Stock Market Commentary

Yesterday was a true selling day for the market, with all of the averages down at least 1.5%. The reasons for the decline are of no matter. It is simply a warning shot that the market is due for a correction. I found it interesting that the futures pointed to a rebound early this morning, but slowly declined into the open, and now the market is down as I write this about 11 am. If there is follow through today, then yesterday's action suggests a correction is at hand. If another true selling day occurs within the next week, then the easier money will likely be made on the short side. For now, it is a good idea to consider both long and short trades when daytrading to hedge your bets.
