As you remember I opened a long position in dug @28.35 about 10 days ago and yesterday took $6.06 p/s divedent. I am still mid-term bullish for dug. But due to the holiday season and low volume in the market, I decided to close that position. I believe it’s always better keeping in your pocket than keeping in the market. br /br /Closed at 29.29br /br /((6.06+29.29)-28.35)/28.35 = 24.7% profit

Why these people are still getting bullish as the market falls is out of my understanding but one thing I am glad about is, I wont be paying vacations for the next few years.

Just briefly checked some charts before the certain one catches me, looks like retail is still getting bullish as if they insist on giving me the final orgasmic blast to finish the year with an epic end.br /br /BTW, I see LOD is 852.75 on ES… That was the number I mentioned in my previous post and we need to break that level to crater towards sub-800 in coming days. Light holiday trading certainly makes this harder but at the rate retail is getting bullish, odds favor we can do it.br /br /I have included a trade setup for x3 small cap short (TZA). I bought some today around 55 upon future vacation plans were brought to the breakfast table. Hopefully, it will pay our vacations for the next few years. I think if ES opens below 855, TZA will break out of that triangle with a break away gap.br /br /br /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZdctlOEsqMQ/SVAkkaTNTKI/AAAAAAAABUg/c2JgevgcO7g/s1600-h/dc_capital_03+Dec.+22+14.59.gif”img style=”cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 237px;” src=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZdctlOEsqMQ/SVAkkaTNTKI/AAAAAAAABUg/c2JgevgcO7g/s400/dc_capital_03+Dec.+22+14.59.gif” alt=”" id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282762570859367586″ border=”0″ //abr /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZdctlOEsqMQ/SVAkkcvGuNI/AAAAAAAABUY/xOxl5UYk-7Y/s1600-h/dc_capital_05+Dec.+22+18.21.gif”img style=”cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 334px;” src=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZdctlOEsqMQ/SVAkkcvGuNI/AAAAAAAABUY/xOxl5UYk-7Y/s400/dc_capital_05+Dec.+22+18.21.gif” alt=”" id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282762571513247954″ border=”0″ //abr /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZdctlOEsqMQ/SVAkkBM-O7I/AAAAAAAABUQ/jdix-zDRykI/s1600-h/dc_capital_04+Dec.+22+18.21.gif”img style=”cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 389px;” src=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZdctlOEsqMQ/SVAkkBM-O7I/AAAAAAAABUQ/jdix-zDRykI/s400/dc_capital_04+Dec.+22+18.21.gif” alt=”" id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282762564122327986″ border=”0″ //abr /br /This is for the one who owns my heart and my soul.br /object width=”425″ height=”344″param name=”movie” value=”http://www.youtube.com/v/4IbPGxYWS_khl=enfs=1″/paramparam name=”allowFullScreen” value=”true”/paramparam name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”/paramembed src=”http://www.youtube.com/v/4IbPGxYWS_khl=enfs=1″ type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” allowscriptaccess=”always” allowfullscreen=”true” width=”425″ height=”344″/embed/object

After a quick review of the short term charts, I think the next possible short term low is somewhere around 770-780. Important confirmation will be a gap below 853 on ES tomorrow. Staying short from 864 , 890 and 917.br /br /PS: I am on vacation, I’ll try to update whenever I can.

Hi all,divbr //divdivJB3 here./divdivbr //divdivThis is a comment cleaner and a quick update on my active trades./divdivbr //divdivWas away for Friday’s session and had no net connection, so I covered my ES and left some protective stops on my EUR/USD short. /divdivbr //divdivThey didn’t get hit. This has turned out to be a very successful trade for me. I closed out a moment ago 1.3925 for a ride of approx 7 US cents. /divdivbr //divdivIt seems most likely that EUR/USD blew out of a triangle on friday. Unless the move extends, 1.427ish should be revisited in the next week or so. As I believe the larger trend is now back down, I’ll be on the sidelines watching the character of the move and possibly looking for another short entry if one becomes available./divdivbr //divdivI still hold a bunch of shorts in XOM, C, WYNN and MA. After a brief look at the charts, it looks like XOM is starting to break down. /divdivbr //divdivI’ll be looking to re-enter my ES shorts, but will be doing so as judiciously as I can because, like some other commenters, the charts indicate potential for an upside shakeout prior to the big move down. br //divdivbr //divdivSee you in the comments section…/divdivbr //divdivJB3/div

You know a bunch of lunatic suckers got hectic here on xTrends yesterday… Which nailed the top… Today they got more bullish despite the drop…br /br /When this is over, not only they will be bearish on everything but they will forget about the stock market as well.
