"Higher for longer" to stay with usDuring yesterday’s FOMC press conference, Jerome Powell outlined the resiliency of the U.S. economy and labor market. In addition to that, the chairman reiterated the FED’s commitment to fighting inflation and bringing it to the goal of 2%. However, when asked whether the FED is confident about financial conditions being restrictive enough to finish the fight, the chairman answered that they are not confident about this fact and that more rate hikes might be on the table. Furthermore, Powell explained that all the effects of cumulative tightening had not been felt yet, allowing them to pause rate hikes and reassess the situation based on the upcoming data. With that said, we expect the policy of high-interest rates to continue to exert pressure on the economy, slowing it down. Plus, we disagree with FED’s outlook for no recession in 2024.

Time for a slight rebound?The S&P 500 Index bounced off the support near $4,103 on Friday. Then, today, the futures market opened up about 0.5%, bringing the index closer to $4,140 (by the way, on Friday, the futures market also opened up by approximately the same amount). Now, we will observe whether the index will overtake its Friday high; if yes, it will bolster the odds of a rebound in the short term (potentially up to somewhere between $4,200 and $4,300). For more clues about the rebound, we will also watch the Chinese stock market as we expect it to go through the relief ahead of the U.S. stocks (as a matter of fact, SSE has already been trending up in the last week, with HSI somewhat lagging). However, if SPX fails to take out its Friday high, accompanied by a spike in the VIX, it will alert us to more downside. The list of some of the corporations reporting their earnings this week: - Advanced Micro Devices NASDAQ:AMD - Airbnb NASDAQ:ABNB - Apple NASDAQ:AAPL - Caterpillar NYSE:CAT - CVS Health Corp. NYSE:CVS - HSBC Holdings NYSE:HSBC - McDonalds NYSE:MCD - Pfizer NYSE:PFE - Pinterest NYSE:PINS - Shopify NYSE:SHOP - Stellantis N.V.

S&P500 This trend-line separates bull from more pain.The S&P500 index had a green session yesterday as the price made a Lower Low at the bottom of the Channel Down and seems to be rebounding. Technically that is the bullish leg towards the new Lower High, with the previous being priced on the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line). This Channel Down however, on a 1D RSI basis as well, resembles the August - October 2022 pattern. Both corrections have almost 1 year between them. If the long-term structure that connects them is a Channel Up, then there is more selling ahead, with the potential Support/ long-term Accumulation level being on the 1W MA200 (red trend-line). In October 2022, that level was continuously tested for 2 weeks in a row and held. The bottom of that Channel Down was confirmed after the 4H MA150 (green trend-line) broke to the upside. As a result, a fair guess would be to buy if a break-out above the 4H MA150 (now at 4275) takes place again. If it does, we will buy again and target the standard +20% medium-term rise within this 12 month span (happened 3 times) aiming at 4930 (would make a new All Time High). If the index stays below the 4H MA150, we will wait until the price bounces off the 1W MA200 and buy with 4740 as the target. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

S&P500 Channel Down bottom buy opportunity.The S&P500 index reached on Friday the bottom of the 3 month Channel Down and today's big (1d) green candles shows us that the Lower Low is most likely priced. Technically this is the most ideal buy entry for a rise towards the top of the pattern. Every top/ Lower High reached at least the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level. Trading Plan: 1. Buy on the current market price. Targets: 1. 4285 (0.618 Fibonacci level). Tips: 1. The RSI (1d) made a Double Bottom and rebounded, a strong bullish sign. Pay attention to the Falling Resistance, you may want to book the profit earlier on a potential rejection there. Please like, follow and comment!! Notes: Past trading plan:

