LG, I think we can look at the NYA weekly chart for some clues as to what we could expect.
In 2004 through 2006 I see four lows that had staying power. All had a common ingredient - they either tagged the 50-EMA on the weekly, the lower Bollinger Band, or both.
The interim lows tended to hug the middle bollinger band on the weekly on a closing basis. 3-weeks of up, 4-maximum, then a resumption of the downtrend.
We need to hang up a bit yet for op-ex, but this sure looks like it's preparing the next leg down soon.
