Analyze the TA in the follow charts of bear market recoveries, particularly the Stochastic RSI, the depth of the trading range, and the amount of time spent consolidating before breakout. These are all logarithmic charts to help emphasize and compare the depth of trading ranges.

Thoughts?

Good analysis, as always, TERA. Glad to have you on board here.

One thing: I'd be careful to place too much trust on *daily* StochRSI. It moves fast by design, and on the daily time frame it can be a useful trading tool for individual buy/sell decisions, but to judge the likelihood of a longer-term reversal, I believe it is preferable to look at it on a weekly scale:



In which case, we see that your main point stands: We're nowhere near the oversold state we were in in June/July, timewise. That, among other things, makes me rather skeptical this bear market is over yet... even though I'm also skeptical we'll probe new lows soon -- more like a continued, reluctant decline, is what I could see in the coming month.
