Kathy: Caution. The decline looks like professional shorting to me. They are psychological terrorists. For example, three MMs align. #1 sits just below the previous day's high and absorbs all buy orders. As soon as buy arders are all filled, #2 sells stock to #3 at the bid. #3 quickly lowers the bid and sells at the lower bid to #2. Meanwhile, #1 is sitting above absorbing any real buy orders that come in. The resulting pattern is lower highs, lower lows and lower closes - a bad techical chart. Then they take some profits (covering) knowing the stock will pop up. Once up, they try to drive it down again, creating crushed hopes and a selling climax. Knowing what to watch for reduces the terror they try to engender.
