Second, just because resistance is overhead and indices are not likely to make much progress, trade what is in front of you. If set ups are good, take them and protect yourself with a good stop loss strategy. Right now set ups are very good. Yes prices may turn at any time, but no one made any progress in the market worrying about what "could" happen. You have to take the opportunities that the market gives you and protect yourself against the turns by using good risk management.
