3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures fell with increasing force through the session, approaching 7400after peaking earlier in the week at 7632.25.

Elliott Wave Theory. The decline is the strongest evidence so far that rising wave D{-5} may have ended and that declining wave E{-5} may have begun. The distance covered is still small compared with the full rise of wave D{-5}, which began on March 30 at 6353.25, and the price remains well above the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle. Even so, the speed and persistence of the decline make the question more urgent: Will the price turn back upward and challenge the 7630s and beyond, keeping D{-5} alive? Or will it continue lower, with each additional decline strengthening the argument that E{-5} is underway?

Decision Points. A recovery back toward the 7630s would keep rising wave D{-5} as the primary count. A continued decline would strengthen the case for declining wave E{-5}. The working confirmation remains a break back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle; until then, E{-5} is a serious possibility, but not yet the confirmed primary count.

9:35 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures began to fall hours before the Employment Situation Report was released, declining from 7578.75. Immediately after the report’s release, the price spiked briefly and then resumed the pre-existing decline, appr.

What does it mean? Elliott Wave Theory leaves the analysis unchanged. The decline is a warning sign, but it is not yet deep enough to say that rising wave D{-5} has ended. Rising wave D{-5} remains the primary count.

Decision Points. A sustained recovery would support the view that D{-5} remains underway. A continued decline would increase the warning that D{-5} may be ending, but the working confirmation remains a break back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle. Until that happens, declining wave E{-5} remains a possibility rather than the primary count.

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures continued to rise from the overnight low, 7524.50, and so far have reached the 7610s.

Elliott Wave Theory. The price remains below the peak of wave D{-5}, 7632.25, set on June 1. While the rise increases the likelihood that wave D{-5} is still underway, it still has not attained certainty. The alternative count remains that declining wave E{-5} has begun, although today’s rise has weakened that case for now.

Decision Points. A move above 7632.25 would confirm that rising wave D{-5} is still underway. A move below 7524.50 would return pressure to the downside, and a move below 7505.75 would strengthen the case that D{-5} has ended and E{-5} has begun. The stronger operational confirmation of E{-5} would remain a decline back below the upper boundary of the expanding triangle.

Chart. I’ve moved it to focus on the entirety of ongoing wave D{-5}. The red line is the upper boundary the parent wave 4{-4}, a downward correction that has taken the form of an Expanding Triangle.

9:45 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures followed yesterday’s decline with sideways movement in a narrow range, roughly from the 7550s down to the 7530s.

What does it mean? Elliott Wave Theory has moved into ambiguity: Is rising wave D{-5} still underway, or has falling wave E{-5} begun? Price remains above the prior low of 7505.75 on May 27, and the decline remains small compared with the full distance covered by D{-5} since it began on March 30.

Decision Points. A move above 7632.25 would confirm that rising wave D{-5} is still underway. A move below 7505.75 would strengthen the case that D{-5} has ended and E{-5} has begun, but the stronger operational confirmation would still be a decline back below the upper boundary of the expanding triangle. Until then, the market remains in the gray zone between a late-stage D{-5} pullback and the possible beginning of E{-5}.

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures continued the sideways fluctuation that has been underway since May 28. The range held mostly in the 7620s to 7590s, but during today’s session the futures broke lower into the 7560s before partially recovering.

Elliott Wave Theory. Rising wave D{-5} remains the primary count, as it has for more than two months. Today’s downside break is an early warning that wave D{-5} may be nearing or past its end, but it is not yet enough to confirm that falling wave E{-5} has begun.

Decision Points. A move above 7632.25 would confirm that wave D{-5} is still extending. A continued decline would increase the odds that wave E{-5} is underway, but the operational confirmation remains a break back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle.

9:35 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures overnight continued the sideways fluctuation that began on May 28. The movement included a brief push to a new high on June 1 at 7632.25, but the futures have made little significant progress since then. In practical terms, the market has produced nearly a week of motion, but not much direction.

What does it mean? Elliott Wave Theory treats the fluctuation as part of rising wave D{-5}, which began on March 30. Wave D{-5} is the penultimate subwave of wave 4{-4}, a correction that began in October 2025 and has taken the form of an Expanding Triangle.

Rising wave D{-5} will be followed by falling wave E{-5}. When wave E{-5} is complete, wave 4{-4} will also be complete, clearing the way for rising wave 5{-4}, which should carry the futures to significant new highs.

