Even if your team gets crushed without prejudice for decorum and decency. You want etiquette - go play cricket. They will at least do it with a wink and a smile.
With that in mind and with each trading hour, I am stumbling towards the wrong side of the tracks and an oncoming train with my market call for a lower low. There were some clues - between the relative strength of the small caps coming out of the 1258 low and the extreme CBOE equity-only put/call ratio the week before. I discounted them in the immediate sense that a lower low was upon us. The markets have a creative way of taking your trading plan at times and doing the polar opposite. This incessant rip higher over the past four sessions - the velocity and magnitude, heck vector if you will - was what I was looking for - only 180 degrees south. It would certainly be a generous act for the market to continue the mirror opposite and promptly pivot back. That likely resides in the immediate sense with any negative surprise in the ISM number tomorrow morning. By all accounts - not very likely.

With that said - there's no crying in baseball. It simply is what it is.
