A Clean, Well-Lighted Correction

BuDsTgEIEAAdEMz.jpg-large

I am still holding a piece of a TZA long (triple bearish ETF for the small caps in the Russell 2000 Index) which I initiated inside the 12631 Trading Service last week. After scaling some gains on Friday, I am debating whether to add back to or lock in the final piece, or perhaps leave it on and let it run.

This morning’s failed bounce illustrates that sellers are lurking into rallies, even though the market is indeed oversold. Still, if the bounce trade is crowded then the pain trade is lower.

Conjecture aside, I am keying off the 30-minute IWM chart. You can see the bear flag rollover threat today. However, we are back to Friday’s lows where buyers tried to step in.

So, if they present themselves again today with force I will take off the TZA and reassess.

Other than that I am in heavy cash and waiting for better trading setups.
