With the DJIA making gains so far this month, the Jan. 18 issue of Elliott Wave International's Monday-Wednesday-Friday Short Term Update takes a look at market sentiment: 

"...the S&P spiked above an internal trendline that started at the March 2011 low, which has excited traders. The CBOE equity put/call ratio dropped to .55, which means that there was nearly twice as much volume flowing into bets on calls (a continued rising market) than on puts (a falling market).
 
"Last Friday, January 13, the total composite CBOE put/call ratio dropped to its lowest close since July 19, two days prior to another second wave top. ... The market dropped 17% over the following three weeks."
 
You can see The Short Term Update's chart "Optimism Bursts Out. SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust," along with editor Steve Hochberg's full analysis of:
 
  • CBOE put/call ratios,
  • NYSE breadth,
  • NYSE volume,
  • the latest Elliott wave pattern interpretations,
  • and much more
online now, in the January 18 Short Term Update. (Also, stay tuned for the next issue, due out Friday evening, January 20.)

Learn the Why, What and How of Elliott Wave Analysis

Financial media use news and economic events to explain market moves. Steer clear of this misguided approach. Take part in the Elliott Wave Crash Course to learn what really moves the markets.


The Elliott Wave Principle is a detailed description of how financial markets behave. The description reveals that mass psychology swings from pessimism to optimism and back in a natural sequence, creating specific Elliott wave patterns in price movements. Each pattern has implications regarding the position of the market within its overall progression, past, present and future. The purpose of Elliott Wave International’s market-oriented publications is to outline the progress of markets in terms of the Wave Principle and to educate interested parties in the successful application of the Wave Principle. While a course of conduct regarding investments can be formulated from such application of the Wave Principle, at no time will Elliott Wave International make specific recommendations for any specific person, and at no time may a reader, caller or viewer be justified in inferring that any such advice is intended. Investing carries risk of losses, and trading futures or options is especially risky because these instruments are highly leveraged, and traders can lose more than their initial margin funds. Information provided by Elliott Wave International is expressed in good faith, but it is not guaranteed. The market service that never makes mistakes does not exist. Long-term success trading or investing in the markets demands recognition of the fact that error and uncertainty are part of any effort to assess future probabilities. Please ask your broker or your advisor to explain all risks to you before making any trading and investing decisions.
