+39.25 points, or $1,962.50 profit per contract...not too shabby for 5.5 hours of "work"

The catalyst was I saw it go all the way up to 4326 then drop back down to the 4310-4311 area...I also saw my volume indicators (that I have yet to allow to fully dictate my exists, and thus have left a lot of money on the table) tell me there's really no reason to exit a short yet...so I re-shorted.
Didn't really work out...but didn't hurt me either.
The trades I have posted here are part of a discretionary group of setups I've been cataloguing.
I also have an automated system that I do not post here...

We are headed for all time high prices on crude oil.

So that's four trades posted in this thread. Complete with entry & stop.
3 of 4 were winners....one for 40.75 points profit, one for 60 points profit, one for 39.25 points profit, and one for a 1 point loss on the E-Mini S&P futures contract.
Total profit = 139 points or $6,950 per contract (minus negligible commissions).
Look at what I do for you guys...for free!

PS. I still think this market looks very shortable right now...
my views on going long and short change within hours, if you haven't noticed...remember, I usually don't hold longer than a day...so unless I specifically state a longer time frame, my outlook is based on hours, not days.

I wonder if the SOTU address will provide a nice shorting opportunity...timing might be right
