In my 5/18 public post (The public blog is updated only once a month.

I was looking for a 5/18L as the cash SPX Apex of the triangle CIT (Change in Trend) along with the 19 TD Cycle of Lows pinpointed the 5/18 Cycle Low (see chart below).

From the Raj T&C Daily Email: “We should rally into 5/25H, decline into 5/30L at the 5/30 Geo time CIT and then rally into higher Highs into 6/1-2H, all +/-1 day”
Actual: We saw a 5/25H, decline into 5/31L, 1 day later than the 5/30 Geo CIT and we are now rallying into a 6/1-2 Time & Cycle cluster.

The Emini SP Apex of triangle CIT, along with the Emini 48 TD and Cash SPX 47 TD Cyclethat last saw the 3/27/16 swing Low, are next due on 6/2+/-, one day from 6/1 Solar time CIT and one day from Monday’s 6/5 Geometric time CIT.

Whats’ Next: The Apex CIT and 47-48 TD Cycles suggests a 6/1-2H while the Timing suggets a 6/1 Solar time CIT or 6/5 Geo time CIT+/-1 High, so we should see a 6/2-5 +/-1 Time & Cycle cluster High. If we see a sharp decline afterwards, then the odds increase 6/2-5 was a major High, but if the decline is mild, we could see higher Highs later in June, before the Flash Crash decline into July.
