Stockcharts has $TICK at only -1392.
The rubber band is getting stretched but it has been stretched more before.

I don't think we're going to get that high... It seems to me the bear market is back and the nature of this next rally will confirm or deny it. If there's an initial spike followed by grinding upside, maybe.. But if it's several days of spikes.. it's a bear and no new highs.. maybe just a nominal high.. would be made.

I'm heavily leaning to this being a wave 1 down with a wave 2 up to come... I know the formation looks like an a-b-c down with 5 waves down from wave b. But it is so obvious to see that I can't see that being right. If we rally hard without any retrace during first few days, then we're obviously doing an a-b-c up. I dunno, lets see if Ben can take this to 1300 by friday, which would be the objective of the W-bottom. If he did, then I would be more inclined to think a rally from here would be a wave 2 up.

I see a bounce to SPX 1310 is in the cards though. This is an OpEx week in which thend often changes on Thursday.

I agree bounce to 1290s, sell down and then rally to 1380 or so would be somewhere in between the 2012 valuation and 2011... It will be harder and harder to push any higher as POMOs are also running out. This sell off is a bit news driven, but it is not happening in US, it is happening in Japan. The small caps did OK today...

whats so bullish about this situation. nobody knows whats going to happen with japan. what if the whole area becomes uninhabitable. can anybody say for sure that is not going to happen. the situation looks horrible to me from an economic standpoint not even considering the humanitarian issues
