Eventful day, report of potential France-Germany agreement on a euro 2Tr expansion of the rescue fund.The top tracking counts discussed in Retrace or Breakout (10/14/11) remain intact. Chart 1 refreshes these counts on the 60-min frame. SPX finally broke above the multi-week/month resistance (pink line). We'll find out if it sticks soon. Currently, there's some negative divergence on the 60-min frame.
The very near term tracking counts are also tracking (Chart 2). It's interesting to note that ES, RUT and MIDcap did not make a higher high today. We'll find out if it will soon.
On the squiggle level (Chart 3), we probably have a truncated small-degree 5th, which serves as
(a) the end of an impulse from today's low
(b) end of wave (iii) from today's low
(c) end of a zigzag from today's low with a potential triangle connecting wave.
