Being this bear is just about the longest on record since the 30s, I have some reservations about how good indicators might work , like it's a sort of new situation and the old indicators may not be as valid. -- Longer term I see the price of crude oil/ natural gas as key to growth or contraction, ( the cost of energy ) is permeated into every thing. -- Short term I've fell back to using a price volume indicator of the most popular traded stocks ( as traded per dollar) against the major indexes. But it's very short term and I don't get to watch it as much as I need to, however I'm doing a lot more watching than trading, & there seems to be a lot of rotation with the market not going any where since Nov 1st.
