The market wants higher. I will not try to get in its way.

But, I will look to start new shorts again, whenever the market looks tired. It might even be later on today.

I covered my pre-market shorts early this morning, but have put them back on now.

I am not a believe in this rally yet. I think there is a lot of volatility to come. FXY looks interested on the long side too.

On the long side, I like HAL here.

This is just a trade. I am short from $98.30.

I am not risking much ahead of the jobs report. I had too good of a week, so far, than to blow it on some stupid, meaningless, jobs report.

I am using 1,600 on the S&P as a line in the sand, deciding my bias. If we close below it, I will short. If we close above it, I will buy.

Stocks on my list include REITs, like AGNC (bought a little today) and O, AMAG, CIMT (bought a little today), HAL (bought some of this too).

If they rip them tomorrow, I am a seller. If the market tanks, I am a buyer.

Taking some small positions here, buying CIMT and HAL.

Made a killing. Closed out my IWM shorts and sold puts.

I am now in cash, waiting for my next trade.

I added to my $IWM short, making it a full position.

I believe this market to be toast.

This tape is toast.

Using this reprieve in the tape, with the Dow barely down 90, I threw half my shorts back on. I will make a judgement call about covering or adding to them depending on the close–the last 10 minutes of trade.

I am using IWM as my vehicle, both common and options.

I covered all of my shorts with the Dow down nearly 100. I will look buy the blood into the close.

I covered half of my IWM short, puts sold too,  below $97.80.

For now, I am letting the other half ride.
