low volume window dressing for quarter end....smells like it maybe time to go short again in the next few days.

Exactly.  Great 3 day sell off after hitting new highs now holiday/qtr end run up to a higher high. Dow 10,000 and S&P 1100 right before all the "great" earnings announcements.

Tyler, Tyler, your sanity and sober analytical skills will be your undoing. The markets are quite obviously celebrating the resounding defeat of Eurasia!

If you look at the SPY MACD since the Fed launched its QE campaign, it's ridiculously, almost ruler flat.  Spy just dipped under signal the last few days, and you've got to wonder what kind of adjustment is in store once QE is done.

use MGIP for the intrday comp charts. use CIX to create a custom index of an inverse UUP (i.e. - UUP Equity - named UUPINV). the Intraday G charts in BBG will allow you to invert axes but MGIP will not - hence creating the UUPINV.

Don't forget long term US Treasuries.  Evidently they did not get the memo today either.
