ISO on a QQQ short....

Well to the first point....my position was established at 33.69 in the QQQ. And if it can get up to 33.60-80 tomorrow I'll sell the second half of what I totally want to be short...Today's close and roughly high were at the 38% retrace level off the most recent high to the low...hardly the point to jumping out...Secondly, as I think miners and general equities are going to go down together at some point this month a short QQQ is somewhat of a hedge against falling miner shares I might still happen to be long..

Thirdly, I've found one has to give these indexes a little room. I'll end up risking maybe 2% total when and if I get the second half of the short on...No telling where these spurts will end...likely be right back down tomorrow..
