What is an S&P 500 (SPX) forecast?

You can view the main SPX forecasts page for more details.

How often are forecasts sent?

Forecasts are sent at the beginning of each week and cover the period of 7 days from Wednesday to the following Tuesday inclusive.

Are these buy or sell signals?

The forecasts identify potential reversal timing dates. Traders should interpret these dates alongside their own technical analysis, market structure review, support and resistance levels, and risk management.

What is a reversal date?

A forecasted reversal date is where historical cycle conditions suggest the market is likely to encounter the conditions required for a change in direction to occur.

What are financial market cycles?

Cycles found in the S&P-500 (SPX) are recurring time periods that influence market sentiment, price movement and reversal points.

Cycle analysis studies historical market behaviour to identify periods where similar timing indicators have previously aligned with market turning points.

How are cycles used in the forecasts?

Cycles are used to identify dates where the conditions for a reversal to occur are present. Cycleforecasts studies time cycles, price cycles, historical data points, reversal dates, and support and resistance timing areas. When time and price cycles align near important market levels, the setup becomes more technically significant.

What is the role of WD Gann?

The research behind Cycleforecasts has been influenced by the work of WD Gann and other market analysts.

Gann’s work explored relationships between time, price, and market behaviour. Cycleforecasts applies independent research and historical data analysis to the SPX rather than simply copying one historical method. There is much information available on WD Ganns work.

Guide to market cycles

Cycleforecasts research that has been conducted over many years has resulted in a method to precisely determine market reversal dates. Many years of historical data is required for this analysis to be performed and the theories of past renowned market analyst’s have been drawn upon to achieve these results. The dates of minor and intermediate reversals are predictable as recent historical data is available. Major reversals require historical data often not reliably available or accurate. However, on some occasions specific cycles do have greater effects and are noted in our forecasts.

(1) A cycle calculated from an original impulse point will radiate, at quantifiable periods, points in time that will cause markets to encounter support and resistance.

(2) These points in time can be calculated using specific time calculation methods enabling precise dates to be known in advance when these times of support and resistance will occur.

(3) On occasions, data points relied upon in our analysis that are on a non trading day, and are not a valid data point, will result in an inaccurate result.

(4) As with interim data points occurring on non trading days so can the date predicted be for a non trading day. In these cases the market reaction will occur on the trading day before or after the predicted date, such as the Friday or Monday.

(5) Other markets containing similar components will often have the same reversal dates. This will also occur in indexes and their derivatives.

(6) The magnitude of a cycle’s effect can be influenced by the position of the market or its structure, and whether a cycle is compounding an existing trend or acting against the prevailing trend. Major reversals occur at Significant Time and Price alignments. Consecutive – opposing cycles cause volatility and unclear trend direction.

(7) Unexpected significant events can cause extreme market movements that can cause a cycle failure. These events will then become data points affecting future market movements.

(8) Our analysis is based on the SPX and the DJIA, however significant movements can occur in their derivatives during out of exchange hours crossing over to the following day thereby registering a reversal point on the following day.

(9) Cycles that are responsible for single day and multi day reversals can be accurately predicted. These are within the scope of this service and are ideal for short term trading opportunities. Typically there are 2-3 trend changes each week.

(10) There are specific cycles that commence and complete major trends of years in duration such as the 2023 Low originating from over 2000 years past. Reliable information and data is not available to accurately provide forecasts for these dates. However these cycles align with the minor cycles at times of major trend changes.
