Proceeding towards the end of the rally.


The down sloping trendlines are inhibiting further gains. The bullish phase should end as we turn into April.

Market Status, short and long term views.


The shorter term charts show the $SPX RIGHT UP AGAINST STRONG RESISTANCE:
With another trendline (brown) just above the one in play now:
The Big Picture shows a longer term trendline (green) coming down from the 2015 high, at about 2063. I doubt we'll ever reach that.
All of this sets us up for a crash in the late May, early June, time frame.

The correction in the $SPX _may_ be nearly over..


It should reach down to the green trendline tomorrow. I'm thinking that will be the end of the Bear, for now.
Should the correction decide to go deeper. there is another line (brown in this chart) that could satisfy the Bear.

Anatomy of a crash - 2008. Steep declines and crashes are often initiated by the overlap of Fibonacci time ratios.


The exponential markers I use, derived from fib ratios, warn of severe declines following a top when they overlap from more than one study..
Similar situation will occur around the 8th to the 10th of June of this year. Not expecting a 'crash' but a steep decline, nonetheless.

Price forecast for $SPX out to early April


Now that we have some data on this move out of the February 11th bottom, we can see which exponential trendline is being followed (the green one). I have extended that trendline out to where I believe it runs out of gas, ideally, on or about April 4th. Looks like it reaches about 2050 or so.
When you plot this as a LEVEL, you can see that puts you just 62% higher than we are now. That implies a lot of volatility with not much progress for several weeks, certainly what you might expect of a weakening market, getting ready for a very bad summer and fall.

The fellow who does the Youtube videos called 'Realist News' just asked an interesting question. He asked if the 80:1 ratio of the price of gold to that of silver, is about to change.


One can never be sure of these things, but there IS a wedge forming in the chart pattern of that ratio. It looks like this:
Best I can say, is that wedges sometimes fail as they get about 2/3's along. This type of wedge often fails 'up' rather than down, but I think that's unlikely here. It might fail by the end of the year. That would also be a sign of a weakening financial system, which we all know is going to happen anyway.
