THE SHORT-TERM TREND IS UP, I HOLD BOTH LONG (TRAPPED) AND SHORT (TRAPPED) OVERNIGHT

QE3 or no QE3 tomorrow, the chart is arguing a top of some kind is close, if not today, because even it’s the blue arrow cases, meaning no immediate pullback tomorrow and even the next week, eventually SPY all dropped below the blue arrow day.
