There is an archived interview with
Robin Dayne on Voice America's Elite
Masters of Trading recorded on 4-12-2006.
Cook discusses the Cumulative Tick Indicator.

At 19:45 into the .mp3, Cook says "....the
overbought reading that we have currently
at this time is giving us a signal that the
S&P futures will decline 300 points.... (wOw,
wOW! [Robin Dayne]...."
At 40:20 ".....now asking me when I think this
will materialize....it will happen before 2006
is completed....(yep [Robin Dayne]...."
As a benchmark for the merits or demerits of the
Cook Cumulative Tick, you make the call.
The CCT as a heads up on market conditions? sure.
Tradeable information? By itself, I don't think so.
The 300 point retracement he was expecting
didn't begin to materialize until about 17
months after this interview. The June/July, 2006
retracement didn't qualify.
But maybe I'm being too hard on him.

It declined about 100 points in 3 weeks after the interview. It was precipitated by the Bank of Japan raising their interest rate by .25. After that, the G-7 forced the BoJ to back off. Two 10-percent declines on two interest rate increases was more than they could stomach.