Decision Points. A move above 7632.25 would confirm that wave D{-5} is still extending. A decline below the recent sideways range would be an early warning that wave D{-5} may have ended, but the operational confirmation that wave E{-5} has begun remains a break back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle.

Charts. Above, a 6-hour bar chart showing the entirely of wave 4{-4} so far. Below, a 15-minute bar chart covering the sideways movements over the last four sessions and overnight movements,

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures rose to 7632, only 25 cents below Monday’s peak, and then declined into the 7610s.

Elliott Wave Theory. Rising wave D{-5} came within pennies of verification, but a near-breakout is not an actual breakout. The price tested the prior peak and failed the test, increasing the likelihood that Monday’s peak was the end of wave D{-5} and the beginning of declining wave E{-5}.

That remains a likelihood, not a certainty. I’ll retain the D{-5} label on the chart until the price verifies that wave D{-5} has ended.

Decision Points. A rise above 7632.25 will verify that wave D{-5} remains underway. A decline below 7576.25 will be an early warning that wave D{-5} may have ended. The operational confirmation that wave E{-5} has begun will come only with a break back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle.

9:35 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures fell slightly after Monday’s new peak and continued to decline overnight. The overnight low so far is 7576.25, still not a great distance from the peak, 7632.25.

What does it mean? Elliott Wave Theory continues to label rising wave D{-5} as still underway. Each further decline weakens that scenario, and a significant rise strengthens it. At this point, however, the pullback remains small compared with the full rise from the March 30 low of 6353.25.

If the price falls far enough to break back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle, then the working count will shift: Wave D{-5} will have ended, and downtrending wave E{-5} will be underway. Wave E{-5} is likely to fall into the 6250s and perhaps lower.

Wave E{-5} is the fifth and final wave of the parent wave 4{-4}, a downward correction that began in October 2025 and has taken the form of an Expanding Triangle, with ever higher highs and lower lows.

Decision Points. A rise above 7632.25 will confirm that wave D{-5} remains underway. A decline below 7576.25 will be an early warning that wave D{-5} may have ended, but not confirmation. The operational confirmation that wave E{-5} has begun will come only with a break back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle.

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures reached a low of 7576.25 and then reversed, pushing up to a new peak of 7632.25, only a few points above the early-session peak.

Elliott Wave Theory. The distance may be short, but the implication is large. Despite the drama of the day, upward wave D{-5} is still underway. As always at this stage, the new peak could be the end of wave D{-5} and the beginning of downward wave E{-5}. Or not. The ambiguity remains.

Decision Points. Wave D{-5} remains the primary count. The new high confirms that the rise is still alive, but it does not remove the late-wave warning. A decline back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle remains the operational confirmation that wave E{-5} has begun. Until then, reversals from new highs are warnings, not proof.

9:35 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures reached a new peak of 7623 after trading resumed overnight. It then reversed sharply, falling into the 7570s, as renewed U.S.–Iran military exchanges added to market uncertainty.

What does it mean? The Elliott Wave Theory analysis remains unchanged from where it has been for several months: Wave D{-5} is underway. It appears to be nearing its end. Each new peak has been followed by a reversal and decline, perhaps suggesting that the end has arrived. And yet, so far, each decline has reversed back to the upside and produced another new peak.

This time? No idea.

Wave D{-5}, which began on March 30, is the next-to-the-last subwave of wave 4{-4}, a downward corrective wave that has taken the form of an Expanding Triangle.

A common way in Elliott Wave Theory to estimate where a triangle may reverse is to draw boundary lines: one connecting the start of wave A with the start of wave C, and another connecting the end of wave A with the end of wave C. Those lines form the upper and lower boundaries of the triangle, although the boundaries are not always honored. The present wave D{-5} has overshot the upper boundary by a significant distance.

On the chart below, I have drawn the boundaries in red. Note that the farther into the future a boundary extends, the farther it moves in its direction: higher for the upper boundary and lower for the lower boundary.

Wave D{-5} will be followed by declining wave E{-5}, which should reach toward the lower boundary and may move beyond it, just as wave D{-5} has moved beyond the upper boundary.

The end of wave E{-5}, months in the future, will also be the end of wave 4{-4} and the beginning of uptrending wave 5{-5}. That wave is likely to rise above the end of wave D{-5}, perhaps significantly so. Sometimes, however, a 5th wave will fall short, a condition known as truncation. We will not know whether wave 5{-5} is truncated until the chart itself gives the answer.

