jerry, i'm not going to argue--i think your talking about a bull trap--i was taking about a bearish signal reversal--at least 7 columns across--loweer lows and then reverses up to break a double top--which is what happened on the spx chart--my understanding is a bull trap is a triple top break by one box --and then a reversal down--sucks in the last bulls and traps them i'll look it up tomorrow

Jerry, I've lent my book out to my son's teacher, but I am pretty sure that a bullish signal reversal does not happen until the buy signal has reversed all the way down to a sell signal, which will require the SPX to print 1420 I believe. The bull trap that I am familiar with requires a triple top break of one box to reverse down, but I could be wrong about that part of it.
