Steve, Because you want to be a Dark Jedi and join us on the Dark Side. I don't know, man. I put on my site that a new intraday high was possible, but this has got to halt and retreat soon or I'll have to dig the horns out of the garage.
IMHO,an astute trader needs to be aware that we are now in the trending mode which requires a mind set change from the non trending mode.My concern would be if unable to change gears the short position could get trampled by the bull.
I still plan on shorting in an uptrend but for me we will have to be out of the upper band on the daily and overbought 2 days on the hourly before I would short.
