I'm going to add to my bond short this morning, although I only hope it doesn't explode higher from here... mind you, I'm also writing December bond puts on my bond position for greater protection... for my stock account I'm buying TBT and writing the January 2013 22 Calls... I suspect bonds can't go much higher since the FED is already buying 70% of the bonds on the market... at some point rates will begin moving higher...

I bought my TBT this morning in the early sell off after the numbers were released... now, I just sit and wait for the regular opening and write those January calls and then sit back and wait until January... hopefully, this will be a relatively "easy money" trade...

After today's bond action, maybe it was a mistake after all in shorting those bonds... I'm going to reassess on Monday, stocks also look terrible and seem more likely to move lower, i may also want to short again... meanwhile, I'm flat and will take another look in Monday...

Meanwhile, have a good one...
