 That pdf details many institutional block sells intraday during the first quarter of this year. Many of those stocks listed had exposure to the Greek and Euro crisis of that quarter. Others were Biomeds AMGN and other awaiting FDA approvals or denials, and only a handful of continued into a downtrend (of those whos fundamentals were sceptical at best) i.e NILE
 
 Though I agree with commodities at this time, I see this publication as just a scare tactic like many others published by contrarians when they realize they are on the wrong side of the market and are trying to shorten they're losses.
 
 The artificial degrading of the dollar is the only reason this market is moving now and paulsons investment into the dollar basket recently tells me that may be coming to a close as euro block is again under pressure and china is curbing its growth. The fear factor is back.

 Hi karennma
 
 I agree! I trade puts and options using Ken Roberts criteria. How do you trade, what possibly. And how often?
 
 Do you trade the mini's, options or ?
 
 thanks in advance
