Gary it looks like it generating a buy signal,
we have the nasd closing right at it's 200 dma and this
is also and options expiration day today.
so if we were to get noise and a false signal this would
be the time,

if we rally today, or even if we are largely unchanged today
and then have a strong up day monday, It's going to
be putting all 3 averages, djia, spx and nasd in buy mode.

now I now the VIX is low and closed just above 20 yesterday,
but it can go all the way down to 17 or so.

There is a fair amount of cash in people's portfolio's
from the anecdotal evidence I have heard.

I was at the Houston Investor's association and I saw more
bears than normal when they did the informal poll.
