Current calculations indicate the Nikkei 225 is expected to continue its retracement into the February 21, 2020 to February 25, 2020 gap within 5 trading days. After entering this range the Nikkei 225 and Dow are expected to stall and start moving lower. Preliminary calculations indicate the Dow is expected to reach 18481.
Gold: Next Turning Point
At this point gold should fluctuate within a range of 1727 to 1639 until the first week of July. The current structure and acceleration rate indicates a turning point should occur on July 6, 2020 (+/-1 trading day) where gold is expected to reach a price target of 1639 (+/- 1%) prior to moving above 1765. Preliminary calculations also indicate the gold timeline has been compressed significantly with a parabolic move starting slowly after July 2020 and reaching a peak of 4000 (+/- 2.5%) during the first quarter of 2021.
Dow: 1937 Parallel
Market Makers and Commercial Futures Traders continue to fill minor gaps in the Dow structure on their way to closing a final gap created on February 24, 2020, just as they did on August 12, 1937 before starting a sharp decline. Similarities between 1937 and today are noted in the following interview.

Dow: Filling the Gaps
Based on high volatility in the futures market related to filling an unusually high number of price gaps in the Dow over the last two months, Futures Traders have aligned their positions in an attempt to fill the gap created on the NYSE at the opening of February 24, 2020. Once this is complete a decline is expected to commence going into late 2020.
Dow: Retracement Peak
Calculations indicate the Dow is expected to hit a peak closing price of 25054.98 (+/-1%) this week. This will mark the end of the retracement structure and a decline should start immediately thereafter.
Dow: Extended Decline
The decline to 18590 (+/-1%) is still expected to occur by July 1, 2020, as noted on May 16, 2020. In addition to this, calculations indicate the Dow is expected to continue moving lower after July 1, 2020 to 15,178 (+/-1%) by July 15, 2020.
Dow: 24558 – 24559 Gap Filled
Due to a gap on the one minute futures chart that was left on April 30, 2020 at 06:52, Commercial Futures Traders pushed the Dow up to fill this gap before moving lower. Unfinished business still remains as noted on 5/8/20.
Gold: Declining with the Dow
Gold has been setup at this point to decline in tandem with the Dow going into the end of June. This decline is expected to take gold down to 1530 (+/-1%) by July 1, 2020. Upon completing this decline, structural data indicates gold is expected to continue moving well beyond 1700 in 2020.
Dow: May to June Decline
Commercial Traders setup a series of positions last week in order to complete the second half of the March 23, 2020 to April 29, 2020 Dow retracement structure with a decline to 18,590 (+/-1%) by July 1, 2020. It is possible this decline could move below the 18,590 level. Additional notes will be added if this is expected.
Dow: Unfinished Business
A detailed review of Dow futures trading data revealed a gap down of 282 points occurred between 5:00 pm (EST) on February 21, 2020 and 6:00 pm(EST) on February 23, 2020. This gap was not filled and subsequently led NYSE Market Makers to open the Dow with a reading of 28,402.93 during the morning of February 24, 2020. To resolve this gap a move up to 28,892.70 will be needed in 2020 before conducting the next major decline. In the interim, the Dow is expected to hit a low of 18,213 (+/- 1%) by June 9, 2020 before moving higher to resolve any unfinished business from February 23, 2020. After moving up to 28,892.70, another decline is expected to occur that will be larger than the February to March 2020 decline.
Gold: Precious Metal Shortage
Based on Commercial Trader actions, gold is expected to have a brief pullback in May. This will be followed by a steady climb to $2450 (+/- 3%) by mid-summer where it will pause before moving higher into 2021. Initial estimates show gold reaching $4000 by the first quarter of 2021. Watch for shortages of gold and silver.

Dow: 2020 – 2021 Collapse
Calculations continue to indicate the 2009 to 2020 Dow structure has been designed in a way that it will collapse very quickly in 2020. A deep decline is expected going into October 2020, ultimately reaching a low of 4964 in 2021. This target price aligns with long term engrbytrade embedded trade marker points.
