Very oversold, watch RSI, once it drop below 50 center line it's time to lighten up on shorts position. until then bulls will have a hard time.

Plan to add more ~< 58.25 ...
Out with a gain of ~ 3.5%
It is still a counter trend trade...there is probably more though...

This is why you had to avoid silver or gold or gold miners. Correlations are too tight on gold and silver, hence no major buy signal. Precious metals are a strong avoid.

Just got off the phone with my broker and his people are saying to exercise some caution.
Oil was only a part of our discussion but it was an important part. The gist of the call was that the risk/reward ration is not very favorable right now and I agreed, perhaps more fervently than he would have liked.
And if you look at XLF today??? .... it's certainly a head scratcher

I will be the second person to ask you, to refrain from posting such small type.
I can not read it.
Nor can anyone else.

I have never seen anything like it. P Bar city.
The VIX future is behaving in an orderly fashion.
The bots are up to something. Gives me the creeps.
Makes me think some shoe will drop in due course.

do you remember the rule?
Retraces less than 50% = dead cat?
More than 50% retrace = cat is alive?
or what?
[serious question]

She's been asked before and obviously doesn't care. I suspect it's symptomatic of some passive-aggressive trends.
