SPY - Possible ST caution signs

Above is the daily XIV which is above it's upper band today.
Usually it needs time to get back into the bands at lower prices.

The three charts above are the SPY 240min, daily and weekly charts.  Today each has completed a "minimum" of 5 Elliott Waves.  This, if the wave does not change, is usually a heads up for some kind of counter trend move.  The time frame is not known until it starts to happen.  This is NOT guaranteed, as Elliott Waves are not fully confirmed until it is history.  That is why it is only raising a caution flag at this time.

Note that the months of August and September, in the past, have been weak months for the stock market.

Also note that several posts on this blog have indicated a "probable" rise into the year end due to the strong breadth seen in February and June along with some other factors.
So, at this time, it is likely that any pullbacks may become buying opportunities, but, not to be invested in blindly.  This stock market is eight years old and there are many indications that a top is in the making going back to late 2014.
