a stable couple days without much lift recovery will force margin called investors to cut and run, dont expect much strong quick recovering here, margin call selling will continue until monday, i dont think tech stocks will move much until end of this week and next week, mostly next week, i rather see mild gradual recovery than big 180 point NSDQ run today that would be met with selling, a mild couple days will lead to more healthy movesup

one way to headfake is to sell NSDQ via QQQ thus cuting a rally, continue to short it (even on downticks), and at same time MMs pull buy orders, this all takes a plus NSDQ down to negatives, easily fixed with QQQ short covering and reinstating of buy orders
