The Bear Market of 2022 continues with volatile and dangerous conditions and some extremely rapid moves in both directions with selling into recovery advances and stepping lower becoming the norm.

The theme of price collapse continues with drops into deeper lows followed by strong recoveries to previous points of 'disappointment'.
June continues with another rapid and destructive decline from the late May recovery into the early June highs - coincidently the site of the March lows and the point of previous strong buying for the recovery into the late March high. Now looking like an important pivot point.

The T volume oscillator 1 made another series of Buy Signals in the late April - early May timeframe and this led to the strong thrust higher into the late May high. The rapid and ugly decline from the initial projections for a high indicate that the overall structure continues to be extremely bearish and that the market is ultimately looking for a deep low or series of deep lows - a platform - from which to stage the next advance.
We are looking for some real signs of stabilization, a 'v' or 'w' pattern in price and oscillator and given the bearish price action we should look for the market to take out a previous high with strength, preferably with the T volume oscillator moving upwards through the long declining cash build up line 2.
When that occurs we should see a significant lasting move back higher.
We are therefore prepared for a recovery but still mindful of the potential for lower prices from this level.
1 The T volume oscillator is an indication of Buying Power within the market as a whole
2 The cash build-up line is a declining line drawn above a series of lower highs made in the oscillator.

The weekly chart provides a bigger picture of the current Large structure centered at the March 2020 low and projected the important early January high from the price peak in mid June 2018.
The collapse of this structure is looking increasingly bearish as price looks for a significant support level which of course could still be a lot lower.
We are of course looking at the left-hand side of a large T structure, still in its early development with its center yet to be defined.

The monthly chart shows the series of Large structures that were collectively projecting highs for March and April 2022 and were extending the much larger Mega T structure. The collapse from the New Year high was rather ominous and was suggesting that the projections came in a little early, in which case the market is looking for a much more important low or series of lows for the next larger structure.
That could of course still be much lower.

2022 continues with price dropping sharply from the top of a range that has become increasingly expansive since the move above 2500. With price moving below the extremely volatile range from 4100-4600 we can only assume that this expansive price action will continue - in both directions - and that the important 2020 highs around 3385 and 3500 may now become the target. This is a Brave New World and we should trade accordingly.
