    I got no market line yet,,,more damage to the account though,,,I sure hope I hedged this piece of crap right for when the YM opens. Can you guys imagine whats going to happen when this opens. Are you guys doing limit or market orders. I think I'm going to record this on Camtasia. This doesn't happen that often.,,,what do you guys think?

    Ripley,,,I didn't calculate anything,, the position is still biased short,, so hopefully I can exit for a profit.

  4. ES bouncing up off 50 SMA on the 15min day chart. Could be something; could be a bounce. I'm not buying. Not when a market is coming back online and it's Friday in August approaching 12:3opm ET. If Pisani is to be believed, the big Wall St. boys are packing it in about then and heading to their 8 figure houses in the Hamptons for the rest of August.

    Wouldn't be the first time an entire August sucked ass.

    I might add to ES if we break above 1288 on volume,,,things look like its going to be slow until 50MA catches up, were at Wednesday high, acting as support, If we take that out, I'm going short,,,and expecting this market to tank hard.

    :D
