So far, if they can close flat or better, this will look like a successful retest.
Just like it did in May when they made higher lows a week apart.
When was the bottom? July?

Meanwhile CPC is going into orbit.

Give it some time, I think if its flat at this level for most of today, we'll be "retesting" soon, and probably fail. Just a FF. But I believe leg #2 is underway, and about to breach the lows.

No fear -- it's that simple. Everything's going to be just fine:

Could be. This high CPC is a market message.

PS: Jason Goepfert commented on the recent 90/10% volume days:

And if the recent low breaks, it will invalidate this pattern and I would not be looking for higher prices based on this extreme volume reversal any longer.

The P/C's can get pretty wild during op-ex week. Especially if the VIX is spiking. I under-weight the options datat during volatile declines, and especially during op-ex week. For instance, the OEX $-weighted P/C went out last night at 6. You'd think that would be very Bullish, but over the past year, such readings have been meaningless (I.e., sometimes they're Bullish, sometimes not). Mark

I agree with you Mark. The Put/Call ratios are primarily bullish at this point, but other indicators like EW, and volume/price a still bearish. I believe time frame wise we are getting close to a bottom, but I will wait until more short term indicators become oversold again.

Holy cow, we are busting previous lows on heavier volume and somebody wants to buy? They are on optijuana, I believe.
