You are not the only one cautious on the short side ... I did 6 spoo trades
today, all short, and all protected by nearby stops ... a lot of work for
relatively small return however I am concerned that the relentless decline
through all identifiable support levels may bring fed/treasury operations
(anything from rate cuts to buying) to stabilize the market and I don't wish
to get nailed. What was particularly noticeable about today's short trades
was that from noon on, each break lower in the spoo had relatively small
follow-through ... not like the shorts which broke and steadily moved south
3-5 handles at a time. Also, the spoo futures would seem to hold up a bit
better even as the NYSE and NASDAQ cash indexes were moving aggressively
lower. Like you, I'd like to see a good rally here to make it safer to
short.
