%%As far as I know & I'm still learning, the bearish view is a 2-part determination. First is that on the Monthly time frame 5 waves up are near completion or completed. Second is the crowd sentiment. A 5-wave up completion combined with high complacency is a recipe for disaster. This is what I am learning now. And I have tons of homework in this regard.
QQQ went UP 5 [12345]months in a row late 2018,Sandra-eng, then almost 6 months,Higher ;but QQQ monthly chart closed a bit lower.
The weekly chart 10-5-2018 did make a new HIGH; looked like OCT would live its nickname==''bear killer''. Instead it was a bear starter LOL/true. Easy for a strong trender , like QQQ to make 5 or 6 or 7 months highs in a roW= much harder to close 7 months higher. Actually QQQ made 8 months higher highs=1999/2000; but not 8 months higher closes.
