2016? That's quite optimistic :) I am just a day trader, and as such I live in a very short term frame, which means i'm not worried about what's the market doing next week.. Having said that, I believe we are way too overbought... Take a look at this article...

Basket Don't get lost on hundreds of stocks... lock yourself up in your office for a week and scan through the most important indexes and select 20 stocks that historically match and obey your set-ups... My list goes back 7 years, and i believe it was the turning point on my trading career.
