Who else shorted the highs yesterday ? Plenty of bulls posting after the run up.

If you're always watching over your shoulder, then you have no strategy.  In poker, looking over your own shoulder doesn't avail to what hands they're holding.

I usually see wave 2's as 80% pullback.

I didn't short the close on Wed., but I bought a little SDS on Tuesday.  The bounceback on Wed. was strong, but I held to see what happened today.  Net, I'm down a little, waiting for Friday.

My swing trades typically last a couple of weeks to a couple of months.

Wave-ii can be anywhere from .146 - .886, with .382 and .618 being most common, though there are also running wave-ii's to a net gain.  The reason I labeled as such, is due to coming out of the contracting diagonal triangle... a back-test to the top of the DTL seemed necessary, and two tests have held, so it seems a successful wave-ii is complete... at least at this time.

I think it's best for the summer to just day trade the gaps, any breakout will likely go a little more then turn back, so there will be too much chop for swing trading if history is any guide.
