ok, so...PACBELL sucks!!!

Just needed to get that out.

I closed most of my short positions yesterday and closed my GFI long.

I kept a partial position of CREE short. I also added a QQQ long position that is twice the size of the CREE short.

My exits were not optimal as I losing my network connections in little pieces yesterday. First lost all browser connections, then lost my charts (esignal isn't browser based) and then lost my trading server connection.

I have a trading rule that I exit short term trades when I lose my tools. I try for optimal exits when I can and when I saw the trin pop over 3.0, that was close enough for gov't work for me. Oral and I were talking on IM yesterday morning and as the trin kept rising through the 2s, I mentioned that I thought we were going to hit 3.0 during the day and that is where I would exit.

I'm not looking for much of a rally and wouldn't be surprised if we kept on heading down.
