I believe so.
It seems a bit unusual for the two (members and specialists) to diverge so much.
This one looks a bit more promising for bulls:

The reality is this week's data shows specialist shorting as a percentage of total shorting at 4.1%. Someone can correct me on this, but I believe that is a historic low. Normally that would be off the charts bullish, but this indicator has been severely skewed by the diminishing role of the specialists on the NYSE.
