That's a powerful chart you have there... As for what Don Worden is trying to say... I am not sure, I think he is suggesting a return to "normality" meaning that the market may be under the bear, yet the current rally is quite powerful, and it may be giving signs of a turn around... I think he means that his indicators are beginning to react more as he is accustomed to, instead of being under a bubble or a relentless bear.

But that is a mere impression. I have never been good at "predicting" what the beast will do and imo either "arguing" with the market or guessing what it will do next is a total waste of energy.

So I just attempt to follow its actions... with the proviso... if wrong, take losses quickly and force me to keep the winners.

To illustrate... in the recent sell off in ACS, I jumped in and got a handful of shares at $38.75... then I did the stupid thing and sold for a 2 point profit... had I kept it I would have already be better than 10.00 pts ahead... dumb

However on the "quick loss" thing I am getting better and after a foolish attempt to short QLGC... I got out quickly... in the long run it seems to work. My main problem is sticking to rules... But don't trust my judgement, at times I feel like an cork from an old wine bottle bopping up and down in the waves of a furious sea; oh and I repeat to myself a bunch of T/A rules pretending to believe that they all work... I think Fibos do fairly well... (for no other reason that there are a few other maniacs looking at exactly the same charts...

So it is like a hypochondriac, who feels sick because he thinks he is... you know, the self imposed penance, just because everyone does the same thing... -lol
