    In Thursday's newsletter and again on Friday, I stated that the SPX 3613 low was NOT the bottom of the current decline since it was formed with 3 small waves off the SPX 3736 bounce.  Late Friday, that 3613 level was decisively broken and this structure has yet to complete.  From here, you could see a direct acceleration down (more forced selling) if bulls fail to step in during the first trading day of the month.  IF bulls are able to bounce then will be watching for a potential ending diagonal to complete the wave down that began from SPX 4119 in early September but more selling after such a rally is expected.

    Steve, if price accelerates down

    Steve, if price accelerates down immediately on Monday then it becomes impulsive to the downside and the ED is off the table right? 

    If it becomes impulsive then it may bust through all the divergences. That may trigger a waterfall decline. 

    This could be a really nasty three of three of three down. 

    Or.... This could only still just be a 1-2 which means even more bearish to the downside. Very interesting two weeks ahead of us. 

    Jobs numbers on Friday could be fireworks if numbers are strong. Based on jobless clsikes they may be strong 

    Correct...black swan type . Understand

    Correct...black swan type . Understand even if ED forms and rally follows that would be wave 4 then PLUNGE in Wave 5. So Monday we shall see what unfolds.  There is a cycle due and failed cycles lead to plunges (notice 3 weeks down and 1 week up bounces of late).  Let me repeat, best to respect the trend until evidence changes - remain flexible and monitor level to level.  Needless to say,  Bears are in control

    Steve, would this morning's action already negate an ED?

    Interesting on failed cycles.  Didn’t know that.  Thanks for sharing as to potential plunge.

    Chris Ciovaccio video is making comparisons to 2008 water fall decline which echoes your concern of accelerated selling.

    The analog would have a multiweek rally from here which would fail in a waterfall manner

    Its an almost identical match.

    I would make a chart of 2008 but Stockcharts took away the start\end date function in the period tab when they added  those other nonsensical  periods.  Seems like a regression not an improvement.
