The EXIT door might be too small for these investors if there is a mad rush for the exits.

Prices have completed a textbook a-b-c retracement since its low in 02/2016.
The final c wave has evolved in the form of an Ending Diagonal.

The initial down wave has completed and is in the final phases of upward retracement.
A strong and incisive break down from current price will confirm the completion of the retracement.

A break above micro wave ((5)) at $37.46 could hint that the Ending Diagonal is not complete or other patterns are forming.

Anmerkung
JNK has turned higher in recent days since breaking down from its Oct 2017 high.
Critical resistance remains at its most recent high.
