is this a good time to start shorting or should we wait for it to go up to the all time high?

I think you should short this , 60k is still sooo far away. Yeah , you can short this, do it, do it now.

Wait for the pullback. Shorting now, you make it big or you can go bust....

Goldman Sachs think this market is due for the 3rd wave down...

should there be a pullback, the level it pulls back to would be useful both technically and fundamentally to work out possible future trends. But there is the noise that interest rate hile and lower commodity prices may move the market down. I still think that it would be an opportunity to bulk up those long term portfolois and trade the short term movements. If anything, the market may just trade sideways....

Don't anticipate that you think is going to happen. The next move should have enough points to make profit even if you don't get it early. Up or down doesn't matter. Just don't anticipate because you have a bias towards the market. Wait and then play.

@Rams, I am 3.17% up on my Massmart today, which means that you are a bit over 3.17% loss on your Massmart short. This investment is working out great for me.

@simon, behold the MSM soothsayer has spoken and he was wrong yet again. As for Kio, that is a long term play, price action does not bother me.
