Your Right JRI..., those trades were posted and were losers.

>>I made good money this morn (shorted last Friday/covered this morn), but I am sick about the reason...

Yes.... I know...! Have a nephew who works on Wall Street, he heard the second plane hit, watched the first tower fall and then ran for his life.

I was unable to short the markets after Sept 11th...., and refused to until the 9/11 gaps were filled. Even today the shorts are just scalps.
Just don't have the stomach.

If I'd been positioned short before 9/11.., the profits would have gone to charity. During that period we we're on vacation and had no contracts open.

The market isn't worth trading today, and will probably be flat. But yes have not closed any position longs.

My Best,

Chip
