Here's a very interesting recent quote from Peter Eliades of Stock Market Cycles: "At the end of todays trading, we noticed that the lowest single day TRIN reading over the past 10 trading days was 1.143. That seemed unusual to us, so we asked the computer to look back over the past 61 years (since 1940) to find out how many other 10 day periods had transpired without one single day reading below 1.14. We were stunned at the answer! The answer is none."

The 10 day ARMS index (TRIN) got up to 1.5 again last week. It used to have huge historical significance in indicating that a major bottom was to be put in within 20 trading days. It has now happened 4 times in the past year alone.

I don't pretend to know what it means, but there certainly has been a considerable amount of panic over the last 2 weeks.

PS - Here is a quick overview of the ARMS index that someone asked for: http://www.equis.com/free/taaz/armsindex.html
