On a technicality, it's not incorrect yet. On the contrary, so far it's correct.
Can't let the Elliott Wavers have it all their own way. As an analysis tool EW theory appears to be remarkably flexible, and quickly adaptable to changing circumstances.
As a general comment I have to say that the urgency is gone, I dont feel the need to get in in case I miss the "bottom" I donr really care any more if the ASX is up or down 100 points because I know it's not going to surge anytime soon.
That to me is the first sign of acceptance that the market is rooted for the medium term at least.

Despair: The final emotion is one of despair with the bear roaring, indexes down 20%, 30% or more, and leading stocks down 40% to 70% from their highs. Our losses have increased until we sell out in despair. We forget about stocks and the market indefinitely, instead of learning from our mistakes, giving up at the worst possible time. The market is down, but it always comes back. New sectors of stocks are emerging with new leaders ready to move ahead strongly.
Chin up Mr Burns, we may be through the worst of it

Once last rally possibly before we sink to new lows?
Hm how high do you think XAo will rally to before the new lows?
thx
MS
Define worst!
Repeat after me: this is NOT the bottom. The index is headed lower and much time has to pass before the trend changes. Momentum trading and buy-and-hold are not good strategies at these times. Not all the bad news is factored in, and the charts can lie.
FWIW my take is that it's a good time to be stock picking, especially in key new sectors like (say) energy and gold mining, while avoiding previous hot sectors like (say) financials. And always remember: margin of safety.
