I still think shorts may get trapped today. It is Friday, yesterday was a big move. If there is not a real drive to sell between now and 5p. there could be a short covering rally. But, when it did not take off I decided to go flat and let the market tell me more.

Took one off again at +15. That seems to be my number today for some reason.

Stop moved to 98.40 for a 5 tick remaining risk.

Took minimal heat, about 8-9 ticks, back in the green at +14, should work out now.
