Intermediate wave (3) is currently in progress and also subdivided as 5 waves where Minor wave 1 ended at 6866.94. Minor wave 2 bounce is in play to correct cycle from 3/12/2018 high (7256.33) towards 7099.69 – 7208.97 before the decline resumes. While bounces stay below 7256.33 in the first degree, expect sellers to appear at 7099.69 – 7208.97 and bring the Index lower to resume the Intermediate wave (3) decline. We don’t like buying the Index.
