That has been some decline since 1 am UK on the Dow....365 points down so far and its only 8.20 am...
17488 high to 17123 as I write... The Prior lows made on Dec 21st of 17113 look like being tested.
I have 3 cycles this week of interest...that may suggest 4th 6th and weekend 10th/11th that may be a triple bottom forming from today..
but I think if Dec 21st Low breaks... I suspect the market is to remain longer term bearish..
I cannot see any indication of a FOMC report this Wednesday Dentist.. at least for the USA..
Reports out today..some Europe and USA..UK time