Decision Points. Rising wave D{-5} remains the primary count until the price produces a decline large enough to matter at the D/E degree. The operational confirmation that wave E{-5} has begun would be a fall back below the red upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle. Until then, the overnight reversal is an important warning, but not yet proof that wave D{-5} has ended.

Charts. The upper chart shows the entirety of wave 4{-4}. The lower chart show wave D{-5}’s movements overnight and a few minutues into the session.

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures rose even higher during the session, to another new peak, this time 7611.50. Elliott wave D{-5} continues its rise.

Decision Points. A move above 7611.50 would further extend wave D{-5}, but would not change its late-stage status. A decline back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle remains the operational confirmation that wave D{-5} has ended and wave E{-5} has become the primary count.

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures rose to a new peak overnight, 7595.75, and thereafter fluctuated sideways.

What does it mean? The Elliott Wave Theory count shows a fifth subwave now underway within the rise that began on May 19. That rise is part of wave C{-6}, the final subwave of wave D{-5}, which began on March 30 from 6353.25.

Bottom line: Wave D{-5} is nearing its end, but as Yogi Berra put it, “It ain’t over till it’s over.”

The entire structure is encased in wave 4{-4}, a declining corrective wave that began on October 29, 2025, from 6953.75 and has taken the form of an Expanding Triangle. Wave D{-5} is the next-to-the-last subwave of wave 4{-4}.

Decision Points. A move above 7595.75 would extend wave D{-5}, but would not imply that much more rise lies ahead. Sideways movement below 7595.75 would be consistent with a late-stage wave. A decline large enough to fall back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle remains the operational confirmation that wave D{-5} has ended and wave E{-5} has become the primary count.

Reading the chart. Price movements — waves – – in Elliott Wave Theory analysis are labeled with numbers within trending waves and letters with corrective waves. The subscripts — numbers in curly brackets — designate the wave’s degree, which, in Elliott Wave analysis, means the relative position of a wave within the larger and smaller structures that make up the chart. R.N. Elliott, who in the 1930s developed the form of analysis that bears his name, viewed the chart as a complex structure of smaller waves nested within larger waves, which in turn are nested within still larger waves. In mathematics it’s called a fractal structure, where at every scale the pattern is similar to the others.

Learning and other resources. Elliott Wave analysis provides context, not prophecy. As the 20th century semanticist Alfred Korzybski put it in his book Science and Sanity (1933), “The map is not the territory … The only usefulness of a map depends on similarity of structure between the empirical world and the map.” And I would add, in the ever-changing markets, we can judge that similarity of structure only after the fact.

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures rose to 7583.75 during the session, another peak that, under Elliott Wave Theory, confirms that wave D{-5} remains underway. The wave began on March 30, and as is often the case late in a wave, the new peak could prove to be its end, but that is not yet certain.

Decision Points. A rise above 7583.75 would extend wave D{-5}. A drop below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle would shift the working count to declining wave E{-5}. Until then, D{-5} remains the primary count.

9:35 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures began to fall from yesterday’s session high, 7570.75, and continued overnight to 7505.75. The futures then reversed, returning to the 7540s as the opening bell approached.

What does it mean? Elliott Wave Theory continues to favor the view that rising wave D{-5} remains underway, as it has been since beginning on March 30. The overnight decline was small compared with the full rise from the March 30 low, and the recovery before the opening bell further weakens the argument that declining wave E{-5} has begun.

The rise has slowed in mid-May, and the smaller movements may be signs that wave D{-5} is nearing completion. That said, near completion is not the same as complete.

Wave D{-5} is the next-to-the-last subwave of wave 4{-4}, a downward correction that began in October last year. When D{-5} is complete, declining wave E{-5} will begin. When E{-5} is complete, wave 4{-4} also will be complete.

Decision Points.

A rise above 7570.75 would confirm that wave D{-5} is still extending.

A fall below 7505.75 would be an early warning that the 7570.75 peak may have ended wave D{-5}, but it would not by itself confirm wave E{-5}.

The operational confirmation that wave E{-5} has begun remains a fall back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle, which is the form taken by wave 4{-4}. Until that happens, D{-5} remains the primary count.

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures fell during the session, reaching a low of 7515, and then recovered part of that loss.

