The pic gives a bird's eye view of the year relative to the S&R's. This is the weekly chart.
I don't want to take up a lot of room in Sudoku's thread for all the details. Nevertheless, it was very clear at the year's beginning that it was going to be a strong bearish year for the market. It was in April that somewhere in this forum I said the market was headed to the 4600's. Strong monthly and weekly channels suggested that, and the break of the key 5230 area had sent this market on its way. The projection was based as a confluence with allowing for a spike on the other side of the 23.6% level of the YS2>YS3. It is always too much to ask for a 3 to ever be hit.
As it turned out, the 38.2% of YS2>YS3 was hit and the price settled in the 4600's. (BTW, flip the Fibos. I drew them upside down.)
Markets are very easy to forecast when there are one-way implications.
For this year, it is not quite as easy, because it is a matter of time when the LT DOWN's cycle is going to run out and it gets tired. The one rule is there will usually be a 3-spot move in any TF. That did not happen in 2011, as it was all one-way (south). This year, we know the DOWN will continue, but we know it is not as strongly obviated. We know, most likely a 1 and a polar 2 will be hit this year. That virtually puts the WS1 and the WR1, at 4158 and 5089 respectively, on the radar.
