Rose or Sepia-Tinted Glasses?

Michelle B submits:

Reverend Shark aptly puts the sepia-tinted view forth, "...and if there weren’t some potentially serious problems out there -- particularly from the housing market and the sub-prime mess -- then the Fed certainly would not be setting things up for a rate cut."

The market, however, will do what it will do, but because I agree with the obvious implication described by the Reverend, I started a small core long position in the double inverse ETF, QID, near its intra lows yesterday. I will add to this initial position if the market removes its rose-colored spectacles which as of yesterday are perched ever so rakishly upon its bullish nose. If the pretty spectacles stay on, I will honor my stop loss.

Quoted

"The most important rule of trading is to play great defense, not great offense. Every day I assume every position I have is wrong. I know where my stop risk points are going to be. I do that so I can define my maximum possible draw down. Hopefully, I spend the rest of the day enjoying positions that are going in my direction. If they are going against me, then I have a game plan for getting out." ~ Paul Tudor Jones
