Yeah, and failure here and today will be a disaster for the market, for it'll mean it will take the actual COMPX bottom to stop this thing (short-term)...and if that's the case, it'll be only for a cup of coffee (and a sugar-roll bounce) before more down...

Bulls have a real problem at COMPX lows...we break those, and, as the saying goes, "where it stops, nobody knows"..

I think this thing is toast (short-term), but a turn here today we'll make me think a respectable bounce is possible, and that the double-bottom COMPX will be harder to break (than expected)

Looks like the pop was enough to close the opening gap on the SPX E-Mini, and it promptly sold down from there. P/C's show a good slug of index poot activity, but equities were down around 0.6-0.7 or so.

I have us (in the Naz) turning for a double bottom soon; just did b of B of a flat upward correction, now c of B. (we went up in three waves, down in five, so the jello "B" if it is a "B" isn't done yet - we got a little up jello "b" and need a matching impulse "c" to complete a zig-zag "B" correction of this morning's short covering.) This should produce a head-fake underneath the AM low on SPX, but it looks like COMPX should be able to complete a flat without new lows.

Longer term is easier to see on SPX; I see us entering C of 4 (which started at the open today) of 3 down (which started at SPX=1155 on Tuesday) of 3 down (which started Aug. 27th) of 3 (or C) down (which started July 31st) of A or 1 down (which started off the May highs). In other words, we should be wrapping up 3 of 3 of the third wave of whatever launched off the May highs in the next several hours. It would make sense to me to have the 5 of 3 of 3 of 3 land us at a COMPX retest,producing a multi day 4 of 3 of 3 rally.

I maintain that (from Naz perspective) this remains in the context of what the double zig-zag looked like in 1931 as the second zig-zag launched with vigor. While I didn't count Naz, it has similar structure to SPX; the SPX is just far clearer to read right now.
