David, I am concerned that this outside reversal day on the SPX and the DJIA and that it may portend a leg to the downside especially since the DJIA daily chart was not able to get above the 10847 level or so that would be a .618 retracement of the decline from the august 24th high at 11366 down to the 5 wave low of 9973 on the djia on 10/18/99.

I believe a that a doji star and the long upper shadow occurred on both the DJIA and the SPX ...this coupled with the outside reversal day indicate a probable change in trend.

John

A doji star occurred (where a doji gaps above or below the previous candle). This often signals a reversal with confirmation occurring on the next bar.

A long upper shadow occurred. This is typically a bearish signal (particularly when it occurs near a high price level, at resistance level, or when the security is overbought).
