I understand your interpretation. Now it looks to me as if we are going to
complete a 5 (A or 1), with today's low at 114^14 being the 4. At least
this gives us something to do while we wait on this @^&%$@$ number to get
out of the way!!

Tom -

I have gone with a five wave count. The reason is because the night
session, following the 113-09 low saw bonds reach 113-05. Using that,
you do not get that funky three wave structure for wave-A and it becomes
easier to label wave-1 up to 114-07. Then, 50-62% retrace is I
114-04/113-20.

Interesting sidelight though is that I have leaned to the idea that
113-25 ended a three wave drop from the highs. If that is correct, then
you have the following possibilities:

1) 116-08/113-05 was wave-5 or wave-i of wave-5. That would make a-b-c
look more correct here. I do not like any counts using this as wave-5
since it implies very short lived 4th wave compared to other waves in
the drop since last October.

2) Wave-3 ended at 113-05. This fits in with five wave count up from
113-05 which could be wave-A in a zigzag still developing.

3) Wave-3 bottomed at 113-25, and at 115-04 completed a three wave
irregular correction. If drop holds 114-04/113-20, then would lean to
this being x-wave with wave-4 continuing longer as a double three. 

Just some further thoughts....
