However Lunde famous that the most recent market fashions are completely different, saying the 200-day shifting common will not be the identical in each cycle, and he doesn't count on the sharp decline that adopted the same transfer final yr to happen this time.

Nevertheless, on this cycle, with the present rally being gradual and secure, we’d count on the decline to be gradual. That’s not the case.”
