I have to add that technicians are happy as long as new lows stay under 120-100.This would be when they would begin to feel a reversal is imminent.Over 300 is extremely bearish.When new lows first exceed 140 techs start to look for good shorts and avoid long positions.I'm with Don that we're going lower soon after a head fake rally as good as anything Michael Jordan could dish out so beware.

Regards,Dave

<suck the smaller investors in to hold the market up long enough to get out at better prices.>

Exactly what I suspect is going on.

I'm no market guru but the rally late had no substance. The logic appears to be to suck in the minor player to sell to while the smart money bails out.

Just a guess.

Don,

I have lurked for a long time here on SI (including the other thread) and have always enjoyed your commentary...

Since you piqued my interest in this subject, I thought I'd share a link to help you get some old data.

decisionpoint.com

download all three files to get data from 1980 to last friday. I am going to wipe all all the extra info that he provides since I dont know how it's used. perhaps we can compare notes.
