Can't post a chart now, but its there. TRINQ is at 5+ 60 min put/call flying. VIX/VXN going ballistic. With all that Volume isn't that impressive actually. Yes, 60 min charts looking down, but I wouldn't trust them in this volatility. Could swing hard either way.

I bought some ultra long hedges this morning but immediately they went underwater. lol

However, I think you are right we are due for some kind of bounce.

Just to make it clear, I'm not going all out crazy on longs here. And I still have some shorts left. And I'm about 70% in cash. This is an extremly different market and environment from the usual. This market can plunge into a freefall easily. Keep that in mind.

I hear ya. I am only buying to hedge. Look at commodities. They can still move double digit down even though many were already down better than 50%. What a carnage. I took CLF and AGU off my "super turds" list, though they are still turds. lol Only FSLR, MON, CF (substitute for POT - thanx) remain. IB asked me to buy-in SWN. @#$x!
