 Jim, 
I would agree on a deeper W5 drop.  If you 
look carefully on the chart attached the software has two target levels 
lower.  These are shown in light blue as -5- , one around 500 which is the 
.618 expansion of the start of W1 to W3 low, subtracted from the W4 top. The 
other is the 1.0 expansion and down near 200+.  
  
On a shorter term basis just looking at the W5, 
another drop would make the pattern even better.  I labeled this count in 
yellow with this up move being minor w4 of wave 5, which is already at a very 
high .618 retracement of the minor wave 3 of W5.   
  
The MOB hit makes me think we will not get it 
though currently.  The software is generating the count, and it is 
important in my mind the a fairly clear five waves down have occurred to this 
point.  I don't profess to be an EW expert by any means. 
  
I adjusted the lower triangle line back to where it 
should be.  The line I had before was just marking out a support level 
I was watching. 
  
I added the Armstrong date as well, but as I said 
it may not be tied to equities?   
  
The Venue retrograde is from Merriman who, for 
several weeks was calling out that event as "a high 
signature" of being one that could cause a change in trend.  See 
http://www.stariq.com/MarketWeek.HTM "
Venus retrograde 
last week worked every bit as impressively as its history would suggest, as 
reported in ?The Ultimate Book on Stock Market Timing Vol. 3: Geocosmic 
Correlations to Trading Cycles.? If a market completes a significant cycle high 
or low near the time of Venus retrograde, it is not uncommon to see it reverse 
and start a counter-trend move that lasts into the time period when Venus turns 
direct. Venus turns direct in five weeks (April 18). The Venus direct period 
also has a high historical correlation (73%) to the culmination of primary or 
greater cycles within ten trading days."

  What a great 
  chart.  It fits extremely well with Armstrong?s April 15 PEI which he 
  projects to be a ?reactionary high? (?It?s Just Time?, October 2008).  
  I?ve got to think about it for a while since the EW powers prefer a deeper 
  wave 5 (although Prechter felt it was a near tossup Monday, 2 weeks ago, and 
  closed all his short positions).   
   
  On 
  reflection, you should remove the triangle indication that encompasses the 
  square 3 and 4.  It might be a triangle in the Edwards/Magee sense, but 
  it hasn?t any EW validity.  That doesn?t necessarily change the validity 
  of the EW count.  However, on page 51 of EWP ?A triangle always occurs in 
  a position prior to the final actionary wave in the pattern of one larger 
  degree, i.e., as wave four in an impulse?..?  So, my criticism of the 
  charted EW count is that there isn?t a valid EW triangle that precedes your 
  wave 5 down.  In practice, I have seen Hochberg and Prechter ignore this 
  rule (or at least not pay attention to the ?always?) time and again.

  The Advanced GET tool called 
  the MOB (make or break target in light blue and cyan) on the attached marked 
  the low well, actually hitting the black timing on the MOB only one day 
  off (prior MOB's also shown).    
  
  
  Also note the massive 
  divergence below the chart on the MACD and 5/35 oscillator (used to place the 
  Elliott wave count). Red lines are linear regression channels based on 
  H+L/2.  
  
  
  Seems like a logical place 
  for a bounce (or more)? Also some Astro time marks were present.
