An early gap lower, but we've again seen the maniacs come on in, and we're now back in a zone of strong resistance. Its going to be extremely difficult for the bulls to break and hold over sp'1400.

Summary
It does look like we have a very likely bear flag - forming wave'4, on the daily chart. If that is the case, then the next major move lower will be it, for this initial down wave from the QE sp'1474 high.
A multi-week bounce from my target of sp'1345 to 1400/25...remains my best guess.
A break <1300 at ANY time in the days ahead, and I will merely chase the market lower, and would consider a crash as viable.
