Hi Don,

I know that the DOW and SPX have taken it on the chin but the NDX looks quite healthy. Maybe the DOW is simply lagging the NDX. Remember the DOW never sold off much during the NDX's 15% decline. The NDX retraced about half the recent gain then rebounded solidly. The NDX also sported a falling wedge this morning and broke out nicely from there. I still would like to see that 3800-3850 area taken out solidly before getting overboard but we might just get that. The question is will the Dow lag the NDX and catch up later or will the NDX join in with the Dow.

I bought oct 90 calls on the QQQ on the breakout from the wedge and am up solidly on that trade. I will wait for the 3850 areas test before deciding on the next move. If we breakout of there it will be margin time.

Peace

don,

I understand this may be a rather dumb question, but......

>>I realise that the NAZ can move up with the DOW heading down, but eventually that also catches up...

Fundamentally, I tend to agree; however, just to better understand your system.....are the various indices you track evaluated individually on each of their own merits, or is there any multiplier factored in that accounts for relativity between indices?
