Nasdaq definitely has my number.....I walked in the door just now and tried to Sell some e-minis at market using the Internet and inadvertently sold pre-set N-Minis. Fortunately I saw the mistake right away and put in a Limit order a point and a half below my entry and was filled right away, covering the vig. Earlier, right after I posted to you I tried to close my Tradestation NASD screen and the computer locked up. I hate NASD. The Stop I have on the SP is high because my entry was back on the 11th at 1516. It's 1496 on SP0Z; but I'm not planning on getting Long there. I think the market only looks long (per SP) because it tested the 200 dma. (1446 roughly on the SPX). It was bound to bounce from there, and so I added by selling minis (after the N-mini error) and I'm taking the chance that the 200dma will not hold on the next go around; provided I get a chance on a "next go-around".
