Exited the short RUT this morning took 50% to the Long side. There may be other plans for the 50% in cash. My st Rut Indicator is setting up,...what is a very bullish pattern ... this combined with todays liquidity situation and what looks to be some extra support here from the fed... and it is just to dangerous for me to remain short today even tho the RuT is still weak ... and my daily signal is still on a sell. If my st Rut indicator does confirm a turn up then the daily could be forced to turn up also. Trading safe into the end of the week. ;)

Exited my dow trade as well. This sideways correction at overbought levels could lead to another leg up. I'll sit out and watch from here.

IMHO, the Fed has gone absolutely nuts in these days, they are injecting so much with the short term repos and the coupon passes that it is nearly impossible probably to get a meaningful decline at the moment...

Good trade, RUT is a good hedge for a pairs trade still, I think.

SPX/VIX has bottomed and we haven't even had any selling.
Adding to longs here.
