I agree with most of the technical arguments from bears and i am myself on a short-sell alert. My own weekly indicators have already rolled over. But when everyone firmly beleive and overcrowd the short side, it hard to get a sustained decline. More stop running and cleansing of short positions are required IMO before we start a big decline. I am still sticking with my upside targets of about SPX 1550-1555, which should clean out a whole lot of stops.
Yesterday my 120-min was a hair's breadth away from the sell. The bouyancy from short positions was too much i guess. I think today will be the same story. What we need here is celebration. All major tops happen with some nice fireworks, media celebration. Bring it on...
Personally, I am of the view we can even go higher than that.
I have just gone long, but all these trades now have a tight running stop inplace to "watch my back". I cant get hurt too much in other words. If I see impluse down, I consider the downside for shorts.
It is quite possible according to my work that we are putting in a major bottom here as incredible as it may sound. It can literally go either way however at this juncture. Ii think a similar happened in 1995.
Good trading.

Shouldn't that be major bottoms? (especially when it comes to the media)All major tops happen with some nice fireworks, media celebration.
