Keep in mind a long term perspective and you'll be good. Thank god the market came back today, this past week had killed my earnings for the year. Justbought the 80 call for Chevron, hopefully it goes up tomorrow after earnings....

There are some market experts that are claiming that high frequency trading and dark pools create significant problems for normal price action. These toolsused by traders will prevent a normally distributed downside and possibly dislocation as the selling increases. In short, a move to the downside will beviolent if anything. That said, there are a number of fundamental factors that embrace a move to the downside. The first being an oversold condition in thedollar:
The recent spike in the dollar may be a sign that there will be increased profit taking and possibly some closing of carry trades. If that happens, a shortsqueeze is possible. Anyone with half a brain should have noticed the dollar weaknesses' affect on dollar-denominated assets and you can be sure that anyupside in the dollar will force stocks down. That along with the end of quantitative easing (the Fed had it's last POMO purchase on Thursday), the recentincrease in bank failures (9 failed yesterday), the CIT bankruptcy possibility (which is becoming stronger), and the possibility that the Fed may start endingstimulus efforts will dampen any further continuation of the current trend. I'm watching for a breakout to the downside in the SPY P&F chart which iscurrently channel trading.
Be wary of the following points in the market. The first chart shows volume at price for the last 50 days. Notice the amount of trades around the 103 level,that should be a significant point going forward. A bounce or breakthrough of that level will be important. Also notice in the second chart (which highlightsthe last 2 weeks of trades on SPY) that there is a lack of trades around the 107 level. Volume is distributed on both sides of 107 and it's the volumeweighted average price for this period. If the market can get back above 107, it's likely to trade in that 108-110 area.
