...at what point would you consider that being short the SP may not be a good idea??? TIA Since about August - September of 2010 I've been long and adding long continuously since that time frame Shorting for me is always a scalp trade that often is allowed to run under good conditions I just closed those last short positions I don't screw around going long gold or gold miners To do so - at least in me - breeds a mental sickness that distorts the reality of other trading perceptions The emotional nature of gold is like Gorilla Glue - hard to get it off your fingers Now I ignore gold and thinking about golds value entirely - only occasionally for technical chart reasons - I just short the stuff...
