I've jumped the gun on my system and went short. I think there could be one more push up but I see 5 waves up for Wave 5 and with 1199 being 423.6% of Wave 1 I'll take my chance on being short for the larger degree Wave 2 pullback. If this market decides to make a running correction for that Wave 2 then it's likely a trend change and I'll be a Bull again, but I feel the odds are low for this, but feelings usually cost me lost profit.

Yes Sir!
i hope so. the internals (the ones that al_dente uses...though he seems MIA today ) are tracking back to the bearish side...still think it's early to call the top, but i'm liking what i'm seeing. some follow through below this morning's breakout...
Believe it or not. Still holding trapped 1/4 short.
Last night, my mechanical model gave a weak buy signal. That is most variables were soft but price momentum strong enough to compensate.
McClellan Oscillator and ARMs ratio seemed overbought at the same time.
So, I don't think the market will run away from me, and there should be a downdraft by the end of the week. Unclear how big it will be.
Downdraft will be used to close short and unwind hedges to go net long. Though I wish the buy signal were a bit more convincing.
Hedges have nice profit from July. Hopefully, downdraft can tip short into the plus column.
A stop is going on in case I am completely offbase here.

Entered shorts at 1/10 of position at 1170, 2/5 at 1190, and 1/2 at 1198...stop 1210ish....watching today's close. Up 40% in last month, but only 20% ytd.
Markets hit my resistance level that I was cautious about last night...and they obeyed it like no other...
thats why I was cautious last night and im suspecting it could reverse..but I think it all depends on ZB for the real direction.
WOW ZB breaks down from a head and shoulders, comes back up above the neckline and breaks channel resistance, and then breaks down below....so much f word volatility.
