It is hard to judge what's going on at this moment. My reading on 10/22 is not a good one. I thought it was a double bottom which may result in a rebound. Unfortunately, market went down, with no obvious reason. Now we have 2 scenario.
1) The Pattern I pointed out in 10/11 post is still in play. SPX may find support in sub-1400 level, then rebound to 1450 level 1 more time.
2) The pattern was completed on 10/12 because the rebound to SPX 1465 then reverse down was too big to be considered as a sub-movement.
I think the bottom line is we are bottoming. Sub-1400 level is a much better support. As I pointed out at Dino's, if no more selling pressure, ES will do some mild recovery since Friday afternoon. Actually, ES made another double bottom at 1393-1394 level during Monday global session, which roughly equals to 1398-1399 SPX.
I expect a revisit of the overhead trend line which is declining, then we crash into the year end.

Market Reading 10/22/2012
Did I say I m going to make a new post? Me getting lazy
recently. As I mentioned in my intraday charts, I see somebody defending the
1416 low.
If you study the volume profile on the right and the better volume on the bottom, you will see lots of buying climax up.
So far I read the tape as retest then regain support at ES 1416.
On SPX it is slightly different, because last 1416 was after regular trading
hour. On that day, SPX low was at 1425 then closed at 1428. Today we touched
1420 then rebound to 1433. I don’t know how to interpret the difference. I tend
to ignore SPX which is the cash index, but follow ES which is the SPX futures
traded clock around.
It is an Adam-Adam double bottom pattern. I expect a rally in the next couple days. My plan is to trade to the trend line. I add longs when I cut the chart above.
How high can SPX go? According
to Bulkowski’s book, calculated target is around 1490ish. My own measurement is
1470s. The reason is the last spike is too big, unreasonably big. Can it go higher? Can it take out the 1475 peak? Yes maybe. In this dumb bull market, anything could happen. I still feel we are close to the end of the dumb rally from 2009. End of 2012 will be messy even if it is not the end of the world. :D

couple interesting charts
all from internet.
According to this chart, equity used to peak in late September during election year. so far we are not far off this year. Let's how it goes this time.
Below is the daily chart for Nasdaq which usually is a leading indicator. It is pretty self-explanatory.

me is back
I am back into normal which is not as exciting as I expect. :D
As I said 100 times, the market is full of government manipulation. I don't see any real improvement worldwide. THEY are busy painting here, covering there. Between jobs, the market may drop a little. Here is a moment.
On weekly scale, the rally we are currently in started last Oct. We experienced 2 major corrections. Both of them are close to 61.8%. If we correct 61.8% this time, it may be in 1350s.
Daily chart is in trouble as well. The current support is around 1420-1430 area, defined by last high of 1420 and last retracement of 1430. Fork and channel and MA all park at the same area.
Here is my projection based on hourly chart. We will lose the support and test sub 1400 level which is the real thing. Then in early Nov, they will push it higher to maybe 1450s. After all the hyper is gone, it's time to do gravity check.
