Lee: Re: "Go back to October 9th 1998, and look at a chart of that reversal & look at a chart of last april 10, 2000 and see what it looked like? <<

Those two dates were typical reversal patterns with double bottoms approxamately 6 weeks apart.

Our current low on the NASDAQ and NDX was on a large decline with no previous low anywhere near here thus
I expect at minimum a retest in the future.

The most bullish looking charts are the OEX and SPX but the double bottom is a bit too close together to convince
me we are making a major trend change."

Excellent analysis and these are conclusions that I reached as well. But let me add on more thing you did not mention. We just had the biggest bear market in the Nasdaq in its history. A huge decline measuring over 65% and we are in a profit meltdown and a deteriorating economy. I find it hard to believe in this environment that we are going to "v" bottom here and never turn back without at least one retest. There has just been too much carnage in the averages for a "v" bottom. One would have to argue that it is different this time for this type of sudden reversal too take place and that has been a losing argument of late for sure.

Re: "Basically what we are looking for is a drop starting late Monday through Wednesday then another leg up to around 2200 NDX. Of course we are not THAT confident and also say have your stops in place in case we drop earlier in our mid term call."

If you are not confident in this projection and if you see a retest coming eventually, I am not sure why you would be doing anything right here except booking profits and considering some shorts.
