I doubt it will lead or follow significantly, they seem to be trading together -- sometimes crude leads, sometimes equities lead.PretzelLogichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613859771824863784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-947237681666122369.post-83224222348929095872011-11-13T12:56:55.636-10:002011-11-13T12:56:55.636-10:00Ray,

According to my data:<br /><br />Wave 3 is 10.43 <br /><br />Wave 5 is currently 10.23<br /><br />:)<br /><br />So it works under a standard arithmetic scale. That said...<br /><br />In my view, it should be done logarithmically. Wave 3 represents a 12.4% advance. So wave 5 would not be longer than wave 3 unless it tops 100.23 (wave 5 low of 89.17 * 112.4%).<br /><br />But either way, an extended fifth is certainly a reasonable interpretation here as well, and I have definitely considered it.<br /><br />TY for your input, and welcome!PretzelLogichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613859771824863784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-947237681666122369.post-37635292838356443062011-11-13T08:17:25.668-10:002011-11-13T08:17:25.668-10:00Blackjak,

Daneric says a downturn in oil may precede a downturn in equities. I disagree based off the May pattern.

If you consider the prior crash, equities started their bear in '07, yet (look at the above chart) crude kept rallying until summer '08.<br /><br />Anon, <br /><br />Thanks. I do periodic updates on gold. In my last gold update, I indicated I am still uncertain as to whether gold has put in a LT top or not (whether the recent high was the top of wave 3 or 5). That hasn't changed. I simply don't have enough time to publish everything I'd like to... I need a team of analysts at this point! :)PretzelLogichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613859771824863784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-947237681666122369.post-75468663103725106582011-11-12T09:09:55.987-10:002011-11-12T09:09:55.987-10:00check this out: http://www.firstpost.com/investing...check this out: http://www.firstpost.com/investing/crude-oil-prices-are-set-for-selloff-time-to-go-short-129488.htmlArniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540101332450928069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-947237681666122369.post-50937700868504555622011-11-12T05:25:21.594-10:002011-11-12T05:25:21.594-10:00Your work on the U.S. dollar, copper, and oil rece...Your work on the U.S. dollar, copper, and oil recently is excellent.

Certainly fits with my thesis that the world has overpriced pretty much everything the past twenty years or so. <br /><br />Are you of the general belief (meaning do the charts indicate) that commodities and materials will crash equally as much as asset pricing? For the 'great recession' (so far) commodity prices have not fallen nearly as much as real estate a securities.brianhuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13919393156588909718noreply@blogger.com
