Market Smoked…

Well the good news is, I took a bunch of profits and went long FAZ on Friday. The bad news is, I decided to keep my solar plays one last week, only to receive the homohammer in a few of those names.

We had a bunch of mergers this morning that I thought might bring out the dip buyers, but so far they are missing in action. I’m curious to see if this move lower will continue throughout the day.

We needed this pullback, and I’m still viewing it as healthy for the market. When we get below 800 on the S&P is when I start to worry. Let’s take at the chart:

I’m looking for a pullback down to the 20 day around 830, which happens to be a retest of the recent green trenline break. If that fails, I’m looking for 800, or 791, which happens to be the 50 day. I still see a nice inverse head and shoulders formation in the making, however I’m playing this day by day– anything is bound to happen.

    Goldie, I think you may be right, but don’t underestimate the lemmings that created this last rally.

    The funds have covered their shorts from October onwards. The next downward drive has begun. So short right now. Why wait to make money?

    Still holding JASO with you, Cajun. I could definitely add here if need be. Any thoughts on adding to a position now or waiting for a lower target?
