Monthly Commentary June 1st 2006
We are now working on the assumption that Wave A of the correction started
on 5/8/6 at 1324 and finished at 1256 on 5/23/6.
Therefore we are still in our short positions from 5/15/6 and 5/17/6. Current Wave
B terminus estimate is a close above 1283 between 6/5/6 and 6/19/6 so this
is where our current stop is. A close below 1255 would signal a change in the main trend on the monthly
chart to down (and would mean we are actually in Wave 3 of a 5 wave trend, rather than Wave C
of a 3 wave correction).
Yearly Commentary June 1st 2006
On the yearly chart we are still long on 5/8/6 with
a price target of 1388 and an initial trailing stop at 1233. A close below 1233
would indicate a change of the main trend on the yearly chart to down and would indicate we were in Wave
1 of a 5 wave down trend rather than Wave A of a 3 wave correction.
