May 21 ( Gain $132.11 )

I was somewhat surprised when TNA rose at the open, and doubtful it was real?!
I held my TNA short that I put on late in the session yesterday.
==========
10:33    Covered 500 shares of TNA at 50.47   Gain $91.07.  Still holding my 200 shares long TZA which is down only $37 at the present time.
==========
1:08     Shorted 500 TNA at 51.38.  Covered about 5 minutes later at 51.29 for a 41.04 gain.
==========
1:40    The 51.21 support seems to be holding well on TNA; four out of the last seven candles have bounced off it.
==========
1:46   TNA broke support.  My gut had been telling me to short, but with the way the market has been jumping up off any dip in price, I didn't trust to do it.   Mainly because I didn't re-enter short at the top after taking my scalp gain at 1:08pm.
The market is actually acting normal (?) so far today.  Odd for a Tuesday!
==========
3:38   TNA is just churning and chopping.  I was holding on for a potential break down or break out, but it is 'dead in the water.'   Moving average on my 15 minute chart is horizontal.  Like I said, dead.
==========
4:00   Still holding my TZA long swing trade.  No other shares held.
