No guts, no glory!
The DJIA
I am holding shorts here at the open. The DJIA is flirting with the
support level we talked about yesterday at 10377. 10353 looks like the next
support level. I am holding shorts here with profitable stops at 10453.
Short/profitable
OIL
The hypesters and fear mongers are out in full force today regarding
hurricane Rita. I have stepped back into the game, trying to capitalize on
the waves of good news that may surprise. Shorting oil again at
67.80 averaging my cost to 66.88. As a speculator, I see this trade as
taking over uncertainty based on my conviction that oil has topped and Rita will
prove to be not as damaging as projected (if it all). No guts, no glory.
Just remember, these trades are highly risky, be sure to position size properly!
Short/loss
US DOLLAR
The shorts entered at 1.2213 yesterday are continuing to move from from
profitable to not. 1.2185 seems to be support at this time. Holding shorts
here. Short/profitable
