Bill, the bullish case(and this has not unfolded yet) from a pure Ewards and
McGee type analysis, is that a bullish flag pattern is forming. The pattern
has not
completed, but the early stages of the congestion have a downward slope,
which for me is overall bullish until support is broken. (see
chart--magenta trend-lines)
The break of the upward blue tend channel along with divergent stochastics
undoubtedly called for correction. But notice the flag pattern, support
is reached right
at previous high --11/30/98 resistance line, and old resistance now becomes
support. This is two levels of support, and will be tough to break, but it
may happen.
An upward break of this pattern would mean a resumption of bullish trend, an
obviously we must wait to see if support can be broken to see if bear market
is here.
Right now, I am range trading, currenlty short, watching price action at
support in 1205 area basis cash.

I keep trying to attach a chart, but the file is to big. Anyway, the above
description describes a possible bullish scenario.
