Today's sell off is due to expectations of more European QE not being met

if fed raises, you really think this market will break ath when it sells off on news of more QE? unlikely

euro soars as Draghi fails to deliver more monthly QE, merely extends it to 2017 and includes local debt.

my guess is Draghi will hold off through Dec 16 and probably through Jan so that Fed is not hiking as Draghi is adding QE. Abe too may hold off through Dec and Jan to allow Fed to get this .25 hike over with. After the .25 (thats if its able to hike), Fed will hold off many months and Draghi/Abe will be able to do their QEs.

So that implies a bit of a rocky (some dips) Europe and Japan stock market until about Feb.and then buying on the dip and higher highs in all three markets

And I say this not because I think I could predict anything regarding markets but rather because, as many here have already said repeatedly, that if this scenario does not play out and if the Fed keeps hiking and/or Draghi/Abe stop QE then the market looks very dangerous as the CB juice is the main/only real driver

Look at the futures markets prior to Draghi...full melt up mode, a truly Pavlovian response...

CB's can't be so blind so as not to see that these markets literally do not function without "further instruction" from the round robin of CB's...Plus, with SP at 2100, Yellen goes "hawkish", lol...can't make this stuff up.

Just so I'm clear on what you're saying... since AD states that in down trends, its easy to call double tops, and yet, he claims we are in an up trend, then why is the double top so apparent?

The fact that there is a double top should point to a downtrend. Is this the correct logic you're trying to get across?

I do hope AD comments. Of course, maybe its just a dip.
