Hey Steve and Matt, thanks

    Hey Steve and Matt, thanks for the hard work, I was referring to shorting the indices, just not sure why there was no shorts on the indices, now I understand, because the system is reversion to the mean. Also for shorts, I was looking for more of the high PE, no profits setup (as oppose to profitable companies). Yes, the banks gapped down that I took a loss because I was about 50% in banks and my stops were not tight enough. Energy was OK. I put too much confidence in good earnings, like BAC, and some semis have good earnings and upgrades, all got smashed down. TSM earnings is just so good. So definitely not a bull environment. In a broad market drop these things got pulled down as well. It seems only DBA, corn, weat, soyb are bucking the trend. Let's see what happens on Monday.  SMH down candle shrinking. I did go small long (catching a knife). Not sure if we will see a big gap down or a reversal. XRT did not close at the low.

    thanks. again on days like

    Sydney - see below for index shorts via ETF's from Last Week - I suggest you start listening to EVERY newsletter and monitor the Watchlist.  More importantly, develop a PLAN that suits you instead of worrying about what others are doing.  The high P/E companies have been declining for months not just recently. 

    Simply too many companies to name - you weren't even a member here at that time. 

    Thanks Steve. I think your

    Thanks Steve. I think your short ETF is right on, excellent play. I did close my soxs today just in case the reversion to the mean system works. Also looking at the 5 min charts, smh seems to have a lesser fall after 272.6 area was lost, as opposed to spy when it lost 441.

    No problem - it's not

    No problem - it's not about being perfect (hell I'm not even close), it's about executing YOUR PLAN and what's right for you.  Don't look back and move forward.
