well I got trapped that time...tried going long on the first pullback after the spike high at 1713 and lost five points quick..seems to be plenty of sellers ....that was the perfect short right over that top too...should have played it like usual instead of trying to go with the trend.. more often than not when I try to play with trend I lose money and when I play counter trend Imake money.. sheesh.. rok
