This was an ugly day…low volume rallies and high volume breakdowns. Are we heading for a correction or a crash? I can sure ask the question, but I have no idea about the answer…I can only play ‘em one day at a time.
I’m still sticking with my bearish positions via TZA and TWM along with some QQQQ puts and VIX calls…and boy was that stance a pain today. But it worked out by the end of the session. Patience pays. It was a great 10-year auction today, but offset by an ugly consumer credit report. The credit report won…or is that lost…with all the indexes ending in the red.
The worry over PIGS is back…just in time for an ECB Monetary Policy meeting on Thursday. And back in the homeland we have Retail Sales, Initial Jobless Claims, a 30-year bond auction and last but not least, Tiger returns to the game. So if traders are not busy worrying about interest rates or growing debt, they’ll be watching TV. 
Sometimes, entranced by the screens, watching equities, options and futures change colors, charts moving in a wave, and indicators pointing in every direction, I just have to scream....
