NQ / QQQ - Fade the gap up

Short
CME_MINI:NQ1!   NASDAQ 100 E-mini Futures
Not getting too emotionally wrapped up in the move higher today.

I think a likely scenario is a retest of the 20ma then a drop toward the 200ma.

I do have longs still (INTC, BA, ATHM), but I also think it's worthwhile to be set up if this bounce fails.
Comment:
So far so good. Investors not scared enough yet though. Last two days were a gap up and lower close. If we gap up again tomorrow, would really like to see if reverse lower more forcefully.
Comment:
Market doesn't care about the shortest distance between two points. So, one more test of the 20ma tomorrow? Until we get above that, I'm staying cautious.
Trade closed: stop reached:
We closed strong, above the 20ma. Should have been more bullish. Oh well.
