structures one bullish and one bearish, one of them will become clear for the main trend, but in the meantime the smaller trend is down so short term bias is down.
Trading Strategies: bring stops down to 1227FTSE 100 CFD: 5358
Trading Education;
TradingLevels: As the 1,200 is the support for the SP500 the 5300 top of Minor Group1 is the support for the FSTE.
Elliott Wave: The pattern is the same as the Sp500 and Dow etc. the bias is down.
Day Trading Strategies: Just trade between the sublevels as the price is moving closer to support at 5300.SPI CFD 4080
Trading Education; Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: If 4100 becomes the resistance then the price would work lower to 4000 where it would likely bounce up in three waves.
Elliott Wave: The pattern on 4000 over the Oct Nov period is open for interpretation, however it is forming a triangle pattern and that means when its completed a move down will occur. So what does completed look like, well a triangle in Elliott theory is five swings abcde and so far we have the abcd the current low can be the wave d, so eventually we would see a wave e up, how far would the wave e go, the 4200 is the pivot within Minor Group1 so I could see it finding support on 4200 based off the current low the 61.8% would be the 4200.
Day Trading Strategies: Move stops down to last high above 4100 after the second retest of 4100. New trades need to work SG2 (4080|4072|4065) then the Midpoint, there is a daily trend line cutting through the 4030 – 4050 are double check this. Essentially one the market opens and settle being on the right side of 4072 is the starting line.Trading Education SummaryWe have to continue to trade small ranges with small position sizes until the market develops a clear direction. As you know there are two possible wave counts for the US markets and their pivots are 11772 for the Dow, and 1200 for the SP500. The Asian region appears weaker in line with commodities; we should see support on the 4000 for the ASX200 and a possible bounce. The only lead I can see is from US Treasuries yields to the downside and stocks should fall in line with this and this makes sense as the primary focus is the bond market. But we cannot simply forget about the wave count we have on the SP500.
There is nothing we can do at the moment that I can see to cement a direction in the medium term, it is safer to use the daily Robo. Its a reasonable way to manage risk and let the market trade for you. There are stocks going up and stocks going down, but it doesn’t really matter as long as you set the orders up in front of the market and let the market trade for you. The Robo has a high probability to get you into profit from the entry, so if you take 30% profit by 11.00AM then you have a free trade, then continue as normal with the trade using the Robo, levels and volume.Trading Quote"I'm always thinking about losing money as opposed to making money.

Support on 330 the top of Group1 is support.Forex Trading Education; Technical AnalysisUS Dollar CFD: 80.66
The Dollar is basically going to stick to 80 TL8 and for a solid trend up would come from a support off the 80, it is very early days yet, the price is still working through the first high above the level TL8. Drilling down into the first high above the level, the price should make another high above the last high then fold down to 80. If you are going to trade it long then you would have to wait for 81.00 to develop as support with stops under the SG2 {80.65|80.72|80.80} without this support the price has bias to fold back to 80 from under the 81.00. You should also consider working longs through SG1 in the right way, that is scaling in through SG1, this way the market is proving itself, sure it’s less profitable but its more profitable over the long run because you have control the exposure EURUSD 1.3010

TradingLevels: The corrective pattern on 130 is still going and it’s not tradable while its in SG1 of 130, if it finds support on 1330 then trade long to 131 area or if the 130 becomes resistance then the corrective pattern is completed and the next move down is under way and the 1.280 and 1.2772 is the important price point
Elliott Wave: The Same - Wave (iv) is unfolding at 130 and potentially can move higher to 131, but it is corrective and once completed move down for wave five (v) of 3
Trading Strategies: Support on 1330 trade long. 1.30 as retested resistance trade shortAUDUSD 0.9910
Trading Education;
TradingLevels: Resistance 1.00 Support 98.00 The retesting pattern is much the same as the Euro and Commodities basically a small wave four, the question is, is it completed. It can be but it can also only be the first leg of three legs/ swings, if it is three swings its not going very far from the 1.00 and if it is completed then expect a move to 98 and to trade that would need to see 99 as resistance…
Elliott Wave: short term, expect a bounce off 99 in three waves then down through 99
Trading Strategy: Continue to scalp through the sublevels while around 1.00