Elliott Wave Theory. I continue to treat rising wave D{-5} as underway. The decline from the overnight high, 7570.75, is larger than the pullback discussed in the morning analysis, but it remains small when measured against the full rise from March 30 at 6353.25.

See the morning analysis, below, for a detailed discussion of wave D{-5}’s status.

Decision Points. A rise above 7570.75 would keep wave D{-5} clearly alive, although a new high at this late stage would not imply that much more rise remains ahead.

A decline below 7515 would strengthen the argument that 7570.75 may have been the end of wave D{-5}, but it would remain an early warning, not confirmation.

The stronger Elliott Wave confirmation would come if price falls back below the upper boundary of the Expanding Triangle. That would make declining wave E{-5} the primary count.

A later decline below 6353.25 would fulfill the expanding-triangle expectation that wave E{-5} fall below the end of wave C{-5}.

9:35 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures rose to a new overnight peak, 7570.75. The new high is one point above the previous peak, 7569.75. The price then fell back into the 7530s.

What does it mean? The small push to a higher high verifies, using Elliott Wave Theory, that wave D{-5} continues its upward journey, which began on March 30 from 6353.25.

The decline from the prior high, 7569.75, was too small to argue strongly that wave D{-5} had ended at that peak and that wave E{-5} had begun. It was a blink within the much larger rise from March 30. And so it proved to be.

The message of the new high, 7570.75, once again will depend upon what comes next — a small decline, a small higher high, or something significant.

There is no way to know yet. Once again, the new peak may be the end of wave D{-5}, or not.

In either case, the parent wave, a 4th-wave downward correction labeled wave 4{-4}, will not be complete until wave D{-5} and then the future declining wave E{-5} are complete. The end of E{-5} will be the end of the Expanding Triangle form that wave 4{-4} has traced, with each rising subwave rising higher than the one before and each falling subwave falling lower. That suggests wave E{-5} is likely to reach the 6350s and lower.

Decision Points. A rise above 7570.75 would keep wave D{-5} clearly alive, although a new high at this late stage would not imply that much more rise remains ahead.

A sideways movement near the high, or a small decline followed by another small higher high, would also keep wave D{-5} alive.

A decline that remains shallow compared with the rise from March 30 would not, by itself, be enough to declare wave D{-5} complete. The chart would need to produce a decline large enough to matter at the D/E degree.

A decisive decline from the 7570.75 area, especially one that breaks below recent intraday support and continues lower, would strengthen the argument that wave D{-5} has ended and that declining wave E{-5} has begun.

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures continued to rise early in the session, reaching into the 7550s, and then resumed the decline that had begun overnight. The price has fallen to a session low of 7517 as the session enters its final half hour.

Elliott Wave Theory. The pullback within rising wave D{-5} has carried the session low below the overnight low, 7525.25. That increases the likelihood that wave D{-5} ended at the peak of the rise that began on March 30.

Possibly. But not certainly. The decline could still prove to be another wave D{-5} head-fake before a rise to a higher peak. At this stage, every pullback from a new high must be taken seriously, but none can be treated as confirmed until price follows through.

Decision Points. A new high above the wave peak, 7569.75, would keep wave D{-5} alive and would invalidate the immediate case that wave E{-5} has begun.

A continued decline below 7517 would strengthen the argument that wave E{-5} is underway. A sharper break below the 7500 area would strengthen that case further, especially if followed by lower highs on rebounds.

A recovery back into the 7540s and 7550s would weaken the immediate wave E{-5} case, but would not by itself prove that wave D{-5} is continuing. The deciding evidence remains price: either a new high for D{-5}, or a sustained decline that begins to look like more than another intraday pullback.

9:35 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures rose to a new peak, 7569.75, during holiday-thinned trading. The new high verified that the rise that began on March 30 remains underway. Price then retreated overnight to 7525.25 and has recovered into the 7540s.

What does it mean? Elliott Wave Theory identifies the rise from March 30 as wave D{-5}, the next-to-last wave within declining wave 4{-4}, a corrective wave that began on October 29, 2025.

Wave 4{-4} has taken the structure of an Expanding Triangle, meaning that as its five subwaves work through their rises and falls, each rising wave reaches a higher high than the previous rising wave, and each declining wave reaches a lower low than the previous declining wave.

A line drawn between the starts of waves A{-5} and C{-5} creates an upper boundary for the triangle, with the expectation that wave D{-5} would peak in the vicinity of that boundary. Wave D{-5} has moved beyond the boundary, reaching 7569.75.

