Not even oversold on daily.
No candlestick suggestive of a bottom.
Id say with this kind of downward momentum it seems prudent to expect follow through action.

as i said prior, technical levels not too relevant , the big power players can move huge funds around at speed so this is a market that will not respect technicals per se.

on the positive VIX has just posted a record close.

so yes closer to the bottom than the top but if your a few days out with your bottom you may be on the wrong side of another thousand points.

why not wait for a nice big hammer, a cofirmed uptrend and a nice retracement repecting a low point?

dont catch the knife !
Dumbass I think I found a big red hammer at the bottom of this page
the DOW last close

Nah ..stopped catching falling knives many years ago (when I ran out of fingers)

Didn't buy anything today just observed ..pity

DOW S&P bounce tomorrow methinks
