ammo just curious how you brought your avg short up 6 pts on 1 short when you shorted 4 other times?just wandering how one short could move your avg up so much?only way is if you shorted 3 or 4 times as much as the the other shorts.
 
added to position at apex of move(i think)added a little less than 1.5 of original position,which i reduced on fri...my stop is 20 points on a full position which i hit once in last 13 months
 
We are on top of trading channell. There will be or spectacular break of it or we will see 1100 in short. Problem is that tomorrow is free day and such day are "reserved" for breakout that should not be possible during normal trading. This is the only reason why I am not making swing short but if we will be bellow trendline at Wednesday I will do.
 
so if you shorted 3,3,3,3 or 12 total then today you did 1.5 x the total or 18 more?so were your other trades 1.5 the totals? for instance if you did 10 would you do 15 then 28 and on and on?When do you know when to stop averaging up? so if this is a full position you have a 20 pt stop on the total?

Not to get too philosophical, but exactly which days do you consider "free"?
