The chart is key to this analysis.

From our last update,

The rally from 450.00 (78.6%) hit the short term target of 489.00, with this being a 61.8% retracement, this will be the key level for the next week and we will be looking for a move back to 61.8% the other way based on the ONE44 61.8% rule. We will be watching all the retracements on any setback to see if the short term trend remains positive and the idea of a summer rally possible. 
 

Use 489.00 as the swing point for the week.

Below it, look for it to go 61.8% back to the 3/28/25 low at 460.00 based on the ONE44 61.8% rule. The longer term target is.....

Per the ONE44 61.8% rule,

Short version,

Whenever the market holds 61.8% of a move, look for it to go 61.8% of where it just came from. This usually happens when a market is directionless, or in a consolidation period.

As you can see on the chart on 4/11/25 it hit 61.8% at 489.00, using the rule above the target was 61.8% the other way and this was 460.00 and that was completed on 4/29/25. Using the same 61.8% rule, we will now be looking for 61.8% back up at 480.00. Also on the chart the 2/19/25 high hit 61.8% at 512.00 and that sent to 61.8% the other way on 3/4/25 at 454.00.


 

Use 460.00 as the swing point for the week.

Above it, the short term target is 61.8% at 480.00 and the long term target is the 504.75 major Gann square.

Below it, look for 78.6% at 453.00, a failure to turn up from here can send it to 78.6% of the 8/26/24 low and 2/19/25 high at 437.00.
