If you're talking about the McClellan Summation Index, remember that this an intermediate term trend indicator of the SPX advance/decline line which has been rather indecisive in this regard prior to today's action. With the SPX McClellan Oscillator moving to new lows today, however, you should see some further erosion over the next couple of days in the MCSUM that might be more to your liking. :)

Yep, that would be the same one. You'll notice that the SPX breadth MCO had also been meandering back and forth at the zero line which caused the pattern you've described. And with this same MCSUM pattern not leading price, this whisper might be something worth noting.
