What is a bull market trend like? What are the characteristics that define it and differentiate it from the preceding bear move?

1. The big violent up move off the bottom.
2. The relentless move up against steady selling pressure.
3. The absence of any pullbacks.
4. As it tires, the slowness of the ticks and the lack of up and down motion, low absolute volatility.
5. Broad participation by both sellers and buyers.
6. Regular new highs, higher lows.

What are the other characteristics? What is the dividing line between the bear and the bull market both on the bottom and on the top? The $64 question.

Craig Mee adds:

Maybe also the release of some large pressure valve that had its foot on its throat, and the reluctant push lower from the beginning of the decline (especially when looking at near term correlated inter market relationships).
