Canada’s TSX 60 Index threatens to complete a large head and shoulders reversal with a break below support at 640. The first shoulder is in April 2010 and the second in March 2012. The recent iceberg on 63-day Twiggs Momentum warns of a primary down-trend. Failure of support would offer an immediate target of 560* and a long-term target of 460*.
* Target calculation: 640 – ( 720 – 640 ) = 560; 640 – ( 820 – 640 ) = 460

An iceberg is where the peak is just above the zero line, with at least 90% of the formation below the waterline — as with an iceberg at sea.
