Would you elaborate a bit on how you calculated the peak-peak cycle,
especially what starting point you used and how you decided upon it?

The 1234-1238 target and support area on the daily, which I referred to
yesterday, has been hit and the failure of the 45 min to mount a significant
retracement late yesterday now confirms the 1203-1205 area as the next
minimum target with likely targets of 1177 on the 45 min and 1153 on the
daily. A .25 retracements on the daily would be 1203 and most likely .382
fib retracement at 1157. One could conclude that a decline to the 1153-1157
is rather likely and such a decline would not represent serious damage as it
would represent a normal retracement of the cup and handle pattern which
began on July 20 and would leave the Dec 14 pivot low intact. A decline
below this level could signal the beginning of a further, more serious
decline to the 1074 area which represents .618 fib retracement and extended
price objective. It is interesting to note that after confirming the Jan 12
Wyckoff Thrust on the daily, we completed a Thrust on the 45 minute
yesterday - such repetitions tend to confirm the validity and strength of
the reversal.
