Can't believe the market lost +4% today!

What do you mean stopped at 3915? Who says it can't go down further tonight/tomorrow?

 

Ever thought about reversing and going short for once?

 

Babbling incoherently. Ignore.

 

Today is a big shorting day.

 

And yet we got:

USD Core Retail Sales m/m: Actual 0.6% > Forecast 0.4% just published yesterday on May 17 and if all three of them represent 80% retail, then where did that number come from??

 

I did and there were days like yesterday and May 4th that screw you just the same

 

Shorting is more risky so more risk control is warranted. Better yet only short during day trading. Overnight risk is too high in the current volatile market.

I shorted QQQ today only for day trading. No brainer.

 

That was for last month, April. The markets always look forward, not back.

 

Only for ones who don't know how to short correctly.

 

yesterday, there were many happy faces ( mostly traders from elitetrader.com).
there were also many sad faces (mostly investors from eliteinvestor.com).
