Hi Cobra,
Also on your 5-min SPY chart the green and pink lines are moving opposite of the market direction. I still don't know what each of these lines mean, but from your previous observations they seem to be in exactly the opposite of what they should be for such a strong up market.
They disagree a little with the trend but not strong enough, so let's see. green = FXA:FXY (may change to other currency pair later), pink = TLT.

yeah i dumped my crude longs this morning after the 102.98 gap fill i was waiting for. Still a gap up at 104.38 but action looks pretty bearish. not gonna short this beast though..

OK, again and again, I hate to say this, but still this doesn't look like a strong day, just comparing with how in the past huge gap up the first 2 bars went, besides, the momentum is now at its peak and pay attention to the EMA ENV, we haven't been up this much since the Nov bottom. Well, maybe the day simply starts slow, will catch up later?

No, it's not morning star. A morning star should be gap up above the previous bar. Two Doji here only means indecision, so it may continue up, too early to say bear.

Buying some shorts here. Either we head up to 1330 or down to 1250, but either way, the correction is not deep enough, so either way, shorts still look better to me than longs, and this is a reasonable entry.
I agree that this doesn't look like a really strong day so far.
USD is definitely going to collaspe over the next couple of months and I think equities will no longer benefit from weak USD - Gold will - I think I will reallocate to concentrate on PM's. HUI is at secondary reistance now - I think it will fall and retest fri high and then explode - today or tomorrow will be the day to buy in again if you don't have weight here.
SPX 55 and 14 ma are key and then the 20...

you are right on - be nimble!
I think playing the PM's will avoid all the guess work of equities in the next couple of months...