S&P500 That's the longest correction since 2011.More pain ahead?S&P500 (SPX) has been on a correction mode since the week of July 24, completing 13 straight weeks (91 days) of pulling-back without a 50% retracement. As you can see on the charts above, which are on the 1W time-frame, this is the strongest such correction since October 03 2011, which stretched for 21 weeks. Even the recent Inflation Bear Cycle of 2022 had three separate correction phases of no more than 11 weeks. In total since 2011 there have been 12 such corrections (including the current), so we can realize just how long this one has gone without at least a 50% Fib retracement. This may indicate that potentially we are at or near the bottom. On the downside, it did break and close this week below the 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) and the next Support in line is the 1W MA200 orange trend-line) at 3940. Do you think it's time to rebound to the 0.5 Fib or the index 'needs' to technically reach the 1W MA200 first? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

SPX Market Crash: The 150y Elliott WaveThis is an SPX chart from 1872. A 150 year old chart. As you know, I am the Elliott Wave Jedi. So, I took the liberty of labeling this SPX500 chart. There's only one thing I can say: "SNP500 is preparing for a BIG Drop, a Market Crash". My Wave Count suggests that a major Bearish Swing is starting, or will start soon. The 2009 lows are inevitable. Price Action will be drawn there like a magnet. Calling all Autobots! ( SPX , SPX500 , SPX500USD , SPXUSD , US500 , SP500 ) A Recession is due and bigger events will crash the markets globally. * Some more details in the related ideas. Fundamental Analysis & Facts: * Fear vs Greed: VIX (Volatility Index) It will spike! * US Consumer Confidence Index: USCCI People are worried about the future. * US Inflation Rate: USIRYY War is coming. * US 10y Yields: TNX The 40y Downtrend Break-Out * US 10y Bonds: USB10YUSD Bonds Rush, Investors & Fear Technical Analysis: Elliott Wave Cycles The Wave Count tells me that a Major Degree is ending, in this case it's the SubMillenium Wave 3. If you are good at counting waves, then you can see that as well. The Elliott Wave Time Degrees are on the chart. Levels I am watching: $4500 & $6500. IMO, SPX has already started the Recession Bearish Swing, so I am already treating the ATH as the actual top. In case of another ATH, then this will mean that the current position was a SuperCycle (IV). After the last 5th, SPX will surely drop, from around $6500 back to $1100. However, as I said: "I believe the Markets have topped, and that the Recession has started". Check out a close-up: 2009-2022 Elliott Wave Count. I am shorting the Markets. Good luck guys and many pips ahead! Richard, the Wave jedi. P.S. Props to @TradingView for providing this 150y old chart.

