correction to 55 calendar day count: The 13th is a Saturday and the market is closed Monday, so just using calendar days only the 39th day would be Tuesday, February 16th. >>>From there you count approx 38 calendar days to the point where the slide begins in ernest, culminating on capitulation day, calendar day 55, approx March 4th. The 36th day is February 13th, the 39th day is February 16th, which happens to be the day Dell is due to report. Once certain oscillators reach a certain condition that will be a better signal than simply counting days. This will depend on how and what kind of rally unfolds in the interim. For instance, we might look for a 17 day a-d oscillator to stall at zero. Or it may fail at a point somewhat higher. For more on the 55 day "rule" see: Message 4486975 Vitas
