That was easy! ; ;

In yesterday morning's PSW Report I said:

25,600 would be ;a great place to short the Dow Futures ;(/YM) ;if it fails, with tight stops above but ONLY ENTER AS IT CROSSES BELOW! ; At $5 per point, per contract, if you give it 20 points to the stop (25,620, you risk $100 but the Dow is up 600 points off Monday's lows and up 3,600 points since Christmas so it's very likely we get a 20{01de1f41f0433b1b992b12aafb3b1fe281a5c9ee7cd5232385403e933e277ce6} retrace of 600 in the short run and that's 120 points for $600 per contract reward and, if we get lucky, we retrace the larger rally by 720 points for a $3,600 gain – so I think it's worth a toss – especially in light of these frightening charts

Well, that's exactly what happened first thing in the morning for a nice, quick gain and we're right back there this morning for another chance to go short – but keep those stops in place! ; If they are going to keep giving us the set-up, we're not too proud to keep making money off it, right? ; Remember: ; I can only tell you what's likely to happen and how to profit from it – the rest is up to you!

8:30 Update: ; Oops, DISASTER! ; Retail Sales are down 1.2{01de1f41f0433b1b992b12aafb3b1fe281a5c9ee7cd5232385403e933e277ce6} for the month and, if it wasn't for a nice gain in Auto Sales, it would have been DOOM. ; Check out that trend – not pretty… ; ;Not only
