Follow-Up: The BIG Drop Attempt At A Technical Explanation ... Last 03 MAR 2010, in light of the overall downtrending SPX, I posted the chart below with the following note: "... Watch for this continuation wedge formation (BEARISH), ... etc." I think that the wedge "did its job" in acting as a continuation pattern, holding on to the $SPX as far and as long as it did towards its apex. The result is no surprise, considering that the price precipitated to its "normal" technical place. Downwards, that is - IMHO: (NOTE - At this point, the chart reached a BEARISH trend as per 1/VIX relative to SPX) $SPX & 1/$VIX - 36-Month, DAILY Chart: stockcharts.com/c-sc/sc?s=$SPX&p=D&yr=3&mn=0&dy=0&i=p41901394159&a=167157465&r=893 - Dalcindo
