And shoulders over 3 weeks. Completed, and busted. The thing measures to about 3805. The 5 day cycle projection points to 3855-70.
The right shoulder is slightly higher than the left. I can’t remember the last time one of these, with a right shoulder higher than the left, broke down and led to a big decline. Even 3800 would surprise me.
