Most Interesting Voltaire thank you. Your late May date also lines up well with the 168 month comparison chart I posted a couple of weeks back which projects a low into 25th May.

Re 1987 - Someone always has to pull 1987 out of the bottom draw. It might as well be me. Here's a bunch of numbers. The comparisons are a little too close to feel comfortable.

Using DJIA;
25/7/84 to 25/8/87 = 778 trading days and 1126 calendar days.

6/3/09 to 2/4/12 = 777 trading days and 1123 calendar days.

25/8/1987 plus 8 cycles of 1123.375 calendar days = 2/4/2012.

25/5/87 to 6/3/09 = 5417 trading days & 3904.54 range (closes)
Vector = Square root of 5417SQ + 3940.54SQ = 6677.52

6/3/09 to 2/4/12 = 777 trading days and 6637.55 range (closes)
Vector = Square root of 777SQ + 6637.55SQ = 6682.87

That is 100.0008% So bang on.

The 84-87 increase was 154.73% Low to High
The 09-12 increase was 105.52% Low to High

This could get interesting .... or maybe not.
