AA, after a late dinner - followed by a couple of oversized B&B's - I look at a chart and think, basically, in terms of "To be or not to be" - or "be what may"... -g. I traded over the past few weeks small positions of QQQ's, fairly successfully, both long and short. I hope I learned enough humility to keep me in the future from getting too impressed with my own opinions. As you said the other day - one has to remember to ask the question - "Is it trending?"

Still - a stubborn bear that I am - picked up some Oct, Nov. and Dec. puts during recent highs. Have been more conservative and careful this time. I think that the odds for a decline between now and then are pretty good... - so, I took them.

All best!

Your calls have been fantastic but the low volume on this ramp is a concern. Techs look tired and the only way that this may blast higher is on good news concerning Iraq (it would probably be just a spike).

I am beginning to short here with tight stops on some select large cap techs. I will get more aggressive on a spike.
