90 is the level I had in mind, perhaps 92.

I'm still long from 82, to tell the truth. I cannot remember holding a position this long.

I remember, October during the mini-collapse.

Anyway, I think it has a bit more upside.....I think 1104, 1104.3 maybe.

But if that 92 level gets hit after lunch I would be wary about day-trading the long side.....it would have to hit in the next hour or so to make me comfortable with it. I don't like weakness in the afternoons. Judging by yesterday, I think we could have a strong hour between 1 and 2 ET but the last hour really depends on the follow-up action after 2 and going into the bond close.

I saw a strategy on trading the spoo based on bond action on the Mid-Am after the normal close but I have to look it up. I don't get Mid-Am quotes anyway.

Cash is unbelievably strong. The tick charts just climb with little retracement. Nothing to tell me to close out my long as yet.

Banks up 17 (where's that at?)

Techs up a ton

Oil is up.

Yadda yadda yadda. I cannot sell this.
