Volatility

107.60 SPY needs to hold on a close.

Else, 105-106 area is coming.

OPEX tomorrow so we could be just experiencing some near term volatility.

Keep those stops in place.

  3. thanks sam.

    Need patience here. Overwhelming sentiment is bearish. Why can't the selling get the SPY to break down?
    Something is brewing. Stops are set on all issues.

  4. Why shorting individual stocks can be deadly:

    POT
    MFE

    added 1/3rd RIMM on Friday just above $48. My stop on 2/3 RIMM is $47.48

    We could be bottoming in the markets or we could be falling off a cliff. Pretty tough stuff here. If you are not long and holding I don't think I'd get involved yet.
