Weekly Projection and Pre-market Analysis for 8/13/12

The monthly chart shows price thus far in August having made a higher low and higher high as price continues on the upside of the multi-year cycle.
  


The weekly chart shows price last week making a higher low and higher high as price continued on the upside of the multi-month cycle. We are near the level of the March high and overdue for a MM high to be seen; in fact, a MM low is projected for this week.
  



The daily chart shows price Friday making a lower low and finding soft support on the MD MA. Price today has opened above the daily pivot and made a higher high but is currently trading little-changed. Notice the white daily pivot points have been grouped in the same area the past four trading days; this indicates a loss of price momentum and common pivots often mark the termination of a move. We are extremely overdue for a MW high to be made, but price shows no signs yet of that high being in.




The hourly chart shows price making what appears to be a multi-day low on Friday an hour after the NY open and a 24Hr high an hour before the close. Price overnight Sunday put in a higher 24Hr low on MD MA support and price has bounced and eclipsed Friday's high. A 24Hr high is projected for several hours after the NY close, and we are currently in the timeframe to see a session cycle low.
  


A session cycle low due near the NY open and a 24Hr high due after the close is a combination that should make for a good day to trade from the long side. The frequency of half-span 24Hr cycle highs and lows and the extreme lengths of the current multi-month and multi-day cycles have me concerned enough that I am not married to the idea of long-only trading today, however.
