Note the reverse Fibonacci Sequence 13, 8, 5, 3, 2, 1, 1. The central bankers plan to manipulate markets but perhaps the laws of nature will win out in the end as they always do. QE1 lasted 13 months, QE2 8 months, etc... From mid-December last year to now is the 2-month number in the sequence. The bitter end is approaching. The Fib's are at the roots at a one integer number now, so, a top is expected now, then any additional Fed pumps may only have a one month affect and the Piper will likely have to be paid now. Note the textbook rising wedge in red, a bearish pattern. The red lines show the negative divergence in place that wants a smack down and the collapses out of rising wedges can prove quite dramatic. The green lines for the RSI and MACD line show how the bulls want to squeeze as much life out of this puppy as possible so two potential paths are provided. The brown arrow simply says the downside starts at anytime and we start to explore lower numbers. The teal arrow shows a down March but a recovery to satisfy the green lines for the indicators, and bring price back to the apex of the wedge, which is the 1550-ish that many technicians are looking for, then collapse.
