Why are you guys short - I can't see anything that says short
I'm fine with the short position I have. Should I get stopped out, that's fine, I'll have another trade to take at another time.

Looks like she is refusing to go down today (failure to break lower) so I just placed a buy order on the 21ema.

She looks to have broken my tl on 4h. I have another one around 4920!
