Market assessment 20200404:
I think there is a high probability that we go lower. Call me crazy, but at this point I am still more interested in "return of capital" than "return on capital." Asset classes moving together (Chart 110) so no safe place in another downturn.

Crash: (1) initial drop 30+%, (2) bounce to down only ~20%, (3) drop to 40+%, (4) bounce higher than the first, (5) drawn out decline. Steps 1 and 2 complete. We should know within a month about Step 3.

These are the likely signs to get back in (asterisk if true):

Chart 104 Momentum turning up*
Chart 103 VIX below 40, Bullish Percent above 40, Summation above -300, A/D above moving avg

Chart 108 Bottom indicated, but expecting only a bounce like 4Q 2018

-----------------------------------------
Approach:
Pullback in strong uptrend: high SCTR (e.g., >70) with dropped RSI (e.g., < 70) (see example Chart 119) and a ideally with a character change on the 1-minute chart (see example Chart 120).

Recommend "Trading in the Zone" by Mark Douglas about the mental game.
