     RealTraders,

     An update on the 3/29/98 energy point for
the TYX.  Instead of the 50% retracement holding,
a rise ensued to a monday high just at the .682
Fibonacci retracement.  NP still indicates 3/29 as
the energy point, though if a cit was a day early.
Tuesday opened at the high and engulfed the
previous day, closing near it's lows.

     The two day pattern meets Robert Miner's
description of a Snap-Back Reversal Day (SBRD)
in his  book, "Dynamic Trading".
The SBRD is a "two day reversal signal", in which
"Day One: the market makes a new high with an
open in the lower 1/3 of the daily range and the
high in the top 1/3 of the daily range..."
"Day Two (snap-back day): The open is in the
top 1/3 of the daily range and the close in the
bottom third of the daily range...."
    
     For reference, here are the ranges for the first
     two days this week:
     Mon. O 59.51  H 59.89  L 59.44  C 59.75
     Tue.  O 59.78  H 59.78  L 59.32  C 59.37

     In his book, Mr. Miner identifies this set-up
as a trend reversal signal, which he cautions are
"... only valid as trend reversal signals when the
technical analysis indicates the market is in a
position for a trend reversal."
     It looks like a change in trend, NP being off one
day.  A trade above Monday's high will disprove
this tentative conclusion.

     p.s.  NP gives an Automode signal for the
             nasdaq 100 index for 4/11/98.

     Best wishes to all,

     Rory Lewellen           RL2946@xxxxxxx
