Despite every reason to expect a possible crash tomorrow or Thursday... it may NOT happen???

When things didn't go according to plan today (expecting a continued move up with, perhaps, some weakness at the close), I went back and reviewed everything I could possibly look at...

- unless the lems get running in the next day or two, from a technical standpoint, I have to believe "support" - whatever that means - will hold and we may see a strong move UP (gack). Yeah, this still fits in with my volatility call for the week but I thought it would be up the first part of the week and then down the last. Not up down up...

- if this is so, it could REALLY get the shorts running and cause a very strong pop in the market... but I was not expecting such a strong pop.

I have (fantasy money of course) 100 djx calls at the 102 level and 450 MRK puts...

I am trying to buy some really cheap HM calls just as insurance... figure gold will pop if the market tanks.

Best I can do for now:

^XAL ready to turn bullish but still a mixed negative pix - Airline Index (AMEX)
^BIX ready to turn bullish but still a mixed negative pix - Banking Index (S&P)
^BKX ready to turn bullish but still a mixed negative pix - Banking Index (Philly) Options
^BTK should catch a strong buy in next couple of days??? Biotech Index (AMEX)
^BMX should catch a strong buy in next couple of days??? BoxMaker (Philly) Options
