OT: I almost covered my KLIC and MU shorts, at the close. However, KLIC came up to $7.90 and turned down, indicating $8 may (just may) be resistance now. MU took out the August low, reaching a price last seen in July 2009. When I back-test my results, a consistent mistake I make, is both buying and selling too early. And I did it again recently, buying solars too early. So I am forcing myself to wait till I want to pull the trigger......and then wait a while longer.

Welcome to our no-limit no-liars poker game. The dealer sometimes let you see your cards; you have to figure out the rules for yourself, and notice when they change.

OT re MU LT long position:

Do you have a plan, for what you'll do, if MU keeps going down? Will you buy equal-$ amounts, if MU hits $4? $3? Will you take profits on rallies, perhaps selling half if MU gets up to its 50dma (now at $6.32)?

I will consider covering my MU short, if the SOX bounces in the 325-330 area, where it bounced repeatedly in August and September. But I'm also still expecting SPX 1020, which implies a SOX well below 325.
