Switching to the March E-Mini S&P makes clear that it is much closer to a potential major top than the December contract. The latter still has about 30 points of running room before it hits a 2299.00 target, and the stop-loss I’ve...
Although COMEX Gold offered no similar encouragement, March Silver’s rally on Monday was strongly impulsive, implying as it has that the futures are a decent bet to reach the 17.295 target within the next 2-3 days. Moreover, if buyers are...
Doc Copper has swung wildly since November’s moon shot and seems likely, on the visually evidence of the charts, to attempt another spectacular leap. Assuming the gyrations of the last three weeks have been a consolidation for a follow-...
The previous chart showed a rally target of moderate importance at 2250.00 derived from a low recorded on November 9. Here’s an alternative target at 2240.50 that comes from a larger pattern (see inset). There is yet one more target at...

The chart included with yesterday’s DJIA tout showed a big-picture pattern going back to early 2016 that projects to as high as 19727. This one, tracing back to early July, points to a somewhat less ambitious target at 19489. It is...
On Tuesday, the E-Mini S&Ps finally fell to a moderately bearish Hidden Pivot target that had been more than two months in coming. The fact that Wednesday’s bounce from this Hidden Pivot support was weak and lasted for less than a day...
The futures did everything we’d asked of them and more, generating a fresh bullish impulse leg on the hourly chart in the process. The next bullish benchmark lies at 18.940, equal to an ‘external’ peak recorded October 3 on the way down....
The chart below on display today returns us to a 2090.25 downside target that has been in play for five weeks. It still looks like a winner to me, even if it is taking forever to get there. Shorts entering at any point along the way would...
