AbAx was kind enough to forward me this post. Yes, I recall this.

I'm speculating that we should have a bottom on 7/29 based on cycles. If
we do, good. However, I don't trade cycles so I was just adding more
info to the thread. This is not what I would call one of my 'official'
forecasts. Anyway, still looks like a bottom to me. :)
