The coming week of Aug. 24, 2018, sets up trending pivot math in the Japanese yen, a potential rangebound pivot breakout higher in soybeans, and bulls entering many markets. The S&P 500 appears near highs for next week, but the monthly Camarilla pivot at the 2,867 level seems to make sense to me, so I projected next week’s new high at 2,865 or higher.

The Eurodollar, as I mentioned in my weekly ranges article, has already made 5 down waves in a zig-zag formation/configuration. It has already gone, “down-up-down-up-down” off the monthly chart and is hovering over the daily 1,000-moving average and weekly 200-moving average, in addition to Gann support levels.

The coming week of Aug. 13, 2018, sets up trending pivot math concurrent with narrow ranges (means breakouts) in the S&P 500 (countertrend bounce & maybe down), Japanese yen, Crude oil, and gold (extreme narrow range block/rectangle on daily chart). The Eurodollar has already made 5 easily-countable down-waves (Monthly chart) since the swing top I identified in advance months ago, and it has sideways pivots for this week but extreme trending monthly pivots into Sept.

The S&P 500 is painting too many short side indicators near here to ignore the idea of a weeklys options short call spread 2855/2850 strikes, using under $500.00. The market internals collapsed at lunch, while the indices formed sell-signal candlesticks on many time frames. Prices are beyond my projected highs of the week, and sideways pivots for the month and week are present.

The week of Aug. 6 presents the start of a massive crude oil price move. It also offers weekly and monthly trending pivots in the Japanese yen, near weekly-chart lows. The Eurodollar has higher monthly pivots overlapping last month’s pivots, forming a range break setup in trending pivot math for the next four weeks and on the monthly camarilla low-reversal pivots. Additional Euro supports include the monthly 20-period and 50-period moving averages.

The week of July 30 presents breakout traders gold, Eurodollar and crude oil setups. All three are in narrow ranges on multiple time frames with inside-range pivots, compared to this week. Monthly pivots are also inside-range on the Eurodollar and crude oil, making this a time-pivots breakout as well. If one considers the last 10 days’ range as a time series, then half of its length could be rotated upwards/downwards in the price axis (use your finger’s distal phalanx for past 5-6 days and rotate 90-degrees up/down) to give a $71.00/barrel or $66.00/barrel target as a rough estimate that may seem today like a crazy place for price to be.

The S&P 500 -- as of 1:45 p.m. Central on Tuesday, July 24, and subject to change before close -- offers daily-chart traders a miniature crash or microcosmic test of a throwback down signal. If the major swing top is near and forming slowly, as mentioned in another Jeff Greenblatt’s work today (and all of Jeff Greenblatt’s books I have read; it is an honor to write anything where he writes), then some minor down-thrust market tests could easily precede a larger drop.

The week of July 23 will likely continue the “low-reversals-consolidations” theme of the prior week (July 16-20). The swing low of gold is in/here, in my opinion (see chart grid below). Do not initiate gold short side positions. Soybeans with a bearish daily & bullish weekly chart and Bitcoin with a 3-Day & Daily Chart sell signal may be the exceptions. Anyone ready to try and catch a falling safe or learn how? Now, it’s a savage sober rave party! This is some serious technical analysis regarding how to identify reversals and invert charts (as in upside down).

The coming week, starting Monday, July 16, should present more sideways markets than breakouts, although gold and the Eurodollar currently (as of Friday morning on July 13) have pivots with breakout lower setups. Of course, the Eurodollar extreme candle reversal up signal and the gold moving average supports on multiple time frames with bullish candlestick patterns can cause a lower-pivots rejection in each/either symbol. Such a rejection would be bullishly volatile, whilst various groups of traders would, in theory, battle it out.
