Elmer, So you think we might go up and it's also possible we might go down. Do you get paid for these forecasts? Lol. Joe

Elmer, you obviously don't look at technical forecasts that much. In essence, they all say, "I think that the stock [or market, depending on the forecast] will go up, unless it starts going down, in which case I think that it will go down."

OK, Elmer, I don't want to spoil your fun, but... Most TA practicioners do not try to predict the market. They try to find situations where "if A happens, then B is highly probable". I made a pretty unequivocal prediction: "if it moves up out of the flag, we will have one mother rally" If we don't get the flag, or the market fails to break-out of the flag, then I think we could see new lows. I don't pretend to know where the market will be in 2 weeks, 2 years, or 2 decades. Just, "if A happens, then B is highly probable"
