If bear trend is started, how far it will go?

I did an analysis on the FBMKLCI weekly chart, we assume FBMKLCI is in wave A now. The support of wave A is about 1200. We ignore the smaller waves in the wave A. This should happen from Jan 22nd to the end of Feb time frame. Likely it will found a support at 1200 and rebound from there to form a wave B. The time frame for wave B likely between Mar to APR. The wave B likely resisted by 1250-1255 or 1267. From these points, a wave C will be started and this is the most serious correction of the 3 waves. The time frame should be from Apr to June. Possible support for wave C is 1100. If 1100 is broken, then the next support is 1036. If 1036 is broken, then 920 should be a solid support for FBMKLCI. If wave C break down 1100, the time frame should drag longer probably until Aug 2010. Please refer to the picture below.
