For instance, a sensor on your milk carton in the refrigerator might notice that you're down to the last cup and send out an order to the local grocery store.

Here is the current chart :

The MMA13 has been touched and broken. So if my scenario was correct, we should soon see a diminutaion in the volumes and an UP trend coming back. We could perhaps drop a little bit more and go touch the MMA20 (second green circle) but that line must hold and trigger the bounce.
