I never look at things like ticks.... it's just that I happened to glance and notice it... it struck me as being very odd..... GZ

Zero does not pay attention as closely as a day trader might. We had this discussion last year. Someone said that a minus 1200 TICK indicated that it had to reverse. I recall at the time I phoned a friend of mine who tracks that stuff...Hank Camp as a matter of fact. He said it could drop, then hit 1600 in three days. Three days later, 16, 1700. ++++++++++ It can get much lower, no question. I've seen it. Matter of fact, I think I saw it pushing even higher once.
