Beginning to look for a major drop after the 20th...?

I try not to get married to any scenario and just let the bars of the moment be my guide. For long term direction I use daily and 45 minute bars - based on that, market had to save itself and move up right away or more downside was almost a given.

It had a chance to move up at one point today and failed so I immediately switched gears to position for what I expected to be a big elephant trade.

I went short at 1213.75 and stayed there, changing from my typical scalp mode to bigger picture mode.

Still in. I only hold overnight if my position is immediately in the green for me and with a nice safe margin. Otherwise I just wait for another day.
