Hi Carl,

My magic technical #'s for the end of this correction are as follows:

MCLellan Summation: -300 to -500
5 Day Trin : 6.3 or higher
NYSE New highs : <25
NYSE New Lows : >300
VIX : >29

These #'s should correlate with what we saw on these indicators from the 4/97 & 7/96 primary wave corrections.

Of course you can look for other items like a high volume selloff/reversal day, and a double bottom or Ascending Triangle on a 30 minute chart, and a Tick reading of -1500 or worse. I use put call activity indexes to see turns, and I would need to see a 4 to 1 activity ratio or better(Puts over Calls) to get confirmation from that indicator that the bottom is in. The next Bradley Turning point is May 29th + or - a day or so, so that date (Friday) could loom large as a significant turning day.

I give the low 1070's a 60% probability of holding this selloff, the high 1050's an 85% probability, and the low 1030's a 99.9% probability of holding prices from heading lower. So I think it's more likely than not that the low 1070's will hold. Of course, it ain't over til these 5 waves down end. Where are we in your count now? What part of 3 of C?

Regards,

David
