There was definitely two ways to look at the Market yesterday. That's always tough. Technical analysis in all forms can be indecisive.

With times like that I like to look at the leader, because I believe that's what the pros do (I'm definitely not a pro). From the recent low AAPL was in a nice uptrend channel. It broke out of that channel on Tuesday while the market only broke out of it's channel today. This is why I think keeping an eye on leaders can add to analysis even if you're just trading ETFs.

Thanks
1st rebound
Low is in for today?
unlikely, there're always exceptions though. :lol:
Thanks Cobra. Even if today's low is in, we will make new low for this leg down. I think 1080 minimum. 1000-1040 highly likely.

bots are programed to buy the dips and sell the rips (mean reversion) however once real selling comes in again, then it will push the index levels down again, i have a feeling we will see more selling around 1-1:30 pm.

I think fear is overdone.. I have been bearish since Feburary, and trading the whole H+S was a boner.
However I think we are headed much much higher =]

Mainly because I think many world markets have made a new support in a channel...
