    Commissions adds up in the long run

    Just reread your post, are you actually trying to trade to capture 1 large point or even less? If so, that is insanity. Capturing big moves can make you rich, the small moves will make your broker rich!

    Why is the market going up?

    No. If i were to go short today (which is unlikely, but you never know), i would carry it overnight unless it was a huge move down in which case i would think about covering. All moot points, because it's gonna go up :D

    Why is the market going up?

    It's possible for a trend reversal today, will short if it occurs. Don't forget NF Payroll tomorrow. If it's bad, market goes down, discounting recession and then goes up discounting qe3 a bit more.
