Ditto on that. Why fight the Fed? I'm expecting to take advantage of short opportunities but it I don't want to place myself in r/r ratios that I am uncomfortable and unfamiliar with. That being said, I am thinking about a longer term short swing in a few months.

I have to go with what the market action is giving me. I can't predict these events confidently enough to follow through.

Ok just took a short on IG index, my entry was 13985.5 - stop 14085.5

I don't feel that it will necessarily reach the 2007 high, i do feel that a big correction will happen soon.

Goals with this trade:

Well it all depends on how it pans out, if it drops but struggles at the 13920 area i may close there.

Ideally this would be a long term trade, but i'll only hold for more than a day or two if it shows clear signs of a reversal.

If Vista - Open MS 'Paint' and Paste into a new image, can then use the select rectange and do Image->Crop, then Save As new JPG before posting.

If Win7 just use the Windows snip tool.

Or lots like 3rd party tools like SnagIt, Jing, etc

Travel Well
