RE: Where are the Bulls?

Bill,
Are you suggesting the bull market is over? Or are you just talking about a 
retracement here?
I think the bull market is not over, but I do see a retracement to the 1000 
to 1150 range on March S&P futures. Since we've had such nice long up swing 
(September, October period), I think this may be one of the rare occasion 
for me to trade a reaction swing on the downside.
Happy trading