A Traders’ Playbook – Defence remains the best form of attack Equity continues to trade heavily, and while we are getting to a point of extreme fear, the price action, and the bearish momentum in EU, AUS200 and US equity indices, suggest this is still a sellers’ market. While we have some big catalysts due this week, I still think we must navigate a passage of darkness before we see light in this tunnel. The geopolitical backdrop in the Middle East remains a dominant market consideration and the market still sees an increasing risk the conflict will not be contained with other players stepping into the conflict. A near 3% rally in Brent crude on Friday testament to those worries, with the move above $90 seeing traders bid up gold to $2006, with gold's role as the preeminent portfolio hedge once again confirmed. A move into the April/May supply area of $2050 seems perfectly feasible, and the bullish momentum in the price, and the ease by which we’ve seen gold push through well-watched resistance levels, suggests the path of least resistance remains higher and pullbacks should be well supported. The BoJ meeting could be a real curveball and while the odds are we see it proving to be a low-volatility event, if the BoJ does tweak the YCC cap to 1.5% it could trigger a wave of selling through global long-end bonds (yields higher). This would likely see sizeable gyrations play through all markets, with the JPY – which has stolen the crown from the CHF as the no.1 geopolitical FX hedge – likely to rally hard. Gov Ueda has aimed to be more predictable than former gov Kuroda, so with recent press suggesting a tweak to YCC could be on the cards, the prospect of change to policy is 50:50. We also get the US Treasury Quarterly Refunding activity throughout the week. To those who aren’t fixed-income traders, this can be an event that isn’t too well-known. As we saw in August, when the Treasury Department detailed increased auction size in its financing plans, it proved to be a key driver behind US Treasury yields rising sharply from 4%. Once again, this event does have the potential to create some big vol in bonds, which could spill over into FX and equity markets. This time around, could we see lower increases in supply, which in turn supports USTs? Staying in the US, while the FOMC meeting can never be ignored, traders get a thorough read on the US labour market and wages/earnings. On the docket, we get ADP payrolls, the Employment Cost Index, JOLTS job openings, Unit Labour Costs, jobless claims, and nonfarm payrolls. US swap pricing has a 25bp hike in December priced at a 20% chance, so big numbers in this report could see that probability rise, which would likely see the USD break out of the current sideways consolidation. Corporate earnings get another run past traders, with 24% of the S&P500 market cap reporting. Apple is the marquee name to report, with the options market pricing a move on the day at 3.7% - the market focused on iPhone demand and consumer trends in China. Rallies have been sold of late, with price now below the 200-day MA for the first time since 2 March 2022. It promises to be another lively week – good luck to all. The marquee event risks for the week ahead: Month-end flows – talk is pension funds and other asset managers rebalancing in favour of selling of USDs. China manufacturing and services PMI (31 Oct 12:30 AEDT) – the market sees the manufacturing index at 50.2 (unchanged) and services index at 51.8. EU CPI (31 Oct 21:00 AEDT) – while EU growth data seems the more important factor, we could see some volatility in the EUR on this data point. The market consensus is for headline CPI to come in at 3.1% and core CPI at 4.2%. EURCAD is trending higher, and I like it into 1.4750. BoJ meeting (31 Oct – no set time) – the BoJ should increase their inflation estimates, but the focus will fall on whether there is an adjustment or even full removal of Yield Curve Control (YCC). This is where the BoJ currently cap 10-yr JGB yields (Japan Govt bonds) at 1%. The consensus sees no change to YCC at this meeting, but there is a 50:50 chance we see the cap lifted to 1.5% - an action which could see JGBs sell off (higher yields) and see global bond yields higher in symphony. It could also see the JPY rally strongly. US consumer confidence (1 Nov 01:00 AEDT) – The market expects the index to pull back to 100.0 (from 103.0) – unlikely to cause to much of a reaction across markets unless it’s a big miss. US Treasury November Refunding (30 Nov at 06:00 & 1 Nov 12:30 AEDT) – the US Treasury Department (UST) will offer its gross financing estimates for Q42023 (currently $850b) and end-of-quarter targets for its cash balances. It is likely that the gross borrowing estimate will be lowered to $800b, perhaps even lower. The lower the outcome the more USTs should rally and vice versa. On 1 Nov we will see the UST announce the size of upcoming bond auctions across the 2-, 3-, 5-, 7-, 10- and 30-year bond maturities. The market expects auction sizes to increase across ‘the curve’ by around $1-2b for each maturity. As we saw in August, the higher we see these taken the greater the likely reaction in US Treasuries and subsequently the USD. FOMC meeting (2 Nov 05:00 AEDT) – The market ascribes no chance of a hike, so guidance from the statement and Powell’s press conference is key. One can never overlook a Fed meeting, but in theory, we shouldn’t learn too much new information and this should be a low-drama event. BoE meeting (2 Nov 23:00 AEDT) – UK swaps price a 4% chance of a 25bp hike at this meeting, and around a 1 in 3 chance of a 25bp hike by Feb 24. The split in the voting could also be important, with most economists leaning on a 6:3 split. The market feels like the BoE are done hiking, with cuts starting to be priced by June. US ISM manufacturing (2 Nov 01:00) – The consensus is for the index to come in at 49.0 (unchanged). Consider that the diffusion index has been below 50 since October 2022, so a reading above 50.0 could be modestly USD positive. US JOLTS job openings (2 Nov 01:00) – Last month we saw a big increase in job openings and further evidence the US labour market is tight. The consensus this time around is for 9.265m job openings (from 9.61m) – risky assets will want to see this turn lower again with reduced job openings. US nonfarm payrolls (3 Nov 23:30 AEDT) – With so many labour market and wage/earnings data point due out this week, the US NFP report is the highlight. After last month’s blowout 336k jobs print, the current consensus is for 190k jobs, the U/E rate at 3.8% and average hourly earnings at 4%. Brazil Central Bank meeting (2 Nov 08:30 AEDT) – The BCB should cut by 50bp. Earnings – This week we see earnings from UK, EU and US listed names coming in thick and fast - 24% of the S&P500 market cap report this week. Numbers from HSBC (Monday), Caterpillar (Tuesday) AMD (Tuesday), Qualcomm (Wednesday), Apple (Thursday) should get the attention.

