Closing here short at 1328 which leaves a 30.5 points profit.

I updated the performance sheet of the blog.

Close Short

While the futures drop about 2% now , I suspect the market may bounce or close today at no change level. Therefore I close my short position here at 1268.50. Means taking 26.5 points profit.

The market is in situation of to be or not be. It can drop much further but can reverse from here at least intra-day. I dont take any chances.

Special update

While Market breadth indicators suggest a potential bottom , I don't like the recent price activity.
I may look for a good opportunity to close the long position. BSC collapse doesn't help much to calm the panic.
Maybe Mr. Bush will do the job later today.

Update

The decision to reverse was a mistake. I saw some up momentum but it was too an aggressive trade which doesn't fit the blog.

However , I think breadth indicators suggests market is close to be bottoming.
It can slide down more but the correction is at the corner.Therefore I keep the long even with this drawdown. If you feel you can't handle it than you should step out and close position. I don't see the correction occurs tomorrow morning (though I would be happy if it would) but rather a complex pattern of few days. Patient is the key here.

Still holding the position

I am still holding the short from 1387.
If anyone of the readers wants to bail out , it's OK. feel free.
I see further move down as the support at 1325 should be broken to the next station which lies at 1302.
