ES Journal - 2015

where you shorted?

i never plan or place trade on a 'mega reversal'. on right side, a gift. wrong side,i set to work out a solution.

dont put words in my mouth
 
I didn't "call" for anything. I just said yesterday's close was "consistent with" with a trip to the 2050 area.

I don't make predictions. Really. I would have been just as happy to go long under the circumstances set out by BigSnack.
closing my short here, btw

Sigh. I'm not putting words in your mouth. You said I "called" for 2050. I explained what I did, in fact, say. That's it.
