[RT] Trading the Supreme Court Decision

Analyzing the possible outcomes of the Supreme 
Court ruling:
 
 
Ruling in Favor of Bush (heaven 
forbid):
will likely result in a rally (short-lived as it 
may be)
 
1) On C-Span, 
Reverend Jesse Jackson warned that massive demonstrations will be held in the 
event that the Supreme Court votes against hand-counting the votes in 
question.   These demonstrations may become extreme (heaven forbid), 
giving way to riots.  Currently prayer vigils are being held at Federal 
Buildings by PUSH and AFLCIO members.   News coverage of such unrest 
will very likely dissolve any possible rally.
 
2) The traders that the CNBC empty 
suits interviewed said that they planned on shorting the news, no matter 
the outcome.
 
 
Ruling in Favor of Gore (lessor of the 
evils):
3) A ruling in favor of Gore is highly likely to 
result in an immediate drop in the indexes; as experienced last Friday when the 
Florida Supreme Court ruled in favor of Gore.
 
 
 
Net/net  it looks like a high probability 
short sell of the Nasdaq bubble.  My entry point will be on a break of 
intraday support, with the price below both the 18 and 36 period moving 
averages, with a stop loss above both averages.   This system 
provides: 1) a logic entry, trading in the direction of the break-out, 2) 
trailing stop, 3) defined stop-loss exit.

Happy (and safe) short-selling of this Nasdaq 
bubble.
