I wanted to let you know that I glance over here every day. I think your charts make sense. May be I want the market to decline to shut my "buy-n-hold" friends get blasted or because I know that at these levels my risk to reward ratio is high.
No matter, I have learned to be very patient.
How did you come to picking 1334.81 for the current move higher?
I also think that the move from 1415 to 1292 might be wave i down. In this case, we are in wave ii which usually retraces 50 to 61.8% of wave i. This means that 1353 to 1368 is the target.
Pretzel has this option has well as the chance that this is wave iv of wave i down which means 1336.61 cannot be eclipsed. This would look similar to your take.
Anyway, I thought I would share what I see. I have noticed that you have posted at Pretzel's site. I love his analysis, but his blog is tough since so many people are there at one time. Most of the good bloggers over there are day traders. I am out of that business.
My 401K and IRA are waiting for a better entry point like we had last October. I look at this shorter term charts to try and determine if another leg higher is in the cards. A move from 1330 to 1360 (~3%) will not get me off the sidelines.

wave iii was 1366 to 1292 I think.
