But now all we see are sudden spike up, that's not enough time for program to run accumulation and that's why I suspect that today's low will be revisited. Just a thought as you know I don't trade based on such kind of speculation.
that makes total sense. I learned something again. Thanks.

INVERTED HEAD & SHOULDERS or DOUBLE BOTTOM

Same old boring bottom. We get a downtrend which is eventually broken on an interday basis. Then after the break of the downtrend, the SPY tests resistance which is around where the neckline of a developing inverted head & shoulders. After testing, and failing that resistance one of two things occurs. The market either retests the lows to form a double bottom or it sets up an inverted head & shoulders which leads to a multi-day rally. That rally will either bottom the market or fail and lead to a third leg down.

There's also the third option of the market making a new low on retest. But breaking the upper trend line like this usually means a bottom of some kind is near.

A thought: in a normal trading environment, your accumulation comments make good sense.

But in a whipsaw environment, emotional price action should be considered in both directions. If drops occur without accumulation, rebounds can too, perhaps even without the caveat that the rebounds probably won't hold because they occurred without accumulation. Just a thought.

When the market gains a better sense of Japanese events, we'll return to more normalized movement. If the market also can gain a better sense of ME events, we'll may even resume pomo grind up.

Barring Japan and ME, there's not much else out there right now that significantly counter-balances pomo.

That's my outlook through May.

Good trading!

The operator of the Fukushima nuclear plant says it has almost completed a new power line that could restore electricity to the complex and solve the crisis that has threatened a meltdown. The new line would revive electric-powered pumps, allowing a steady water supply to troubled reactors and spent fuel storage ponds, keeping them cool.

The market is very emotional, that's all I want to say. If you cannot see clearly, just stay outside, there're plenty of chances in this stock market.

A little Fib. By the way, the market gapped down 6 days in a row, so normally I won't expect another gap down tomorrow. The good news for bears is finally, there's just a half V shape reversal, assuming no big changes in the last 14 minutes.
