<![CDATA[Last December, in our firm's first article at Minyanville, we presented the bearish scenario we were forecasting for copper. A few months later, when prices seemed on the verge of breaking downward out of their consolidation range, our firm posted an update confirming that the market was behaving as expected, and offering some preliminary price targets. We mention the previous articles here, because we believe they are helpful in showing the reader how a trade develops, as well as the distinction between the time when a potential trade is first identified and the time when an entry becomes more favorable. ]]>

<![CDATA[The short-term bearish path that our firm forecast on March 1 as the most likely scenario for gold appears to be playing out. However, that does not mean we think the decline will extend a great deal farther. In fact, the majority of the decline is probably already over. There might still be a trade to the down side, but that trade probably will be heading into a long-term low. Even so, the chance to begin an enduring bounce and rally is likely weeks or months away. Our analysis suggests that gold needs, at a minimum, another lower low before ]]>

In the previous post we identified resistance areas and a possible turning point in the Global Dow Index (INDEXDJX:GDOW). Now we turn to regional indexes, beginning with the Euro Stoxx 50 Index (INDEXSTOXX:SX5E).
 
The Euro Stoxx 50 Index includes 50 blue-chip stocks from 12 eurozone countries. It serves as the underlying for a variety of futures and options contracts, as well as exchange traded funds such as the SPDR Euro Stoxx ]]>

Are there regional stock markets outside the US that are likely to hold up better? This month, we present a series of articles examining some of the most-watched equity indices globally, and we apply the combination of Elliott Wave and other technical analysis methods that readers here are familiar with.

<![CDATA[In late January, our firm mentioned that Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) appeared to be finishing the first portion of its downward correction from the November 2012 high, and we showed why price should try to find support in the region between 405 and 445. Last week, Apple found support just above the ideal 415 level, and it is possible that the first downward slide is now finished. From here, we expect several months of corrective price action, which should take the stock in a net upward direction. The nature of the corrective pattern throughout the rest of the year may provide clues ]]>

<![CDATA[In December 2012, we presented a bearish scenario for copper based on classic Elliott Wave analysis. Also, because copper is a bellwether for economic activity generally, we suggested that lower prices for copper might forecast a slowing of the global economy and a decline in stock markets. That outcome would be consistent with our view that most Western stock indices appear to be completing top formations.
 
Now, three months after our initial article, copper could be on the verge of confirming (or invalidating) our suggestion that it has been tracing a bearish triangle formation since mid-2011. Below, we describe the ]]>

<![CDATA[In late January, we mentioned that we were watching gold to see whether price could break through overhead resistance represented by a channel line and also the specific Fibonacci-derived level of 1730.50. Breaking through would have favored a near-term bullish view. However, since that time, price has fallen away from the channel line and is on the verge of making a fresh low on a weekly timeframe. This makes one of the near-term bullish counts less likely, although it cannot yet be ruled out. Of the other two prominent counts, one is near-term bullish, and the other would call for ]]>

<![CDATA[Charting the Dollar Index is useful for several reasons. First, there is a futures contract that&#39;s tied to the index. Beyond that, understanding what the dollar is doing assists in identifying trading opportunities in other currencies such as the euro, and it aids in forecasting the broad direction of equity markets.
 
Right now, the Dollar Index is at an area of likely support. At the very least, it is near an important decision area. On the monthly time frame, the dollar is testing what might become the lower boundary of a developing channel. In addition, the dominant 49-week price cycle ]]>

<![CDATA[We have been watching Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) closely in recent weeks. In the wake of the company&#39;s strong reaction to Wednesday's earnings report, here are some signals and areas to watch as support and, if there&#39;s a bounce, as overhead resistance.
 
Our working Elliott wave count has had AAPL tracing out a 4th wave, or perhaps the first part of a 4th wave. However, price has recently poked below the channel boundary on a monthly timeframe, as shown in the first chart, and it has moved below the initial support range of 463-473 that we had identified.

<![CDATA[Last April, amid pessimistic news reports, we wrote that opportunities might be emerging to go long in Spanish equities. We mentioned that the Dow Jones Spain Titans 30 Index (INDEXDJX:ES30) would probably complete two more small moves, up and down, and then would attempt a larger bounce. That was an example of using Elliott wave analysis to identify the requirements for a completed pattern prior to a turn. The pattern completed, and the bounce occurred basically as we said it would.
