Hi Pat. I haven't been trading since the first of the year (unfortunately) so my butt is hang out there. In the past I've always been pretty well covered up when these things hit. I haven't updated my neural models in months, but they went short a couple weeks ago, and are still short, in general.

I did a plot of the DOT versus the 1991-1993 biotech crash, and the plots are identical. This leads me to believe that we see a pattern similar to the one you describe, with a gap down in the morning, and then stability. Note that there was no strong rally at the bottom, but rather a flat period, followed by a rally a few weeks later. I don't expect much of a rally for a week or two.

Next week is options expiration, and that should provide a little support for a weak rally later in the week, though I expect a re-test of the lows next week.