S&P500: Megaphone buy opportunity.S&P500 is almost technically oversold on the 1D timeframe (RSI = 30.205, MACD = -54.210, ADX = 37.499) with the price reaching the 0.618 Fibonacci level from the March 13th Low. The last time the RSI was at 30.000 was on October 3rd, the previous LL of the Bearish Megaphone pattern. The two bullish sequences of this pattern have been around +4.60%. Since this is a double bottom signal, we expect a rise of equal proportion, targeting the 1D MA50 (TP = 4,315).

S&P500 on its 1week MA50. Expect +4600 Xmas rally if it holds.The S&P500 / US500 hit this week the 1week MA50 after 7 months. This is a major Support level, considering that it also made contact with the Rising Support of the 2022 market bottom. Also the 1week RSI hit the 12 month Support. As long as the 1week candles close over this, buy and target 4610 (annual High). This may be achieved before the end of the year since every rally in the past 2 years, even during the 2022 correction, was very aggressive. If the index closes a 1week candle under the MA50, we should technically see a test of the MA200. Fair estimate at 4000. Previous chart: Follow us, like the idea and leave a comment below!!

Panic is slowly setting in, VIX highest since late March 2023Yesterday, the Volatility S&P 500 Index hit its highest value since late March 2023 (when regional banks were imploding), reflecting a quickly deteriorating sentiment among market participants. Both SPX and ES1! constituted a new daily low, which continues to support a bearish case. This case is also supported by RSI and Stochastic reversing on the daily time frame and MACD flattening slightly below the midpoint (failing to break into the bullish area). As for the weekly time frame, all of the mentioned indicators develop bearish structures. In our view, more downside is very likely, with SPX testing its recent lows.

