I lightened up even more today, in part, due to the fact that we may see a margin call swoon on Monday morning (or afternoon). I am still seeing too many bottom-calls and bottom-fishers out there to think we have a real tradable low. As a result, even some of the better performers of late, such as various commodity instruments, may also get hit if the margin calls ensue…Just a thought, who knows, but maybe even the precious natty gas will get hit as an innocent bystander to margin calls?
Also note the vicious breakdown in Japan. Many, many bulls were jumping on this bandwagon a few weeks ago. I am proud of 12631 members like @chivotrader who stuck with the short trade and recognized the crowded boat. Check out the potential for a major weekly move lower now, coinciding with the recent Yen strength I discussed this morning.
