A lot of it has to do with the RUT moving up 12.7% in 3 weeks. 2303 to 2596 ----- 293 pts. The huge outperformance of small caps over the Mag 7 and their larger cap minions is much like the dogs barking too loudly. I still have longs but am now net short. It's more short term strategic rather than expecting a significant correction but if it goes that way I won't be caught flat-footed. Longs that I shaved the most after targets hit can be reloaded if a pause-like pullback takes their charts low enough then turn up again. 81 trades today, largest was just 21 shrs. I just dial long/short up and down as a fine tuning adjustment process. When the market is rising, longs bring a net up day. As tuning progresses and the market gives some back, the shorts bring a net up day. With the list I'm working from, it's not too difficult but takes constant calibrating. I'm not so short that an up day tomorrow would cause the short positions to send me negative as long as one or 2 of the longs outperform a bit while a down market would allow the short positions to dominate net and keep me green. The day usually stays about flat until either one or two longs start rolling or the market starts dropping appreciably. Today, SATL, ONDS, RR, TMQ, HYMC were the "one or two" longs that more than counterbalanced the short positions. POET got a good trim while it was close to the mid-7s so a deep enough dip from the close from here could get me slowly adding. GSM got about the same treatment as POET. Closed out ASYS at the top. It'll need a real good dip to start back in. RR and ONDS nearly closed out. They've been very good over the last several months. Overall today, most long positions shrunk, one short position grew. I'm in good shape for whatever tomorrow brings.
