Because we use these terms

Posted by polish1 on 12th of Feb 2016 at 09:25 am

Because we use these terms daily – and confusedly – Ned Davis Research (as reported by Jeff Hirsch at the Stock Trader’s Almanac) has elucidated and clarified the definition of a bull and a bear market.

A cyclical bull market requires a 30% rise in the DJIA after 50 calendar days or a 13% rise after 155 calendar days. Reversals of 30% in the Value Line Geometric Index since 1965 also qualify. A bear cyclical market requires a 30% drop in the DJIA after 50 calendar days or a 13% decline after 145 calendar days. Reversals in the Value Line Geometric Index also qualify.” “Bull and bear markets are measured at peak and trough dates, so both the time and price criteria must be met as of the peak and trough dates.”

I trade QID and SQQQ. As far as S&P, I can get a quote on all except ES. When I enter that into stockcharts, I get Evergreen Resources( or something like that). What am I doing wrong?

Where are they recommended? I was thinking 10%. I don't think these things are ready to rise yet.

@dwolanchuk :  $CL_F  FWIW Ewave bounce to near $70 is likely—it's the b-wave of the rally which came off the last low around $30

Brilliant well done. At very important inflection points both you and Steve happen  to either be away from the computer, have an internet problem or are sick.. Truth is you haven't a clue where things are going and you second guess after the move has already occurred.
