Debt crisis: live

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/f...isis-live.html

Seven Sentinels will likely go to a CONFIRMED sell today. That's not 100% confirmed, but if this market remains at this level by the close I expect to see a confirmed sell signal.

I did move from 100% F to 94% F, 3% C, and 3% S. I am not bullish here, but taking a small risk that support will hold. I'm also willing to hold long term at this level and scale in in very modest amounts if this thing falls apart. No reason to take outsized risks here imo. At least not until the picture becomes a bit more clear. Sentiment is iffy, although our survey is looking like a buy for next week so far.
