QUOTE(danmooncake @ Oct 31 2009, 02:03 AM) Loaded up another 1000 C @ 4.02. the crash is something to do with the rumours of interest rate, remember that posted somewhere last monday? Im seeing red sea this whole week. Yes, I'm greedy. Added on October 31, 2009, 4:10 amFinal damage for the end of the month: Dow 9712.77 -249.85 -2.51% Nasdaq 2045.11 -52.44 -2.50% S&P 1036.18 -29.93 -2.81% Is this the "crash" you're expecting? maybe it is an attempt Halloween scare the market is giving us traders. Wait till next week, we'll have more fun and scary show. Since we close below 1040, I'm expecting we'll go down another leg early Monday or Tuesday.. perhaps re-test 1020 and we'll bounce up again. I'm ready for more roller coaster ride as well. Good luck to all.. ! maybe time to relook at BGZ, MWN, TZA, EDZ, SRS etc |

If you do not already short last week, don't short now. Too dangerous!
Wait for the pop back up. Although pre-market seems higher but today is where things are likely to go south. Market may want to bounce up one more leg before diving. Again watch that VIX and Dollar and S&P futures index and of-course the ISM data. This post has been edited by danmooncake: Nov 2 2009, 09:47 PM |

Just curious, if someone were to short CIT at 70 cents a few days back, what would they be getting? Nothing or the whole 70 cents?
