Cycle trendlines/channels used in concert with Elliott Wave patterns and gaps are the basis/crux of "Trade the Cycles." Much of the time SPX (S & P 500, ) is simply engaged in gap filling action. Also, often, important cycle highs/lows occur shortly after gap filling action has been completed. Once a downside gap gets filled there's usually a significant bounce soon thereafter on an intraday basis, or, a significant decline almost always occurs soon thereafter, if an upside gap gets filled. Often, a session cycle high or cycle low will occur soon after an upside or downside gap gets filled.

Elliott Wave 12345 up down up down up patterns are very useful. Inverse Elliott Wave 12345 down up down up down patterns are also very useful, and, usually also follow an Elliott Wave ABC down up down pattern (an Elliott Wave pattern within an Elliott Wave pattern, which is a common occurrence). Candlestick charts are an extremely important/useful tool. Dramatic volume spikes almost always confirm/coincide closely with important cycle highs/lows (price spikes/inverse spikes).
