Well we finally got the retracement I was looking for. It was shallow at 23.6% but the 1990 low established the rising channel from 1904 that I had been mentioning as a possibility since last week.

There is still a possibility that a double top is forming at a test of the current highs, but I’m expecting another push up first.