Trading Education; Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: The trend is down until proven otherwise, yes there is support on 11,800/11,772 SG2 for the Dow and 1,200 for the SP500 and 4000 for the ASX and the Dollar will stick to 80, so it is a juncture to be careful of a reversal to the upside as we have a wave count to match, as you can see on our SP500 charts.
However there is the case for a large move down from here as I have been talking about in the EarlyBird section and the US Treasuries support this downside in fact they are leading the way down the yields are very weak (when Stocks are Down Yields are Down and Dollar is Up and vice versa) or you can use the TLT; When stocks are up, yields are up, TLT is down and dollar is down; and vice-versa! iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treasury Bond Fund (the Fund) seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the Barclays Capital U.S. 20+ Year Treasury Bond Index (the Index). The Index measures the performance of public obligations of the United States Treasury that have a remaining maturity of 20 or more years.
Elliott Wave: The bearish count requires 11,800 as the resistance after it finishes bouncing, the SP500 needs 1,200 as resistance, this will take time
Trading Strategy: Long above 11,772 and short below, wait for these price point to be tested before committingS&P500 CFD: 1212
Trading Education;
TradingLevels: 1,200 support, also the 61.8% retracement support and we are seeing support above 1,200 within SG1 {1230|1220|1210} As you know we have a wave count for the upside off the 61.8% 1,200 so while the price is above 1,200 we have to seriously consider the prospect of a rally. If and when the 1,200 becomes resistance then we can look at a larger bearish picture. It’s not that we are going to miss anything, our main job is not to lose money while the structure develops a direction
Wave count: Working two structures one bullish and one bearish, one of them will become clear for the main trend, but in the meantime the smaller trend is down so short term bias is down.
Trading Strategies: bring stops down to 1227FTSE 100 CFD: 5358
Trading Education;
TradingLevels: As the 1,200 is the support for the SP500 the 5300 top of Minor Group1 is the support for the FSTE.
Elliott Wave: The pattern is the same as the Sp500 and Dow etc. the bias is down.
Day Trading Strategies: Just trade between the sublevels as the price is moving closer to support at 5300.SPI CFD 4080
Trading Education; Technical Analysis
TradingLevels: If 4100 becomes the resistance then the price would work lower to 4000 where it would likely bounce up in three waves.
Elliott Wave: The pattern on 4000 over the Oct Nov period is open for interpretation, however it is forming a triangle pattern and that means when its completed a move down will occur. So what does completed look like, well a triangle in Elliott theory is five swings abcde and so far we have the abcd the current low can be the wave d, so eventually we would see a wave e up, how far would the wave e go, the 4200 is the pivot within Minor Group1 so I could see it finding support on 4200 based off the current low the 61.8% would be the 4200.
Day Trading Strategies: Move stops down to last high above 4100 after the second retest of 4100. New trades need to work SG2 (4080|4072|4065) then the Midpoint, there is a daily trend line cutting through the 4030 – 4050 are double check this. Essentially one the market opens and settle being on the right side of 4072 is the starting line.Trading Education SummaryWe have to continue to trade small ranges with small position sizes until the market develops a clear direction. As you know there are two possible wave counts for the US markets and their pivots are 11772 for the Dow, and 1200 for the SP500. The Asian region appears weaker in line with commodities; we should see support on the 4000 for the ASX200 and a possible bounce. The only lead I can see is from US Treasuries yields to the downside and stocks should fall in line with this and this makes sense as the primary focus is the bond market. But we cannot simply forget about the wave count we have on the SP500.
There is nothing we can do at the moment that I can see to cement a direction in the medium term, it is safer to use the daily Robo. Its a reasonable way to manage risk and let the market trade for you. There are stocks going up and stocks going down, but it doesn’t really matter as long as you set the orders up in front of the market and let the market trade for you. The Robo has a high probability to get you into profit from the entry, so if you take 30% profit by 11.00AM then you have a free trade, then continue as normal with the trade using the Robo, levels and volume.Trading Quote"I'm always thinking about losing money as opposed to making money.
