WILL THIS ECHO FROM THE PAST HAUNT THE S&P 500?
The S&P 500 index .SPX has rallied five-straight weeks and with this stands up about 21% year-to-date.
Meanwhile, traders who utilize time-based methodologies are on alert, given that this week marks a milestone utilizing a Fibonacci-based time projection from the 2022 bear-market trough:
The 2022 bear market took 40 weekly bars to play out. This week will mark the 105th weekly bar since that low, or 2.618x that bear-market's duration.
Of note, since the market's October 2022 trough, and using equality and trend-based Fib time projections, the SPX has seen some spooky turns around the weeks that suggested the potential for a reversal of its most recent trend.
Indeed, the index put in a high in January 2023, just one weekly bar after the 0.382 time projection. It then sold off as much as 9.2% into its March 2023 low.
In early April 2023, from the 0.618 time projection, the SPX essentially turned sideways for five weeks, before ultimately resuming its advance, with a more than 10% rally into its July 2023 high.
That July 2023 high occurred one weekly bar after the 1.0 time projection. The SPX then sold off as much as 10.9% into its October 2023 low.
That October 2023 trough came one weekly bar ahead of the 1.382 time projection. The SPX surged as much as 17% into its December 2023 high.
The quick, more than 2%, sell-off into early January of this year bottomed one weekly bar ahead of the 1.618 time projection. The SPX jumped more than 12% into its mid-March high.
The near-6% decline into April bottomed one week before the 2.0 time projection. The SPX advanced more than 14% off its April low into its July peak.
From the July high, the benchmark index slid as much as 9.7% before bottoming in the week that marked the 2.382 time projection.
Given that the market has now advanced into the 2.618 weekly projection, it now remains to be seen if the echo off the October 2022 bear-market trough still resonates and a high of some significance will form around this time.
In any event, after this week, the next trend-based Fib time projection off the 2022 trough occurs at the 3.0 mark in late January.
