Of course the market may correct, and will at any given time. It can't go up every day! I am just suggesting that Manage Risk to profit. This Heikin Ashi chart shows the longer term (daily) trend, for now. Notice i am posting this with a neutral bias.
Use the longer periods to figure out the real trend. I challenge anyone to show how it is not UP. When the markets go down it will be 500 points a day in the DOW and 50 in the SPX. Trading only the "counter trend corrective waves" DOWN is very hard to profit from. If you use proper Money Management you can reduce risk, and lose only 2% of your portfolio on the...
Yes this is not a popular view right now, in the Idea Stream (although popular in the room I trade in).

A 38% correction will take us to the 2000 and 2007 tops expect more than that, look at 2003 and 2009

We got almost a 23% correction early in 2016. 38% to 50% are average Fib retracements. For a Full Bear market we could see SPX 673.
We are just beginning wave 5 down impulsive and complex to go below waves 1 & 3 This is a weekly chart pointing to the trend.
I modified my Stochastics to match Fibonacci numbers
