1. hey shortie. I would trade it, and put the longs in what is long term (retirement).
2. Do you want me to give an anology of market and a man who goes high and has a net used to two reasons: 1) safety or 2) to try to break it and fall thru it. Let us call that man Mr. Market....
Just let me know, and I will expand on the example. It gives a visual aid to market behavior. it is rational.

Folks, here is how I traded it today. I am copying and pasting the trading post from RFT's blog:
"As predicted in the article of 12 hours ago, today October 10, 2008, we declare the end of the Stock Market Crash 2008. We are back to normal trading--Stock Market Crash 2008 Ended Today 10-10-2008 (10/10/2008).
1:19PM: with NXD at 1219, we are starting to scale in on long side.
1:49PM: with NXD at 1198, we have added a second part to the position.
PROFIT TAKING:
3:35PM: with NDX at 1315, we are offloading the long position.
More than 100 NDX points profits is enough. LONG LIVE THE BLOG!
"

Quote from shortie:
my longs are left-overs from intra-day trading. i am trading out of them when the market rebounds like today (some losers from yesterday actually became profitable today).
i would not mind hearing the explanation of your analogy.
