Just can't go LONG this market!

Will look to short S&P, and also NQ after that blistering record move up. 

Not going long for a few hours.

2778 seems like a nice spot for a daytrade long with a 10pt stop, might get 12 handles

Yeah, looking for a bounce off 74/78, if it gets there

After the Friday gap up and continuation yesterday & today, the market may need some time to digest all this before resuming uptrend or reversing.

Short term might be up but I added to short on this bounce. News failed, so why would tomorrow be up ?

Yeah, this looks toppish, with a turn today or tomorrow, especially since NASDAQ has led the way down today. 

It could be an IT top has been made in the equity markets.

Took half off. I wish I could find a bear market to trade. I can't short bitcoin so that's out.
