Trade Ideas for 03/31/09

Carnage today, as the pent-up bearishness finally found an outlet. The market gapped down at the open, hard, and never rallied in continuing last week's pullback. Judging by the severity of today's decline, this correction isn't going to be a one-day thing. We might rally a little bit over the next day or so, but the bulls need some time to regroup before they can push the uptrend to new highs.

Sold today were TV, ITU, JNY, and ADBE. No purchases, as TZA gapped up far above the buy price.