A Traders’ Weekly Playbook; Buying risk when its darkestA Traders’ Playbook; Buying risk when its darkest Equities continue to find few friends and reviewing so many of the daily and weekly set-ups in our core equity indices, standing in front of the move and countering seems a low probability outcome at this juncture. The China CN50 and AUS200 look particularly weak, while EU equity markets are in steep decline, with price breaking level after level. In the US, the NAS100 sits on a huge support zone seen between 14,560 and 14,430, with the US500 eyeing the 4 Oct swing low at 4200 – if these levels are broken this week and SPX 20-day realised volatility rises further, then market chatter will centre on the S&P500 pushing towards 4000. The contrarians have started to look at sentiment and throw out a range of charts, including deteriorating market breadth and the number of stocks (in an index) below the 20-, 50- or 200-day moving average, that have an RSI below 30, or resides at 4-week lows. On current standings we’re not yet near a point of maximum bearishness. The CNN Fear and Greed can do a good job capturing the mood across markets and this says a similar message. The time for contrarianism is approaching – and who doesn’t love a tradeable V-bottom – but it isn’t now. Maybe corporate earnings can have a more positive effect and stabilise sentiment. With 47% of the S&P 500 market cap reporting this week, this is the week it could happen, and guidance and outlooks from CEOs can play a more important role. The macro matters though, and we continue to focus on geopolitical headlines, moves in the US 10- and 30-year Treasury, volatility, and energy markets. With bonds offering no defence in the portfolio, traders continue to manage drawdown risk through volatility, gold, and the CHF as the preeminent hedges. The USD hasn’t performed as well as some had hoped through this period of equity drawdown and rise in long-end bond yields. One factor is that we’re seeing a rise in EU and Chinese growth momentum, so the rest of the world is looking less bad. We also regress and understand that the CHF acts more like gold in times of geopolitical tensions, and after a 7.8% rally between July and October (in the DXY), consolidation in the USD index was always a possibility. Keep an eye on USDCNH and USDJPY as a guide, and the fact we see both pairs in a sideways consolidation is keeping broad G10 FX volatility subdued and a factor keeping the USD from moving freely on a broad FX basis. As many try and pick a turn in equity markets, a bounce in risk this week can't be ruled out, and we need to be open-minded to all possibilities – its fighting an evolving momentum though and many will prefer to initiative (or add) shorts into any rallies, rather than fight it. Buying risk when it's darkest and sentiment is rock bottom is a well-adopted market philosophy but I’m not sure we’re there just yet. Marquee data points for next week: • EU manufacturing/services PMI (24 Oct 19:00) – the market consensus is we see the diffusion index print 43.6 (from 43.4 in September) and the services index at 48.6 (from 48.7) • UK manufacturing/services PMI (24 Oct 19:30) -– the market consensus is we see the diffusion index print 44.6 (from 44.3 in September) and services at 49.3 (unchanged 49.3). A better services print could see a big reaction in GBP given how short the market has got. • Australia Q3 CPI (25 Oct 11:30 AEDT) – the consensus sees headline CPI at 5.3% yoy (from 6%) / core CPI at 5.0% yoy (5.9%). The Aussie interest rates markets price a hike on 7 Nov at 34% - so, if we get a CPI print above 5.4%, we could see the market pricing a hike at the November RBA meeting at or above 50%. AUDNZD has been the best expression for AUD bulls but is coming into a supply zone around 1.0850. • US S&P manufacturing/services PMI (25 Oct 00:45 AEDT) – a data point the market could completely ignore or could be the trigger for a sizeable reaction – the consensus is we see manufacturing at 49.9 (from 49.8) and services at 49.9 (50.1). • BoC meeting Canada (26 Oct 01:00 AEDT) – the swaps market ascribes very little chance of a hike at this meeting, and only 6bp of hikes through to March 2024 – if the tone of the statement suggests a greater risk of hikes in the future, then the CAD should rally. • ECB meeting (26 Oct 23:15 AEDT) – the ECB won’t hike at this meeting, so the focus falls on their guidance on the economic outlook and hurdle for hikes in the future. There will also be a focus on the bank’s plans to increase QT, and even look at the timeline on sales from APP and PEPP bond purchase program – if this is brought forward from Jan 2025 the market would see this EUR positive. • US Core PCE inflation (27 Oct 23:30 AEDT) – US headline PCE inflation is eyed at 3.4% (from 3.5%) and core 3.7% (3.9%) – it would have to be a big number to put a hike at the Dec FOMC meeting on the table – a November hike is not up for debate and the market sees a hold as a full-gone conclusion. • Chile central bank meeting (27 Oct 08:00 AEDT) – The market looks for a 50bp rate cut, but there are risks for 75bp – can USDCLP print new cycle highs? Central bank speakers: Fed speakers – Powell (26 Oct 07:35 AEDT – unlikely to offer any new market intel). Waller (27 Oct 00:00 AEDT) and Barr BoE speakers – Cuncliffe (27 Oct 03:45) RBA speakers – Gov Bullock (24 Oct 19:00 AEDT) & Bullock and Kent both appearing at the Senate testimony (26 Oct 09:00 AEDT) Marquee US earnings and the implied move on the day of earnings (derived from options pricing) – on the week we see 43% of the S&P500 market cap reporting. Marquee names include - Alphabet (4.8%), Microsoft (4.1%), IBM (2.7%), Meta (8.6%), Amazon (6.4%), Intel (6.6%), Exxon (2.4%)
