Market expect easing from Europe after no QE3

It was one of those confusing day when one could easily lose money whether one's bull or bear in this market. With no QE3, the whole market sold off. Dow was down 100 point in no time. One would have thought that, this market would give up all the gains it made, since last week over hyped central banker and fed qe3 rumor, which none of them happened. But, Dow soon recovered all the loss and gained 120 from its bottom, trapping all the bears and it looked as if market would rally till the close. 

After trapping the bear, it was the turn of bulls to get trapped. Dow sold off 120 point after fed speech. It looked as if the market will give up its gains again. Many shorted but it was adouble trap for bears. At the close Dow rallied up 75 point and covered 365 point in the whole. 

"Remember this market likes to go in opposite direction of what majority thinks. Since most of them shorted this market after no QE3, this market had to rally up or else who will make money if there are all sellers. Market is made up of buyers and seller". This is Casino stock market no matter which side you take you will lose money.

I am still bearish for gold and silver unless ECB prints money.
Now the focus will shift to Europe for easing as Spanish 10 year yield is close to 7 and earning season of next quarter.

Trading Strategies For June 21st:
Based on the chart tomorrow, market should open low and rest of the day depends on the rumor out of Europe. Since Monday, Dow has made 65 point.  I still think there is more sell off to come tomorrow and friday. http://tinyurl.com/6wcx273
