Freep: Sorry, did not see the post on Friday as it was not addressed to me. Indicator is tech based. My market stuff is tech based unless otherwise stated. I don't trade the spx or dow. Not worth the time and effort in this market.
No, it would reset in certain circumstances but not in this one in my mind at this point. So if we get a big white stick here, something else/more is going on.
Re: " Or does it allow the topping process to continue like this for a few days after ringing. Price clearly hasn't blown out to the upside or nutting...."
Right ... top grind is typical. One usually gets a initial sell off which we had. A retest of the highs or slightly higher high which could carry to the close to make a new (marginal) closing high for the move. And then a bigger sell off to follow with a lower low.
