Re: DH, what is a typical amount

for the index to drop between mid Oct and mid Nov. I know these markets aren't typical but I'm trying to feel for what the index needs/wants to drop to for a guideline and also how much will futures try to outrun it. I would have to say it's already put plenty of distance away from the index and may want to rethink how fast and far it may have jumped the gun or will it continue to feed off of every $1 drop the index has. Another thought is that the index may find reason to stabilize at 100.00.

Since yesterday the technical sell signal have gone off like fire alarms but I don't trust my short positions at 92.40 or the ones I added at 91.60 this morning and the alarms say add more at 90.80 which also have possible bear trap written on them so I did not have the courage to add more risk. I also have that weekly chart gap at 86.00-87.00 tempting me to no end. I know better than to get greedy but I have an addiction sell signals as well as buy signals. To add fuel to the arguements going on inside my head are a mass of hedges at the 93.00 and they are screaming to sell more here at 90.00 but they wouldn't do it yesterday at 92.40. I did give in to a few on the bounce to 91.00 that know how to manage their risk. This one of those days I find very difficult to keep emotion under control. It would help if the cattle and corn markets weren't so volatile in the same week. My mind feels like its about to blow a fuse.