Under such circumstances, each peak is potentially the end of wave D{-5} and the beginning of declining wave E{-5}. Or not. The recent history of wave D{-5} has been new peak, sharp decline, recovery, and then another rise to a new peak. Which model applies to the present rise and pullback is not yet known.

Decision Points. A rise above 7569.75 would keep wave D{-5} active and extending. It would not, by itself, imply that the rise has much farther to go; this late in D{-5}, every new high also increases the risk that the next reversal will begin wave E{-5}.

Holding above the prior D{-5} peak near 7540 would support the view that the holiday-session breakout is being accepted by the regular market.

A decline below 7540 would weaken the breakout but would not by itself end wave D{-5}.

A decline below 7525.25, the overnight low, would make the pullback more serious and would strengthen the argument that the holiday high may have ended wave D{-5}.

A decline into the 7500–7507 area would restore the ambiguity that marked earlier reversals within wave D{-5}.

A decline below the 7470s would move the possible beginning of wave E{-5} from a cautionary alternate into a serious working count.

Wave D{-5} remains the working count, but Tuesday’s regular session must validate the holiday high. The price action so far is neither acceptance nor rejection. It is hovering near the key zone, which is exactly where ambiguity would be expected.

Three-day Market Weekend. U.S. markets will be closed on Monday for Memorial Day, which honors U.S. military personnel who died in service. The S&P 500 futures will resume trading Monday evening.

3:30 p.m. New York time

Half an hour before the closing bell. The S&P 500 futures continued rising during the session, reaching 7524. The session high stands 16 points below 7540, the peak of the rise that began on March 30.

Elliott Wave Theory: Rising wave D{-5} continues. If the futures exceed 7540, that would confirm that the May 14 peak was not the end of D{-5}, and that D{-5} remains the current subwave within wave 4{-4}, a corrective wave that began in October 2025.

That confirmation would not mean D{-5} has much farther to rise. This late in the structure, any new high can become the final high of D{-5}, followed by the beginning of declining wave E{-5}.

Decision Points. A move above 7540 would remove the May 14 peak as a possible completed D{-5} high and would keep the immediate count pointed upward.

A failure below 7540, followed by a decline back through 7500 and then the 7480s, would preserve the ambiguity and suggest that the futures may still be forming a topping structure.

A decline below today’s session low, 7466.75, would weaken the D{-5}-continues case. A move below the 7410s, and especially into the 7350s, would strengthen the alternate count that declining wave E{-5} has begun.

Until price either exceeds 7540 or falls with more force, the working count remains: D{-5} continues, but it is late enough that every high must be treated as potentially terminal.

9:35 a.m. New York time

What’s happening now? The S&P 500 E-mini futures continued to rise overnight, reaching slightly above 7500 for the first time since May 14. The price remains below the 7540 peak of the rise that began on March 30 from 6353.25.

What does it mean? When Elliott Wave Theory is applied, the case for rising wave D{-5} still being underway has been strengthened. For days there has been ambiguity over the status of the D wave: Had it ended on May 14, with declining wave E{-5} beginning, or was the D-wave rise continuing?

The alternative reading, that wave E{-5} has been underway since May 14, remains possible but has become less likely.

Decision Points. A move above 7540 would produce a new high within the rise from March 30 and would strongly support the view that wave D{-5} is still underway. It would not, by itself, prove that D has much farther to rise; this late in the structure, any new high can also become the final high of D.

A failure below 7540, followed by a decline back through the 7460s and then the 7410s, would restore the ambiguity and reopen the case that wave E{-5} may have begun at or near the May 14 high.

A decline into or below the 7350s would strengthen the wave E{-5} argument. Until that sort of downside follow-through appears, the better working count is that wave D{-5} remains active.

See the menu page Analytical Methods for a rundown on where to go for information on Elliott Wave analysis.

Tim Bovee, Private Trader tracks the analysis and trades of a private trader managing his own accounts. The content reflects my interpretation of market structure, including Elliott Wave Theory and related tools.

Nothing in this blog constitutes a recommendation to buy or sell stocks, options, or any other financial instrument, or to pursue any particular strategy. The purpose of this blog is education and entertainment.

No trader is ever 100 percent successful. Trading in stock and options markets involves risk and uncertainty. Each trader must make decisions for his or her own account and accept full responsibility for the outcomes.
