Watching the leader on the downside Rusty here for potentially HUGE clues in that regard.
And it should come on Monday.
Yesterday's action "could" have turned into a bottom, but the utter failure to hold the gains, now leads me to belive that a gap down and GO is very possible, if not now the most likely outcome.
This hourly chart, which could have "looked" like a bottom, had Rusty gone into full launch mode on Friday, now "looks" instead very much like a near border island in the river between Bull Country and Bear Country, as 1660 is clearly the border line. SO if we gap down on Monday and end well below 1660, rapid rupture speed type move is most likely outcome as we clear customs into Bear Country.
So if that island structure is indeed Halfway Island (it just does not "look" like a bottom formation here now), then 1400 or worse very doable, possibly relatively quickly, like by end of October or early November.
All that said, if Rusty does not gap down on Monday as I currently expect, then 1670 cash is what the bulls need to climb above and hold first, and then 1700 is the big one that would be an indication that the non-bottomy looking island really is perhaps a bottom.
