Not the answer to your question but it has been ages since I have been able to trade and can't recall the significance of what I am seeing right now. TRIN has just crossed over 1 which is bearish but TICK is skyrocketing which I recall is bullish. The indexes aren't moving much but some of the leaders I track are getting hammered. EMC whichnormally exhibits strength has fallen from 116-117 area to 112 and still falling, PC makers are getting hammered etc yet the NASDAQ is still only down about 20. Is this a flush out of weak shares where buying in is warrented or is this the last push up with the TICK before the real drop and a few stocks are just at the leading edge? The indexes that looked weakest seem to be holding so far. What am I missing or forgetting here? Also the Declining volume is almost 2-1 in the major indexes but BB advances are highly positive on volume. Rotation to small caps? Good Luck, Lee PS - Forget my call for AMR being a possible short, just noticed the airline sector didn't look too weak on closing data from yesterday despite oil prices.
