So....IMO
I may be making a mountain out of the molehill.....and I am NOT saying this is the BK....although I do think that we are on the forward edge of some down days....But::::::::::

1) The Blue chip trend in DOWN - IMO
2) Fed threatening to tighten if Asia Flu doesn't slow us
3) CNBC is saying Down (Don't laugh -they may be amatuers to educated traders but the masses buy/sell accordingly - I can state indicators of this)
4) Moneymanagers telling folks to withdraw 40% - 50% of portfolios (CNBC)
5) Many are over-extended into the market - Leads to irrational selling - My opinion
6) "Threat" of $20 oil by OPEC

TA and market data are most valuable in making educated trades - but we all should be aware that news, news events, public opinion has direct influence in the market. Obviously usually we can't "guess" the real news - But we should make allowances for it - and hopefully be ready to act on it.......
GREAT trading to all.......
