sideways markets only occur in Wave 4 or Wave B of a sequence. these are most often fit into triangle patterns. Such patterns are always penultimate wave meaning that the next one inthe direction of trend is the ultimate wave of the sequence. Then the Trend ends and a new begins in the opposite direction.
So far, we are not in a bear market. A bear market is only confirmed when people give up on stocks. Until then, it isn't a bear market, just a correction.
buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuulsh*t! People only give up on stocks waaaaay deep into a BEAR. We are at the very early stages of a developing BEAR. YOU don't even have the CNBC defintion correctly understood. Their definition is 20%. And the S&P did hit this even though recovery thereafter. A BEAR by CNBC defintion was registered ther eis no denying that! And FYI, pls restudy BASICS ................... A lower low/ lower high on Daily timeframe is the first inkling that a reversal is underway. Then the application of dow theory confirms whether it is indeed or not. This is regardless the use of Trendlines or indicators, its is from pure Price action, the ral thing. Dow theory has stood the test of time. See example below on SPX Dow Theory confirmed the BEAR on 2/22/22 when the closing ow was taken out. But Dow theory then went on to double-confirm the BEAR because the rally was exceeded and then from 3/28/22 high it took out the closing low of 3/8/22 Boom! BEAR confirmed. Now apply the same concept to DJI, DJT & Nasdaq Comp & for added comfort throw in NYA, & Dow Jones Composite & S&P 1500 composite. Same screaming result!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEAR of epic proportions underway!!!! http://tos.mx/aOD79a9
Thread title is strongly built into the "stupidity factor of HERD sentiment" Without this the adage below would be false The whole purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many men as possible" There must therefore be by defintion a majority of participants who are always calling for a bottom becasue they must therefore get sucked in to buy buy buy buy so that the next downwave has its work cut out for it in sending all these clowns to their death. That's just the say it is. Its been this way since time immemorial and always will be so. We never learn we repeat the same mistakes over and over every 70 years or so. Warren saw this 70 year factor and uses it wisely. Kudos to Warren. Warren also takes exact change from his wife every morning on his way to work to stop by the drive thru' at Mcdonald's to buy his egg mcmuffin. Exact change. I believe $3.66. This is a Man of considerable import.
Sorry clubber, its not personal, actually like you and hope to fire you up to get better, right now you are too much a softie and will perish for sure with your hindsight bias.. Get the estrogen out of your system, clubber See posts #4 by Clubber Lang and all the posts by Nine_Ender. Two Class A lost souls with no middle-legs. Shocking! https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/the-s-p-will-top-at-4540-4601.361256/ Clubber said: There is no top with the Fed in charge.

Wake up Clubber Lang, you're comparing the FED to Goliath in a BEAR when a BEAR a 2 degrees of trend shows up? Powell = human ................ BEAR = higher reality in the demon circuits of the mind... You call that a contest, Clubber? wake up Clubber. FED alway always always always always follows the 90-day Bond yield. It is powerless to go against the free market and always gives in. TA 101. See chart for the last 30 years for cryin out loud. FED always follows 90-day
For Clubber Lang ................ 90-day T-Bond Yield going up against the FED Funds Rate in real life combat: A mere mortal named david aka 90-day T-Baond yiels ( the true king of kings) takes on goliath aka FED. The crowd knew it was hopeless like Clubber Lang knew the FED is god. But few of us who know the real truth, the only things that counts is that the real true king, the ral majestic majesty is the 90-day T-Bond yield - we put our money on this besting the fake king known as FED. Behold David (90-day T-bond yield) versus Goliath (FED)
Count on it, Man. Its your opportunity to make a fortune over the next 3 years. Its going to be down down down with violent bursts to the north in bear market rallies. The way to profit is going to require considerable skill because you do not want to be a buy and hold clown in this case a sell and hold clown and live thru' all the bear market rallies that can tear you a new one. You gots to take short profits at or near each wave low and then either go to sidelines and wait for next short or go Long to profit in both direction but your timing better be real damn good because when the bear rally ends its a YUGE drop in the first several seconds of reversal. You gots to jump in on the aborning short at or near 38.2% - 50% bear rally retracement. these figures are cast in stone and have stood the test of immemorable time. Best of luck to all ET traders. May everyone flourish and prosper in this ongoing BEAR market, epic at 2 degrees of Trend, the greatest BEAR in all of American and British History all the way back to years 1720 and gong back evdn more into antediluvian times aka biblical times. there's never been anything like it, EVER think of earning 20% on a beach of your choice for the rest of your life after you've navigated this BEAR like a true warrior. Hindsight is for the birds and p***ies.
Earn 20% on your BEAR market winnings and live here in Goa for the rest of your life and lafff all the way to the bank at 80 rupees and soon to go to 140 rupees to the dollar as King dollar kills all underdevelped countries ...........
