BC,

But what is it that you see in the charts that made you sell now rather than at some other time?


I sold half because my calls were up 65% and I was not
certain if this was just a morning pump. (Futures were
ramped.) Besides they are April expirations and I have a
bad habit of letting them wait too long. I saw some
resistance and took some profit.

This allows me now to watch the action without an ounce of
worry. Good traders shouldn't need to do that, but then
again I'm not a good trader yet. <g><ng>

The easy money is made. So now I can sit back and enjoy the
ride and not sweat out the volatility of this (possible)
final leg up (the hard money).

Wish I had a better answer for you with some Elliott logic
attached.

Anyhow, I force myself to take a bit of profit when ever I
have a good guess like this one. <g>

I have targets along the way as they are reached I reward
myself with some profit taking. Next reward comes at
8520ish. If it breaks down I'll be out probably in the
8240s.
