yes i have. and still will. because i know who's short and i know why markets goes up like this back of who's play. im not here to prove myself. i have been suprised in the past. but if you had the info i have, you'd trust me. market right now is very volatile. but trust me we haven't hit the bottom yet and a lot of BIG people are short. so i'm guessing being short is a good idea. remember i don't trade. also note inflation drastically pushes up equities.. this is while real economy is getting raped.. it's normal for market to go up like this in the worse of times, but you should be short from a longer term perspective.
even in the shorter term i don't think the big guys will let asia take profits.. geo-tradingly speaking, so i expect some big sellers at the close.. retails are not navigational.
both. short/long term. but if u can't afford the margin u might not be able take the volatility in the market at the moment.
i'm no genius and i don't know everything. but the equity indices are artificially, microeconomcally inflated up around 4%. the market hasn't gone anywhere in the past 2 days. it should be moving down.
