Why? What's the reason to short it at this point? Yes, it's counter trend, but that means very little. What if it lasts days? What if it lasts weeks?

Shipping index up, bank woe's in EU seem to be subsiding, FTSE into an inverse H&S - wall street held up its 8000 level for the umptiemth time, see no reason why this can't last a couple of days (besides, I just went long, so it better %%%#$% last)

BHP up 6% in Aus and the orders coming in fast and furious so far. Looks like a green day today - at least until 3.30 when the US gatecrashers come to the party

Hi John did you predetermine that 18600 level or did you go short on the break of the resistance line?

care to share your trigger with us John? Looks to me like you are using the bollinger bands, with entry somewhere around the median line, if it holds