Dow: 2020-2021
A detailed review of Dow structural data covering February, March and April 2020 indicates a decline is still expected to start this week. In addition to reaching 20,800 in May 2020, calculations revealed the current Dow structure is unstable and is expected to have a significant impact on markets in 2020 and 2021. The current rate of change in this structure indicates a potential decline to a level below 16,000 before the end of 2020.
Dow: Decline Continues
Market Maker activities over the last several trading days indicate a decline to 22,800 is expected to occur by Tuesday, April 28, 2020. Adjustments based on their activities also indicate that this decline will continue with a move down to 20,800 (+/-1%) by May 4, 2020 (+/1 trading day) before moving higher in May, June and July.
Dow: Decline in Progress
After an early morning drop on Tuesday, April 21, 2020, a move back up to 23,400 is expected. Structural calculations show the Dow moving down to 22,300 (+/-1%) by Friday, April 24, 2020.
Dow: Price Action Update
The result of today’s price action indicates Market Makers are planning a decline that will take the Dow down to 20,800 (+/-2%) by April 27, 2020 (+/- 1 trading day). The 18,213 support level is still in place.
Dow: Options Expiration Update
The sharp decline noted on 4/9/20 is in progress. Current structural calculations indicate the Dow is expected to reach 20,800 (+/- 2%) by April 16, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. If needed, calculations will be updated for the Dow hitting 18,435.
Dow: 18,213 Support Level
Based on a 51.3% retracement from the low of 18,213.65 on March 23, 2020 to a high of 24,040.58 on April 14, 2020, there is a 33% chance that the Dow will continue to fall to 12,800 (+/-5%) within a 30 day window if the Dow drops below 18,213.65. There is also a 66% chance the Dow will continue to fall to 12,800 by October 2020 if it drops below 18,213.65.
Dow and Silver: Rising Wedge
Observing one hour charts for the Dow and Silver, it appears they are near the end of a rising wedge formation before starting their decline.
Gold and Silver: 2020
The latest engrbytrade gold and silver model pricing timelines are decreasing at a rapid rate as the Federal Reserve continues to inject trillions of dollars into the financial system. The Federal Reserve has chosen a path that will force hard asset prices to move significantly higher by mid-2020. The first level expected for gold is in the $2450 range and silver in the $100 range. Volatility will increase as demand for gold and silver accelerates.
Dow: Options Expiration
Since March 23, 2020 Market Makers have managed to construct a Dow structure, along with inverse derivative structures, that indicate a sharp decline in the Dow is expected to start during options expiration week. At this point calculations show the Dow reaching a low of 18,435 (+/- 2%) by April 20, 2020 (+/- 1 trading day).
Dow: Short Sale Structures
Current structures in the Futures Market indicate Market Makers are in the process of accumulating short sales to maximize profits by adjusting the next low in the Dow to reach 20,819 (+/- 2%) by April 16, 2020 (+/- 1 trading day). The potential still exists for the Dow to reach 19,136 at a later date.
Silver: 2020 Low
As the stock market declines, structural calculations indicate silver is expected to decline to 10.75 (+/- 5%) by April 23, 2020 (+/- 1 trading day) for a final 2020 low prior to moving back up to 18.00 in May 2020. Preliminary calculations indicate silver prices in the $50 range during 2021.
Dow: Turning Down
Based on the rate of speed in which the Dow turning point arrived, structural calculations and volatility noted on March 29, 2020, a rapid decline is in order to a level of 19,136.17 (+/-2%) by Wednesday, April 8, 2020 (+/-1 trading day) prior to moving higher.
Dow: Extreme Volatility
A spread of 4,382 Dow points from the low on March 23, 2020 to a high on March 26, 2020 resulted in the development of a Dow turning point that arrived sooner than expected. The Dow is now expected to move quickly to a lower level of 20,123 (+/- 2%) before moving higher.
