Look at #66. That is a crazy up move, that needs a serious correction. That short looks better than China.

what’s interesting is that commodities are getting whacked as well. Speculators obviously active in those markets as well.

I agree that a short play on the Sensex could make a pile of cash. But we have now entered a phase where the "big boys" are going to begin playing high-powered games with the markets. We may have tens of thousands to invest in a short play, but there are many investors with millions and some with billions. One day of a short play going in the wrong direction with gusto would put you in a very bad spot.

In other words, there's too much market volitility. Once things settle down to where the index is only losing 1-2% per session then it might be a great opportunity to go short.
